On April 14, 2021, Phase 5 agency partner Cargo presented topline findings from our joint study State of SMB (Small & Medium Business) in 2021. If you are a big brand looking to succeed in the small business market, this study will help inform your marketing, innovation, experience, and digital strategies. The April report is now available to download.
Based on our February 2021 survey of over 2,000 SMBs in the U.S. and Canada, this research explores drivers of SMB purchase and loyalty behavior in general, as well as in specific industry sectors including financial services, tech & telco, logistics, and software. It also investigates what SMBs currently fear, forecast, want, and need from the large enterprise brands that serve them.
Some key takeaways from the topline report include:
Cargo will be speaking and sharing findings at a number of upcoming events this spring and summer, including a CMA webinar in mid-May. Keep checking back, and follow Phase 5 on Twitter or LinkedIn for the latest information as it becomes available.
