Small Business Presidential Poll Now Available on DollarDays
Thursday, September 18th, 2008
DollarDays International has a new poll up on their site to test the political climate of it’s visitors. The goal is to see which candidate small business owners think will be the "best Commander In Chief of Small Business." Simply go to www.dollardays.com and look for the poll on the right hand side of the page. Results are updated every 15 minutes.
The idea for this poll occurred after the SBA queried "How Important is Small Business to the U.S. Economy?" Here’s what they concluded:
• Represents 99.7 percent of all employer firms.
• Employs about half of all private sector employees.
• Pays more than 45 percent of total U.S. private payroll.
• Have generated 60 to 80 percent of net new jobs annually
over the last decade.
• Creates more than half of nonfarm private gross domestic
product (GDP).

contracts in FY 2006.
• Hires 40% of high tech workers (such as scientists,
engineers and computer workers).

• Made up 97% of all identified exporters and produced

DollarDays Revamps Its Website!
Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008
Our friends at DollarDays International , a Web-based virtual warehouse, where small business owners and charities can find great deals on small business-sized orders for more than 25,000 consumer products, have redesigned their website to be more customer friendly. The new and improved features include allowing customers to find exactly what they’re looking for with greater ease as well as the ability to enlarge pictures to see exactly what the products look like. Early tests of the new site indicate that the average order has increased over 8%. At the same time new customer registrations have already almost doubled from 327 a day at the end of 2007 to 631 a day currently- a figure that is expected to continue to climb even faster with the new site.
