CELEBRATE SMALL BUSINESS

Joy Greenwood

Updated: Jan 26, 2022


Every huge company in America was once a small business.

Whether started in the spare bedroom, at the kitchen table, or by clearing out the garage, they fought through the school of hard knocks and sleepless nights to get where they are today, and are likely still facing daily hard knocks and sleepless nights.

We celebrate small business every day because 90% of our customers are those glassy-eyed and exhausted entrepreneurs, who revel every day in the fact that they are their own boss and are in control of their own destiny. If you don’t already own a small business – chances are – you work for one!
