Small businesses have suffered enough from the hype and lack of useful information. They should also recommend products and services that can help these companies get started quickly and work through a Y2K project efficiently. It is not too late. Many ideas can still be implemented. The trick is getting them done quickly.
Success depends on the speed of large organizations.
In order to get help to small businesses these organizations must treat Y2K awareness as a mission critical priority. Yes, we're running out of time, but small businesses can still do a great deal to prevent serious problems at the turning of the millennium. We should all take some action to help prevent problems. Belinda Enterprises is in the process of developing the Y2K Bug Yellow Pages. Included are listings for solution providers, consultants, computer software and hardware companies, law firms, loans and other vendors all focused on Y2K solutions for the small business.
