Being a small business owner is sometimes lonely proposition. You're the person in charge of everything. From open to close, from income to expenses. Everyone looks to you for answers. Where do you turn for answers or advice?

There are many times you're going to find yourself in need of advice for a specific situation. The following are people you can turn to for help and counsel when needed:

Everyone who works a corporate job has fanciful thoughts of walking away and starting their own small business. If you look at recent economic trends, many people aren't choosing to do this, but are forced. Before you make that leap you need to consider a number of factors to determine whether you should do it or not.

There is a great article from Chicago's Daily Herald that talks about New Years Resolutions for small business owners. It's a great list and one that we should all look at. I'm going to run through a few of them that I consider to be the most important.

Large financial purchases: You need to ensure your accountant is with you throughout the process. In small businesses your accountant is a team member. Before you commit a large amount of money to something make sure the accountant is in the loop.
