More-For-Small-Business Helps You Do More For Your Business, With Less
Less time wasted. More resources, more advice, more services. More-for-small-business provides you with information and access to specific, solutions-based resources to help in running your business better and more successfully.
Are you feeling overworked?
Do you work more hours in a day in your small business than you can count on both hands? When your friends who work regular 8 to 5 jobs talk about work-life balance, do you wonder ... what's that? And mean it?
Start doing things the differently!
Start working more efficiently; get more work done, in less time!
If you work long days and nights in your small business,
your business is controlling you. Get the control back!
Small business startup failures are high in year one. And unfortunately, more small businesses will shut down before their 5th year anniversary. Other small businesses fail because they can't handle fast growth or because they can't grow. Don't let your business become one of these failures!
When you put in all those hours, you'd think that business must be good. But often it's a sign of things going wrong (you're just too busy to see it). And if business is really good, then getting a handle on the amount of time you spend IN the business will let you run the business better. Really.

Clients who have found these resources useful are those small business owners or managers who don't have the hours in a day to do everything that needs to get done.
They are also the more-for-small-business owners who find that no matter how much they do, there is always more to do.
-------------------------------------
You likely got into your business because you had a passion, and a talent, for it. You are a specialist in your field. But you're finding less and less time to do what you love because you're spending more and more time doing all the other things that have to get done.
From paperwork, to creating business plans, to selling, to hiring (and firing), to operating equipment and/or your business ... the details or reality of running a small business can slow (or drag) you down. And if you're trying to learn how to start a business, this is also the right place to be. Here you can learn how to run your small business, before it runs you.
More-for-small-business.com can be a significant resource for you.
My name is Kris Bovay and I have worked in business for more than 25 years. I have a wide range of knowledge, skills and experience in small, medium and big business.
I have managed staff of varying sizes (from two up to 80). I have written business plans, marketing plans, strategic plans, communications plans, disaster plans, environment plans, standard operating procedures, job descriptions, websites,(phew!) and more.
Together with some great people that I've worked with over the years, we've grown businesses and helped make them more successful.
From a business functions perspective, I am highly capable in many areas:
strategy,
management,
operations, manufacturing,
customer service,
marketing,
sales,
human resources and
planning. I’m not that fond of accounting and administration - although I like money and calculating profit - as a small business owner myself I know enough to do what I have to do (and get help when needed).
And I work with great associates in a number of other areas (for example, lean manufacturing, continuous quality improvement, graphic design, coaching, and communicating).
Okay, enough about me. This site is for you: small business owners and managers.
This site will provide you with great resources and access to information. It provides more-for-small-business owners.
I've been where you're at and done what you're doing too ... worked 18 hours days, six or seven days a week. Always thinking, 'things are going to get better' or 'I'll hire someone next month to help out'. The reality is you burn down and out with that kind of thinking. And your business won't get better, or stronger, or more successful.
This more-for-small-business website is dedicated to giving you back some time, reducing your stress and providing you with easy to access, and easy to use, resources and services for running a small business.
Make this site your online business consultant.
It's been developed to provide more-for-small-business owners!
Take the time to explore this site - you'll find solutions to some of your most significant challenges.
