🚀 What You Need to Know About Business in 2025 – Insights from the Big Small Business Survey
The world of small business is shifting fast, and if you want to stay ahead, you need the latest insights. In this episode, I dive into the results of the Big Small Business Survey, co-authored by myself, Andrew Griffiths, Tracy Sheen, and Katrina McCarter.
🔎 What’s keeping business owners up at night?
💰 Rising costs – and why only 15% have a pricing strategy in place
🤖 AI adoption – 63% say it’s a game-changer, but 20% are still hesitant
📢 Marketing overwhelm – it’s decreasing (finally!), but consistency is still a challenge
💡 How small businesses are fighting back with innovation, community, and new income streams
📊 The burden of high taxes and red tape – the conversation that needs to be louder!
The numbers don’t lie – small businesses make up 98% of all businesses in Australia and contribute $506 billion to the economy. Yet, many feel unsupported. With an election looming, now is the time to take action, speak up, and push for real change.
If you want to future-proof your business, embrace AI, and fine-tune your pricing and marketing strategies, this is an episode you can’t afford to miss.
