May 5, 2005: Small Business Survey Says Core Business Issues Are Primary
WASHINGTON - Hewlett-Packard (HP) has released a survey that shows the primary challenges for U.S. small businesses are core business issues: operations, customer relations, and employee relations. But even as they focus on the basics, small business owners have an eye on the future with plans to significantly increase technology spending and adoption of new technologies.
The survey, conducted by Harris Interactive® and released in conjunction with National Small Business Week, polled nearly 400 small businesses nationwide in March.
