Insightful news for small business owners
Welcome the FSP business trends blog. Here you will find thoughtful and stimulating articles about the economy, finance, marketing and payment processing. I mix in real life examples to make the articles a little more relatable and fun to read. I’ve drawn on my thirty years of experience as a commercial lender and consultant to provide you with resources designed to help you save money, save time and grow your business.


Inside many of the articles I create links to many free resources such as the Small Business Administration. In addition, you may find some links to affiliate partners. These are companies that I have experience with and recommend them to you because I believe in their products or services. Some of these partners may pay me a small commission if you chose to use their services.
