Hi, all, We've all seen the data; the vast majority of small businesses do not survive five years. One of the purposes of my new blog is to share lessons I've learned from clients, colleagues and friends that have helped me survive for over 20 years. The blog is called "Small Business Success: 20 Years and Counting." (http://www.yourghostwriter.com/blog) I want to start profiling other small businesses that have survived for five years or longer. The profiles will take the form of a Q&A. If you would be interested in having your business showcased in this forum, please e-mail me at jeanne at yourghostwriter.com and I will send you a set of questions to be answered. (My only stipulation is that you have to have been in business at least five years.) I market the blog through social media, including Twitter, where I have a good number of Western MA followers, so there's a good chance of getting a local audience for your profile. I hope a lot of you will be willing to share your secrets to business success! Best, Jeanne Yocum | Principal ____________________________ Tuscarora Communications, Ltd.
