Welcome and thanks

A quick welcome to subscribers new and old. This is the only place I know of focused on helping you succeed in business in a small town. And howdy to the many Australian readers who just arrived referred by Peter Kenyon.

I also write a weekly newsletter, called A Positive View of Rural. If you care about your small town’s future, you’ll like this. It’s a personal conversation with me that gives you a positive view of rural business and small towns. Recent newsletters have talked about:

• Don’t hate your self-employed for not being big enough
• 3 ways to build cooperation in your town
• 3 things your chamber of commerce can stop doing

You can sign up right here to get both the newsletter and the rural small business articles:

Thanks, and welcome! Feel free to take the Guided Tour and look around.
