For small businesses, the next decade will see the reality of technology catch up with the hype of the last decade. The nature of this new reality is the subject of the second report in the Intuit Future of Small Business Series. The study focuses on three emerging technology trends:

• Creation of a digital infrastructure that will allow greater flexibility around when, where and how work is done: technology will enable small businesses to gain customer insight, improve the delivery of product and improve productivity.
• As the cost of web services become less expensive and easier to use, the web will become increasingly more important as a platform for the creation, communication and sharing of information.
• The ubiquitous nature of the web will require small businesses to shift their marketing approach; a company’s web presence will become increasingly central to their marketing success.
