Business Warriors News Releases

We're trying to take the pulse of small business in South Africa and the results will be here

We've been talking to small business owners since 1993. There a lot of us, and the government keeps telling us how critical we are to the future of South Africa.

The challenge they face is that it's almost impossible to get inside the mind of an entrepreneur when you hold permanent employment - which the relevant government employees do.

The result is that they have no clue about what drives us, what scares us, and what motivates us. Nor do they know how many of us are going out of business right now. We're like the Golden Toad - invisible. (That's a bad analogy, I guess, because no Golden Toad has been seen since 1989. I have seen a few small business owners lately, although not nearly as many as I would hope.)

This month, the first of a series of surveys. This one is one our personal banking habits.

I have received Peter Carruthers' Pete's Weekly emails for a number of years, and been a member of Business Warriors since its inception.

As a BW member, I can honestly say that it has stimulated much thought and many good ideas in my business. For someone working in a small business environment, BW is fantastic in providing diverse thoughts and comments, much of which is of great interest and importance.

I strongly recommend membership to all business people.
