The answer is: E) can get started more easily and maneuver faster

Explanation:

One of the most important advantages of small businesses over large corporations is that they don´t have bureaucracies that slow them down.

Specially if a business is a sole proprietorship (I believe Tom is the sole owner) where the owner has complete control and full decision making powers.  Also a small business can be either set up or closed down very easily, it is very flexible and simple compared to a large corporation.
