Growing your business is something that most entrepreneurs strive to do. The reasons that they want to grow their businesses are many and varied and they include the following: increase profit; position it to sell at a higher value in the future; provide employment opportunities; contribute back to the community; build something for their family; satisfy their competitive nature; they never quit. Regardless of the specific reason, most small business owners are looking for ways to grow. Without growth, the business owner runs the risk of stagnation. You should know that 95% of all new businesses in Canada fail within their first five years of operation. So, we can ask ourselves this simple question. Do we grow or do we run the risk of withering?
There are numerous resources that we can call upon in order to support our business planning and decision making. One very comprehensive source for content is Small Business Solver. This is a web based resource that is chock full of information that can be used to help guide the small business owner to a greater understanding of how to succeed in his/her business.

There is also a significant discount offering from Staples that is provided as part of the low annual subscription price.
If you believe in life long learning and the enrichment that this attitude delivers, then I’d encourage you to consider a $250 (plus tax) subscription to Small Business Solver.
