Despite challenges, small companies remain a driving force in an economy posting surprisingly high employment and a solid gross domestic product. According to a survey by the National Association for the Self Employed (NASE), 49 percent of the nation’s self-employed say they’re optimistic or very optimistic about their revenue, while 41 percent said they are cautiously upbeat. Just 10 percent said they are not optimistic. It’s almost been a year since September 11 made Americans ask how we would ever get back to business as usual. Resisting the dual forces of terror and recession proved to be a test entrepreneurs were able to overcome.
