We were doing so well. Really. The small business community had finally rebounded from the collapse in 2008, and businesses were staying alive. There was a significant drop in filings from the high back in 2009, but in the last 12 months, they are climbing again.  Mike and Blaine talk about how to keep your small business alive.
