One in Three

One Vision – One Business – One Job

Did you know that nearly 90 percent of all U.S. businesses are microbusinesses? That’s small businesses with five or fewer employees—the ones that you see on Main Street in your local communities every day like repair shops, tailors, flower shop.

These businesses are at the heart of America’s economic recovery and generate approximately $4.87 trillion annually for the U.S. economy, earning their owners a median net worth of almost 2.5 times higher than non-business owners.

Microbusiness is a win-win for everyone. We can invest in job creation through microbusiness.

In fact, if just one in three microenterprises hired a single employee, the U.S. would be at full employment—and that’s the vision of the One in Three campaign.
