Being in business is not easy, if you are a Small Business the going is tougher, but surely its no uphill task.

"A business succeeds not because it is long established or because it is big, but because there are men and women in it who live it, sleep it, dream and build great future plans for it."   - Anonymous

How true!

In one of our earlier posts - The Importance Of Being A Reader, we tried to spread a culture of reading for entrepreneurs. As such it seems fitting that we follow it up with another series of must-reads for our young newbie entrepreneurs.

In today's day and age when the social media phenomena is bursting off its seams, it is indeed tough for willing and enterprising minds to pick reliable and sound-minded news about the industry or for that matter business tips. As such running a small business comes with a gamut of responsibilities, added to this nobody really can spare a moment's time to really give the newbies a 'pearl of wisdom'. The real world works differently!

Here is our collection of resourceful and hilarious blogs from industry veterans, investors and other bloggers who share their experiences with nothing in return.

Their primary focus is to act like a headquarter of all SMB info from across the web to facilitate a thorough reading at one time. So basically it cuts down on the hard task of actually browsing through different webpages.
