Something to read over the holiday?

by Haines Watts Norwich on 20 December 2011

HW conducted a survey in 2010 titled Happiness & Heartbreak. 

Although some of the figures may now be out of date we feel it gives an interesting insight in to the thoughts of the business owner.

Read about how other business owners are coping with the current economic climate, who they turn to for advice and the highs and lows of running a business. In addition, we welcome your comments on any of the issues highlighted in the report and your own experiences of running a business.

Happiness and Heartbreak focuses on the experience of business owners and uncovers many key findings including:

1 in 4 business owners are ‘currently’ being asked to provide personal guarantees to support their business
Only 14% of business owners felt the VAT reduction had helped their business
68% of business owners have avoided making redundancies in the past year
