Top Ten Opportunities in 2008 for Personal Businesses
The U.S. Census Bureau started producing annual nose-counts of “nonemployer” businesses — that is, firms with no paid employees other than the business owner or owners — in 1997. Since then, their numbers have exploded. The total number of U.S. firms grew by 21% between 1997 and 2004, and almost all of that growth consisted of nonemployer businesses (also called personal or single-person businesses or the self-employed).
You wouldn’t think that these smallest of small businesses could be such a big deal and, individually maybe they aren’t. Collectively, however, they numbered 20.5 million as of 2005, almost 80% of the businesses in the country, and they raked in about 8% of GDP that year.
It seems that circumstances came together in the final years of the 20th century to make the nonemployer firm a growing force in the U.S. economy. The technology that lets a nonemployer firm communicate with customers worldwide and operate a business on a 24/7 basis matured. In industry after industry, technology has lowered barriers to entry as well. And, in a service-oriented, knowledge economy, it became possible to construct a business with no more inventory than the expertise and information lodged in a human brain. In many ways, the 21st century belongs to nonemployers.
So, what are the best opportunities for these nano-businesses going into 2008?

Data Security A Must For Small Businesses
Security should be a priority for a small business. I just went through a 'crash and burn' event with my computer. I had just purchased an external hard drive back-up system and programmed it to back-up every day. When my computer was finally fixed I downloaded all my informtion back into my computer and have not mssed a beat since. I shiver at the thought of loosing all my data. You should, too. Safe guarding that same data against someone else is necessary, too. Just because you run a small shop that serves a local market doesn't mean your data is unimportant to someone. Customer data, in particular, is always valuable.
