Chamber kicks off small-business survey

Pierce County businesses are invited to participate in an online survey to measure their individual success in using today’s marketing tools as compared to nationwide business use of marketing tools. The survey is under the direction of the Chamber which is working with the City of Tacoma and supported by Network Solutions and Rockbridge Associates.

The survey will also focus on the business climate to determine how supportive the local environment is for business success.

Businesses will get their own individual rating for a Small Business Success Index and through their participation will determine the Small Business Success Index for Tacoma and Pierce County. The Chamber and the City of Tacoma will use the survey’s results to improve their small business support services.

The Chamber will share results with regional government, business and opinion leaders.
