Leadership and Innovation

Small Business as the Foundation of a Strong Economy

Numerous studies continue to show that economic growth and innovation come from small businesses. With all the focus on large companies, it is easy to forget the importance of small companies. Geri has found that for most small businesses, focusing on the local market has many advantages.

  • It is much easier to market and sell your business locally
  • You can gain local renown and become a leader who influences the local community
  • You may drive new innovations in your niche
  • You contribute to strenthening the local economy
  • You help build a strong sense of community in your area
  • You can use you local success to grow your business into larger regions, or even globally, if you desire

This talk inspires people to start their own companies, and reminds local governments of the imporance of supporting, not hampering, the efforts of small business owners.
