A small Small Business summary
Small business is a term that is used day-to-day. That is
because in the past decade the rise of small business has been
larger than in any other decade prior. This is largely due to
the increasing number of services that are available to small
business owners, to enable them to keep their business running.
There really isn't any guidelines for when the term small
business is used, however it is simply defined as a business
which has a small number of employees. How few employees is
debatable, and the definition of when a business changes from a
small business to a larger corporation varies both by country
and industry. This number is generally less then 100 employees.
As mentioned before small businesses due to their nature, are in
most times sole proprietorships, partnerships, or privately
owned. Common in may countries, small businesses, are most oftenly related
to: accountants, restaurants, guest houses, photographers, small
shops, hairdressers, tradesmen, solicitors, lawyers,
small-scale
manufacturing etc.
Small businesses in often cases are located in private homes,
for two main reasons. The first is because it is economical and
in most cases convenient. The second reason is that there are
several benifits with tax,etc for having your business in your
home.
Running a small business is an exciting venture, and a great way
to introduce yourself into the business world, and to gain
business sense. If you are interested in starting your own small
business, I would recommend having a talk with a local lawyer or
accountant, who will be able to answer questions that are
specific to your local area. Good luck with your new venture!
