PBS series schools us on small business
March 26, 2008
Small business owners have it tough. Forget about floating holidays, cushy benefits or corporate IT support; oftentimes, they have only themselves to rely on in a jam.
That’s why the producers of the PBS series “Small Business School” aim to make successful small business owners larger-than-life.
Dedicated exclusively to telling the stories behind small businesses, the weekly series takes you inside hundreds of companies so you can learn from owners who are the best in their category.
The business owners featured on the show have created jobs for at least ten years, they are considered leaders by their peers and they’re often beloved in their local communities.
And - I’m telling you this because - starting today, clips from the show will be featured on The Daily Record Web site.
Each day, a 1-4 minute video clip from the show will be offered, courtesy of Producer/Host Hattie Bryant (above) and “Small Business School.”
Take a look at today’s clip, and let us know what you think the unique challenges of being a small business owner in Maryland are.
