New Hope and Support for Small Businesses

Businesses of all sizes were hit hard by the economic downfall this country has been dealing with, but did you know that small business generally recover faster than large business from such downfalls? In fact, small businesses are currently showing sustained growth in hiring, with nearly 150,000 new jobs created since June, 2009. Here at Coupon-Gurus, a small business ourselves, we think that is important news, and our own company is actively in the process of expanding and hiring new employees currently.

However, despite this small business upward trend in hiring, the tracking of these small business trends and behaviors tends to slip through the cracks when it comes to business indices. Small businesses with 20 or less employees are often simply left out, while measuring employment at only the much larger firms. Yet it is small businesses that make up 87% of all the U.S. employer firms, employing over 20 million people, and signify the American dream of business opportunities for not just the “big guys”, but the “little guys” as well. That is why Intuit decided to create a business index specifically for small businesses.
