The internet and e-commerce are growing at an incredible pace.

Advances in telecommunications, encryption, and verification have all played a part in the fueling of this growth. What opportunities do these advances in technology present for the small business? Should a small business take advantage of this technology?

YES! Almost any business can benefit from a presence on the Web, even if you never take a credit card on line. Whether you are a local pizzeria e-mailing lunch menus to a list of customers or a start-up business leveraging your staff through round the clock order fulfillment, your business can benefit from being on the web.
