LAS VEGAS -- According to a report by ThumbTack.com, Las Vegas is a top city for being small business friendly.
Small businesses are becoming a bright spot in the economy. The report surveyed more than 6,000 small business owners nationwide and, despite the recession, businesses in Las Vegas are confident they can succeed.
After the construction industry came to a screeching halt, Dane Keiser came up with another idea -- he started a lawn maintenance company called Two White Guys and a Dog. In just about a year, their customer base has almost tripled with about 125 customers a month.
Keiser credits that to the company's creative name, but also providing quality services that are affordable. He says small businesses are the backbone of our economy because they put locals to work, which creates a trickle effect that benefits everyone.
"Every dollar someone spends with me, I've got to spend it at Star Nursery, at Lowes, at Home Depot. My money doesn't leave Vegas, it stays right here. I've got everyone local and they support me too," said Keiser.
Lola's Kitchen started up about two years ago and owner Lola Pokorny says business is incredible. The Louisiana themed restaurant holds up to 75 people and its usually packed for lunch and dinner.
She says cheap rent paired with tax incentives creates a climate for small businesses to succeed. Lola's will be featured on the Food Network's Diners, Drive-In's and Dives on Monday night.
