Consider these regrettable quotes as you plan for the new year in your Small Business:

“Everything that can be invented has been invented.”
Charles H. Duell, Office of Patents, 1899

“There will never be a bigger plane built.”
A Boeing Engineer, after the first flight of the 247, a twin engine plane that carried ten people.

“We don’t like their sound. Groups of guitars are on the way out.”

The moral?  For the New Year, SMB’s should focus on their core strengths, what has been proven in the market but not afraid to think bigger, outside the box.
