As the economy improves (slowly but surely), more owners are investing in their businesses again.
New data shows 1 in 5 small business owners will invest capital in marketing, technology and expansion this year.
Ways include “email campaigns, landing pages, banner ads and social media promotions,” says Lori Bolas, spokeswoman for SurePayroll.
“Small business owners are looking for an easy way to outsource time-consuming essentials to concentrate on growing their businesses,” she explains.
Bolas says owners are working smarter (vs. harder) and outsourcing in areas like
customer relationship management to avoid the hassle while reaping the benefits through profit and more available time.
Owners seeking funds for expansion shows they’re optimistic and realistic, which experts say is a valuable mindset in today’s market.
