We had something of an epiphany recently while talking to a member of MyVenturepad.  "Most small business people are not all that interested in the idea of small business," she told us. "What they are really interested in is growth.  How do I grow my business?  How do I get new customers?  How do I finance expansion?  How do I find and keep good people who will help my business grow?"

"Voila," we thought, and we're not even French.  We should focus our content on the challenges of growth.  Small is nice, but growing is better.

Hence, the new logo and the new tagline:  "Your Network for Growth." 

We'll be adding some new bloggers to reflect the new emphasis, but mostly we are counting on you to help us and your peers address the challenges of growth.  All you have to do is register, and then click on "Create a Post."  Tell us your growth story or ask for advice.  If you have a blog, you can add it to the regular flow of content here  MyVenturepad.  Read the section called  Add  Your Blog for instructions.

Post. Comment.  Network.  Join the conversation. 

And, as they say in France, bon surf.
