Between 1993 and 2011, small businesses helped create 64 percent
of net new jobs* in the United
States, according to the Bureau of Labor
Statistics. Even during the economic downturn, small
businesses pushed economic growth, accounting for 67 percent of net
new jobs*. Clearly, small businesses are the backbone of the
U.S. economy, helping to strengthen our communities and create new
opportunities for a talented workforce.
Rick Pennepacker, owner of
Penny's Flowers, a small business in Glenside, Pa., is looking forward to the
positive impact this day will have on his store and community.
"Penny's Flowers is participating in Small Business Saturday. The
goal is to get everyone together. You want to shop at one another's
stores and support your neighbors across the street."
"Small business owners can easily and conveniently plan for
their future. By offering retirement savings benefits, small
businesses can help attract and retain their greatest asset—their
employees," said Moneesh Arora,
senior vice president and general manager of ADP's Retirement
Services division. "In turn, when their employees are actively
contributing to retirement savings plans, they are in a better
position to contribute to their own financial growth while also
contributing to the growth of their local communities."
"We want our employees to be happy to come to work. If you have
a happy employee, you have a great employee. We want to make sure
they are growing like the business is growing," Pennepacker
added.
