Today we’re launching our biggest ever state of the nation survey, The Big Small Business Survey. We’re asking small business owners across Scotland a series of questions to capture a comprehensive picture of the concerns and issues them across the country. The aim of this survey is to give small businesses, and by extension the communities they represent, a stronger voice. Your support will help us ensure our work representing your interests to all levels of government continues to be evidence-based and to reflect your needs. If you’re a small business owner or self-employed, please spare us the time to complete the survey before 10 March. It takes no longer than 20 minutes and will ensure your voice is heard.
