The Small Business Census

About this census. This is a fan census run by Small Business Advice Week. It is not a scientific survey. Anyone can take part, so the results show the people who chose to answer, not all small businesses. A country only appears in the league once at least 30 people from there have taken part. Your type and score are for fun and reflection, not financial advice.

You must be 18 or over to take part. We store your answers with your country, age band and gender, and nothing else about you. We do not ask for your name or the name of your business. To spot cheating we keep a scrambled version of your internet address for 30 days. If you choose to leave your email, it is kept in a separate list, together with your founder type but never joined to your answers. Offers from our partners are sent only if you tick that box, and you can opt out at any time. See our privacy page.
