Myths surrounding growing a business: a focus group based study on behalf of the Small Business Service

Allinson, G; Houston, M; Braidford, P; Stone, I

Abstract

This study was undertaken by Durham Business School, on behalf of the Small Business Service (SBS), between February and July 2006. The research team previously explored ideas and perceptions associated with starting a business (Allinson et al., 2005), identifying those which are untrue or exaggerated – ‘myths’ which prevent some people from going into business. The current research builds upon that work, exploring the myths related to business growth.
