88 views Mar 10, 2010 There are 30 million small businesses in the US, 22 million of which have NO employees, none, and yet small business creates 79% of all new jobs. Add the economic crisis on top of the statistics for marriage and small business failure and you get a risk-group that is roughly 18% of your local population. That's HUGE! Learn more about entrepreneurship and how to survive as a couple in small business and micro-enterprise at www.enterprisingcouples.com

Since there is no automatic transcript available for this video, I have transcribed the key points for you:

Introduction (0:02 - 0:41): The video opens with a quote from Leo Tolstoy about human inability to see obvious truths. It then shifts to a list of diseases (Chicken Pox, Diphtheria, etc.) that once killed millions (0:42 - 0:54). The Analogy (0:54 - 1:42): It connects the difficulty of recognizing these "simple truths" to understanding business risks, using a series of symbols and numbers to illustrate a point about learning from failure. Statistical Context (1:49 - 2:05): It presents failure rates for marriages (41% for first, 67% for second, 74% for third) and contrasts this with small business, suggesting that in business, failure can be a catalyst for learning. Small Business Data (2:06 - 2:44): The video notes that there are 30 million small businesses in the U.S., with 22 million having no employees. It highlights that over 55% of these businesses fail within five years, creating a significant impact on local communities, especially in a non-normal economy. Call to Action (3:42 - 4:26): It encourages entrepreneurs not to work in isolation and offers workshops and resources at enterprisingcouples.com to help improve survival rates.
