What is the National Small Business Poll?
The National Small Business Poll is a series of national surveys of small employers dating to 2001. Each survey contains information gathered from approximately 750 small employer respondents. The Gallup Organization draws the sample from the Dun & Bradstreet files for each survey and conducts it by telephone for the NFIB Research Foundation. The Gallup Organization is NOT responsible for production or interpretation of the data presented in the Polls or in 411SmallBusinessFacts.com.
