Abstract: Survey data generated by four hundred small, United States manufacturers are analyzed seeking to compare exporters with non-exporters by number of employees, scope of international activities and, attitudes about the future role of exporting among small businesses. The paper concludes with three hypotheses regarding differences between small, U.S. exporters and small, U.S. non-exporters.
