Well according to all the news agencies. Positive headlines are flowing in all directions, crack open the champagne, consign the phrase "credit crunch" and doom and gloom headlines to history (or at least until then next recession), and bask in economic glory
So some good news from the CBI (Confederation of British Industry) and BCC (British Chambers of Commerce) telling us the economy is growing at the fastest rate for over 10 years and we are expecting a growth of 3.1% this year.
So what about small businesses and owners?
Does this news reflect the reality of small business owners, is it good news all round, or situation normal and you haven't seen any difference either good or bad?
I suspect we may start to see a slow down in new businesses starting up if the economy is stabilising as unemployment and redundancies inn theory should fall. As this should mean fewer people becoming self-employed as a necessity as opposed to wanting to, but that's just my theory.
Guess time will tell over the next 12 months or so.
Anyone got any thoughts?
