"It is useful to hear the questions and comments from others for it makes me plan ahead and realize that others are wondering about the same questions as me. It makes me feel like the state and the local community care about me as an entrepreneur and the success of my firm. It makes being an entrepreneur a little more social when I know that there are others in the same boat."
