Some observations as a trainer, advisor and coach to small business owners

1. Most business owners are just to busy or lazy to succeed
2. We aren’t good at marketing but we don’t make the effort to learn
3. We pay accountants to prepare financial statements we don’t understand
4. We start businesses without checking the viability of our ideas
5. We don’t attend seminars and training programs for small business as we don’t have time, but we spend on average 27 hours a week watching TV

Then we complain that the failure rate of small business is high
