Small Business List

75% of the UK can be defined as a Small Business (under six employees).  That's around 2 million sites accross the UK.  

You need to be careful in your definition of "small business" as our Government has two classifications to define small! 

1) 'Small Office Home Office' (SOHO) employs 1-5 people. 

2) 'Small to Medium' (SME) employs up to 250.

Our small business list can be segmented prior to supply so you only pay for what you need.  If you want to select "one man bands" then simply specify "small business list with X number of employees" when asking us for a FREE count.  If you want to focus on a particular industry or exclude parts of the country then please specify that also when sending us a brief.

Advice - Selling to a Small Business List

Small businesses are very protective of their time and although very approachable the decision maker (often the person that answers the phone) may have a queue of people standing in front of them when you call or will be very pressed for time working on deliverables (no one to delegate to).  If you want results from your small business list then be patient, ask for a convenient time to call back rather than launch into a full sales pitch.

You may want to consider the New Start Ups Small Business List which also consists mainly of small businesses but these are venturing out for the first time.  This is a premium file but then again these start-ups are in purchase mode: looking for product to stock their shelves, stationery, furniture, insurance and much more.
