You ran a series of articles on small businesses, hiring and expansions. I thought I would add to it.
I run a small firm, with about 45 employees and 40 contractors. We have been growing pretty well, close to 80% topline numbers for the past 3 years. Our average salary is over $100,000. We have some innovative software we sell to the industry. We also offer operational improvement strategies and IT consulting.
We provide great healthcare insurance coverage to our employees. It is necessary in order to attract talent and I am in the talent business.
