Resources for Small Business Managers

Anyone who has started and successfully runs a business will tell you that coming up with a workable idea for making money and concentrating on growing that idea successfully is the easy part. The hard part is everything else that comes along with managing a successful business: HR, taxes, unemployment compensation, bonuses, options, state and federal regulations, business law and more. But there are lots of sources of business management information that can help you in areas where your management knowledge might be lacking. Google "small business management resource" and you'll find free business management information resources like the federal SBA, as well as small business management online magazines -- Inc. online is a good one -- and resource sites like entrepreneur.com, which cover the subjects that come up everyday when trying to manage a small business.
