Small and medium business is at the heart and soul of every nation. But rarely is it recognised as such and given the support it deserves. More than 50% of employees in the USA work for a small and medium enterprise and fully 99% of all businesses employ fewer than 500 people.
But show me the breaks awarded to business owners, the start-ups, the entrepreneurs...
Where are the annual bonuses or the government bailouts?
Running a small business is always hard, grinding work and business owners are rarely recognised as community leaders. Your business may pale to insignificance when compared to a Fortune 500, but collectively businesses like ours are massive.
And running a business is not easy. It is nothing like the average day job where you can just walk away at the end of the week, pay cheque in hand or simply turn off when the clock hits 5pm each afternoon. And in some countries, if your business fails then it is your family home on the line (show me a government bailout for this!).
Your business is your livelihood, your lifestyle and in many cases a big part of who you are. If you are not careful it can become all encompassing, engrossing.
But – it is also incredibly rewarding. Freedom. Wealth. Passion. And if you're lucky the opportunity to create lasting change.
And this is what WORKetc is about.
We are the engine room for fast growing companies, powering integrated CRM, Projects, Sales, Support, Billing and more.
My goal for WORKetc is to have our customers sit back at the end of the day and think “today was just a little bit easier than yesterday because of WORKetc.”
It is that simple.
