'The Small Business Guide has been an ongoing resource of practical and innovative business advice. The guide's success is in its solutions based approach. As busy business owners you want concise and solutions orientated information, and the guide fulfills that role for pinkyaccessories.com.

'The Guide has helped Pinkyaccessories.com in creating fundamental and structured business practices. The inability to manage cashflow often leads many businesses to fail, therefore this article was very important to pinkyaccessories.com, we have eagerly adopted some of the approaches suggested. Recently we negotiated and secured a deal with a hosting service to pay the fees in quarterly instalments over an annual period as opposed to up-front payment. Consequently this has eased the company's current cashflow commitments and increases our flexibility and planning for the future.'
