While every small business entrepreneur wants to keep a tight rein on spending, the question is: are you frugal or are you just plain cheap? This week’s episode of Help! My Business Sucks begins with some creative “money-saving tips” that I think you’ll find amusing.

Next, I answer a viewer’s question on how to expand into new markets, and then I introduce you to a resource to help you hire interns. Finally, there’s a big marketing lesson from Chocomize.com on the power of customization.

As usual, let me know your opinion about the topics covered in the show to help your small business this week — leave your comments below, it’s really easy to do, and I love hearing your thoughts.
