Small Business Association of Michigan Vice President Communications Michael Rogers and his co-host Chris Holman discuss news and events of interest to small business owners on This Week in Small Business. Michael and Chris discuss the results of the fall 2014 Michigan Future Business Index survey of small business owners. Over a third (38 percent) of small business owners said they plan to boost wages in the next six months. Wage hike intentions are continuing a long upward trajectory since bottoming out at only 13 percent in the spring of 2009.
