Many small business owners face an uncertain future preparing for President-Elect Trump’s second term. Bracing for potential changes to the tax code, healthcare coverage and immigration policy, as well as new tariffs, means entrepreneurs are struggling to plan for 2025 and beyond. "Small business owners are already hunkering down to weather the painful impact of a potential trade war. They're stocking up on inventory. They're even thinking of moving operations offshore to manufacture for the export market, if they're able to do that," said Small Business Majority Founder & CEO John Arensmeyer. Learn more from Jackie DeFusco and Hearst Television about how small business owners, including DC-based chef and SBM network member Ris Lacoste, are preparing for the next administration. https://lnkd.in/eGg5qD9G

While many American consumers brace for the impact that tariffs could have on the U.S. economy once President-Elect Trump takes office, small business owners are left facing the unknown. During Trump’s first term, tariffs forced owners like SBM National Small Business Council Member Mike Brey to pass rising costs to consumers. This time, tariffs could once again mean higher prices, smaller profits or inventory changes for small businesses. “What do consumers and small businesses hate more than anything? That is uncertainty… and in this case, it's just wave after wave of uncertainty." Learn more about how small businesses are preparing for President Trump’s potential tariffs from Emily Stewart of Business Insider. https://lnkd.in/exZFHNAH
