William O'Neal’s Summary

I've been around small business my entire career, really having never worked for a company larger than 65 people, most in the 8-15 person range. I've developed a keen sense of what small businesses need and what many will face with their next growth step. I started my own small business 4 years ago and I now have 8 employees. For all things electronic, technology, or computer related, I probably have an opinion I'm happy to share, but only if asked!
