In 2006 everyone will become a producer. Each of our local public television stations just may become the places where we all learn how to do it.

Each episode of SmallBusinessSchool (SBS) becomes part of learning library of best practices. Every business owner (and/or employee) who becomes a member of their station can be listed and linked from the SBS Index of Learning Companies. All very special small businesses, the goal is to have at least 400,000 profiles of the very best small businesses out of the 25 million in the USA.

As the show increasingly becomes global, there may be even more from all the other countries throughout the world.

This web site and production, increasingly owned and operated by these small businesses, sponsors, and friends, is self-selecting among all those people who are committed to lifelong learning and who operate their business with integrity and ethics. They are loved by their community and respected within their industry.

We hope you have read one of our open letters about the importance of public television. Taken together, we can all be advocates for all small businesses.

All the information with the web site and the weekly television show are organized within one of eight steps: four to start and run a business and four to run and grow a business. In each step owner/founders discuss how they got from one step to the next.

There is a magical part of of each episode and of this web site. You see people like yourself, who have an idea for a business – that's an inspired moment. Yet, they act on it, and surprise themselves and everyone when it becomes successful. Here you find the 1000 questions that will be thrown at you. You see how other overcame the obstacles and self-doubt.

Today, every question and answer is being pulled into a one-to-five minute capsules so you can ask a question and get an array of answers. These are called Interactive Questions (IQ) within Question-Answer Arrays (QUAYS).

If you answer these Interactive Questions online, you'll be building pages – a profile – on this site. Once enough questions are answered, these answers can be reviewed first as a profile/overview, then as a study guide, and finally as a transcript. You can then request that they become public on this site.

Once they do, you are then part of those who will be considered for a local episode of the show.
