A quick pulse check on UK business marketing
A short survey for UK businesses and takes around 2-3 minutes. Tell us what’s working in your marketing right now and what you want to improve in 2026.
Your answers help build a clearer picture of how UK SMEs are feeling going into the new year, from budgets and platforms to what’s actually bringing in enquiries and sales.
Responses are completely anonymous, and we’ll share the key findings once we’ve harvested the results.
Give us 2 minutes in December, we’ll share the key findings in January.
Christmas can be a strange time. For some businesses it’s one of the busiest stretches of the year.
For others it’s a rare quiet patch which can create a bit of breathing space.
A chance to look at what’s working. What isn’t.
And what you want to do differently in 2026.
That’s why we’ve put together a short survey for UK businesses.
It takes about 2 minutes. It’s anonymous.
And we’ll share the key findings once the results are in.
Why we’re asking – and how that benefits you
Nettl is a network of hundreds of studios worldwide, although we’re predominantly based in the UK.
We serve hundreds of thousands of customers, which puts us in a unique position.
We get to see what UK businesses are dealing with day to day. Across loads of sectors. In towns and cities up and down the country.
So we’re asking an important question.
How are UK businesses feeling right now, and what’s actually working when it comes to marketing?
