Impact of the micro business and small business on the economy of UK
Micro Business : It refers to the type of small business that employees less than 10
people in the business (Simonova and et.al, 2017). According to the Office for National Statistics
and Department for Business, A micro business has turnover less than £632000 and assets less
than £316000 (GOV.UK, 2021). Micro business can send only balance sheet with less
information to the Company House. Examples of micro business are Mantons cards.
Small business : It refers to the company having turnover of £10.2 million or fewer and
balance sheet less than £5.1 million along with 50 or fewer employees in the business. Small
business can only send abridge accounts if all company members are agreed to it (GOV.UK,
2021). Example of Small business is Davison Canners.
The impact of the micro business and small business is very great on the UK's economy.
These business have the largest number of population in the United Kingdom. The income
generated by these business is contributed to the Gross Domestic Product of the country. This
leads to the contribution of Micro business and Small business to the economy of the United
Kingdom. These business have a great impact on the economy of the United Kingdom as
majority of employment is created by the small and medium sized business. Total employment
created by SME was 16.3 million that is 61% of the total employment in UK (UK Small
Business Statistics, 2021). Economy of UK is affected at large scale by the small business in the
country that shows the contribution of the SME in the UK development. The reduction in the
small business due to the impact of Covid reduced the growth speed of the economy of the
United Kingdom.

Figure 1 (Source : BEIS, Business Population Estimates, 2020, Table 1)
Research from Business population Estimates shows that there are over 5.7 million
business in the UK out of which 96 % are micro business and less than 4% are small business as
shown in figure 1. This shows that the economy of the UK is majorly depended on the small size
and micro business.
Micro business and SME has contributed to the economy in many ways such as
employment, social impact, growth of the country and increase in the GDP. Major part of GDP is
being hold by micro and small business ventures. Micro companies like Mantons Cards
providing best greeting cards in the country has a great impact on the economy of the country
(Gherhes, Vorley and Brooks, 2020). Company produce card for the customer that lead to the
self-reliance of the economy. Mantons Card uses eco-friendly production in respect to the social
responsibility. Small business like Davison Canners produce food products for the domestic area.
Manufacturing and agricultural procedures are done by the company helps in the increase of the
employment. Employment within the country has good impact on the economy of the United
Kingdom.

Challenges faced by the Small business in UK
Stretched IT resource : A Stretched IT team affects may small business, some businesses
do not have Information technology that lead to the increase of various challenges that a small
business has to face. The adoption of the technology in the business is increasing rapidly as the
customer are more likely to prefer digital transaction. Small business that do not have such
facility or technology have to face the challenge related to the loss of customers in the
organization .
Lack of budget making improvements: budget is generally not prepared by the small
business as the process in the budget making process lead to the increase in the cost and that is te
major reason small business do not prepare the budget for the business it leads to increase in
more cost in the business as preparing the budget for small business do not take much cost and
small business have to face various challenges related to the preparation of the budget.
Importance of small businesses and business start-ups to the growth of the social economy
Social economy refers to the factors that include situations in which people learn, live,
work and play. Small business are easy to start and minimum resources are helpful to start the
business. Small business have potential to start the company from the ground level. Small
business contributes to the local economy growth as the business is at local area and it represents
the local preferences of the people. According to the Business statistic 96% of the business i the
United Kingdom are Small business entrepreneurship (Ward, 2021). Following are the
importance of the small business and start-ups to the growth of the social economy: Creation of Employment: SME creates employment in the local area of establishment. It
provides opportunities to the people seeking for employment. Small business contributes
a lot to the economic growth of the country in terms of employment. Small companies are
capable of providing quality jobs because of less number of employees. There were 6
million SME in the United Kingdom in 2020 which was over 99% of all business
(Business population estimates 2020, 2020) Local Development: Contribution to the local economy leads to the development of the
area. Generating income by employment increase the living slandered of the society. This
leads to the development of the domestic area of the entrepreneurship (Okamuro,

Nishimura and Kitagawa, 2019). SME also contribute to the growth of the economy by
providing services, products and tax to the economy. Such small steps towards the
growth of the economy leads to the big difference in the development. SME also helps
the society to create better environment as social responsibilities are taken by the
companies in order to gain interest of the public, business develops various
environmental regulation. Such approach improves the environment living of the
surroundings. Fast Adaptation: Small business are capable of fast adaption to the new situation with its
flexibility feature. SME are easy to adopt change as they are small and adoption at one
location made a lot faster for the business (Yunus, 2017). Digital gap are smaller in such
business and creating new normal is a smooth process for business as low number of
employees takes less time to understand and adopt the change in the business. This ability
of SME creates huge impact on the growth of the economy socially and technologically.
Development in business is quicker than compared to the larger business
entrepreneurship. Small area of recognition and business, flexibility and low number of
employees plays an important role in making fast adaptation.
 Encouraging Entrepreneurship: Small Business Entrepreneurship has been encouraging
many other entrepreneurs from generations. People are influenced by the business idea,
and they adopt the same to generate their income (Dimitriadis and et.al, 2017). This lead
to increase in the amount of SME in the country and help in the contribution to the
economy of the country. This type of business are easy to start so the impact of the idea is
huge on the society. It is also the reason for SME having 99% of the all business in the
United Kingdom.
The characteristics required for successful entrepreneurs
The characteristics of an entrepreneur are major factors behind the success or failure of
business venture. An entrepreneur should have few of main skills for the attainment of
business plan as well as the successful execution of that plan (Lyons, Lyons and Samson,
2021). These characteristics can be listed as:
 Creativity: Creativity always looks after something new and unique. The desire of being
different and new on its own have a very huge impact on the success of any business.
Without any creativity, invention or innovation can never be imagined. Idea behind the

innovation is a key element of any startup. Entrepreneurs are generally full of new ideas
as well as the new solutions of old problems. However, it is not like every idea will be a
hit but at-least the experience behind that idea will lead towards the gold. As an example
Phillip green is one of the best example of innovative entrepreneur, he started with the
shoe import business but with the creativity as well as hands on training he started to
import shoe as well as many more products such as clothes etc. now he is listed in one of
the most successful importer in UK. This skill is required to become successful
entrepreneur because an entrepreneur is making new and innovative products. They are
generating new and creative ideas and making new products so that need of people can be
satisfied. When a person thinks creative ideas then they are successful because people
want new and innovative products. So, an entrepreneur should have creative skills so that
they can complete task and accomplish goals and objectives. Creativity powers
innovation, establishes new perspective and solutions to problems which is beneficial for
entrepreneur.
 Professionalism: The behavior and professional mannerism takes an entrepreneur on a
very next level in terms to be successful. A good behavior with employees and client
always results in a long term relationship, reliability and the loyalty. A good entrepreneur
always keep the employees positively motivated. However, professionalism over the limit
hampers the good relationship in between the employees as well as the clients because it
leads towards the lack of emotional bond in between them. As an example, Richard
Branson, CEO of the virgin group is always known because of his professionalism as
well as the motivating behavior towards his team. This behavior leads him towards the
better image in front of his employee as well as in the industry.
 Planning and knowledge: It is the most important milestone to run a show. Planning is a
strategy which adds up the resources, structure and a path to process that results in goal
achievement. For the various situations or can be said a crisis can be overcome with a
plan. Planning always leads towards the guild lines to achieve minimum risk. However,
planning without proper statistics can not be that beneficial for a business. Knowledge
behind the planning is also equally important in business success. The knowledge of
market, recent trends, strength as well as the weaknesses of own business can result in a
healthy business organization Such as David and Simon Reuben (Reuben brothers)

started the scrap metal trading business but with the planning and knowledge they have
invested among various raw material businesses and for they are top most wealthiest
entrepreneurs in the UK. A successful entrepreneur is responsible for making plans better
than others so that they can perform better and run business smoothly. For example, if an
entrepreneur is not making plans then he or she is not able to manage work and task
cannot be completed on time. For becoming successful it is essential to make plans and
divide work properly so that goals and objectives can be accomplished. So, successful
entrepreneur should have planning and knowledge skill so that targets can be achieved.
 Risk-taking: A true entrepreneur be always ready to face any situation or the
consequences of their business plan, they know how to learn from defeat by keeping the
right mentality. Without being afraid of the risk, a person can do business successfully.
Although Risk can lead towards the success or failure depends upon environmental
factors but taking risk is main thing that can be done on the first place to achieve a goal.
James Dyson took the risk and left his engineering job to build a better vacuum cleaner
that can be a innovative solution of intense cleaning and now he is one of the most
wealthier engineer in UK. Risk taking is the skill which an entrepreneur should have
because it is important. For example, when a person is implementing new ideas then they
have to take risk that whether people will like the product or not. A successful
entrepreneur has to take risk and make products. High risk more profit can be earned, low
risk then less profit.
 Passion and Self-motivation: An entrepreneur should be highly focused toward the
goals. Without being distracted over the obstacle or failure in business, an entrepreneur
must be determinant to achieve the target. A business have always been a combination
ups and down. Many of times a failure can lead towards demotivate. If the self
motivation and ability to learn from the defeat is not strong enough, it became near to
impossible to motivate the employees and that can hamper a positive organizational
environment and the successful business of the organization as well. Such as James
Dyson had a passion to build a better vacuum cleaner and after so many failures he got
succeed to make dual cyclone vacuum cleaner and because of that he earned the fortune.
Key skills of successful entrepreneurs
Time management, Leadership skills, open -minded and communication skills, resilient.

 One of the most important skill of entrepreneurs is time management as they can easily
manage their time and all the activities important for running business
 They are effective leaders who can successfully run whole business easily
 They are open minded who are open to any kind of opportunity that can help them in
achieving success
 They are highly effective communicators and can easily communicate business vision,
mission and objectives to employees
These skills differentiate the entrepreneurs from the business managers as business manager do
the job within a business and entrepreneurs are the one whose ideas are behind the business.
Managers are good at managing, planned things and motivated environment whereas logic and
plans to do everything are entrepreneur things (Shuaibu and et. al., 2021).
Entrepreneurial personality and mindset
Motivations for successful entrepreneurs
Motivation is a way of pushing oneself or others to do something by themselves for achievement
of desired goals and objectives. as per McClelland theory every person has one of three main
driving motivators:
Need for affiliation- interpersonal and social relationships with others as it can directly help in
achieving success.
Need for power- person have power or control over themselves that can help them in influencing
others to change their decisions
Need for achievement- a person need to achieve desired goals and objectives
Entrepreneur personality and mind set have a huge impact upon future of business as well
as on the employees working within an organization. The personality of an entrepreneur decides
the environment of organization, motivation level of employee or the mindset of employees as
well as clients over the business. An entrepreneur sees future opportunities and a way to exploit
them to achieve sustainability of the business. So the entrepreneur must be the one with cleat
mindset, logical thinker, creative and communicative so that they can deliver motivation with a
positive mindset (Pidduck, Clark and Lumpkin, 2021). It can also be explained with the help of
Carl Jung personality typing theory. As per this theory there are eight types of personalities each
of these personalities have their own attitude and skills and functions. Their attitude and

functions themselves makes them different personalities. Some of them are: extraverted thinking
type, introverted thinking type, extraverted feeling type, introverted feeling type, extraverted
sensation type, introverted sensation type, extraverted intuitive type, and introverted intuitive
type. these attitude of different personalities helps them in becoming positive type of personality
that can influence others and run a business successfully.
On the contrary part, a negative personality can lead towards negative environment within or
outside the organization. There are few of the attributes that can indicate a positive personality of
an entrepreneur such as :
An entrepreneur must be of positive mental attitude along with the creative mindset.
They must have a better communication ability that can peruse the creative idea towards the
growth or motivation in the employees. They must be reciprocated in nature, always consider
the efforts of others in the sense of favor. The successful entrepreneurs must have to look for
others and should be able to adopt the vision of others as well. They must have intrinsic
motivation factor in themselves, they should lead the others towards the success by motivating
them in the right direction not by pushing them to do the things. However, if the entrepreneurs
pushes the others, it can lead towards the lack of motivation in other and their mind set get
negatively affected because of that. The negative mindset of other spread negativity in the
environment and lead towards the unhealthy environment in the business.
 Mark Zuckerberg founder of Facebook is a successful entrepreneur with introversion,
thinking, intuition as well as the judgmental personality type of entrepreneur who was a
school drop out once. Mark Zuckerberg lives a simple lifestyle and does not care more
about his dress up or looks. By communicating with the other team members, considering
their new ideas, encouraging their creativity and offers them to present themselves in
front of other to grooming their own skills are few of the main reflections of Mark
Zuckerberg personality. He is an aggressive but encouraging leader believes a single
person can not grow a company but a good team can does. This motivation style as well
as the positive personality motivates all the team employees and boost their performance
to grow as a team as well.
 Elon Musk co-founder of PayPal and Tesla is a visionary entrepreneur who inspires the
team and tries to keep them away from leaving. Elon musk is one of the top most driven
as well as innovative entrepreneur, extremely focused and passionate about his work

ethic. His passion is so intense to work 75-80 hours a day (Garn, 2021) or sometimes
sleeping under the desk. The Greatest trait of Elon musk is he believes in his team.
According to him, the way you build a good relation with the other people or employees
reflects on the work. The vision of other person should align with your vision to keep the
balance in between the growth the employee as well as the organization. Elon musk never
believed in 'NO' words as for him no means nothing, that quality separates him from the
others. This dedicated towards work personality encourages others as well.
Analysis of how background and experience can foster entrepreneurship
Personal background as well as the experience of the individual can have a very high
effect on a business and that can be in positive sense to foster a business or can be in a negative
sense to hinder the business. Personal background is consists of friends and family of an
individual, their financial background, support in the right direction have an influence on the set
up of the business (Atallah, Bousmah and De Fuentes, 2021). A financial background also have
an important role in the risk taking ability of the individual as if financial background is strong
enough then the individual can take risk for the success of the business without having a second
thought but in contrary the shortage in budget can lead the individual towards the fear of losing.
Personal experience of the person also have influence on the startup or the entrepreneur venture
as with the good experience it became easier to continue the business for longer time as well as
can be more confident to start a business or startup. There are many other kinds of background
factors that can demotivate an entrepreneur that can discourage them from running their own
business successfully. Some of those negative factors are: business failure, lack of funds and past
experiences. By using the examples, it can be understood the role of background and experience
in the terms of entrepreneurship such as:
 Local entrepreneur of UK- David and Simon Reuben also known as Reuben brothers,
Founder of Trans-world metals company are one of the wealthiest entrepreneur in UK.
The Reuben brother are born in a poor family but with the entrepreneurial ambitions they
started their business in scrap metal trading as well as the carpet industry. Their prior job
experience paid off in terms of business success and their knowledge had foster their
business. They started complete trading of raw material such as copper, aluminum etc.
and with the hard work they became self-made billionaires.

 International entrepreneur– Jack Ma (China), founder of Alibaba, is one of the best
example of entrepreneur who changes his failure into success with time. He failed 5 times
in school, got rejected by Harvard 10 times, KFC, police as well as from the 30
companies for the job application. After all the failures he again failed in 2 businesses as
he had the will power, never afraid of trying new thing (Motivational Speaks, 2021). He
never cared about the failures and at the end Alibaba company was a huge success. As he
already has good experience in small business so this experience help Jack Ma to foster
the business and as a result Jack Ma became a billionaire.
 Social entrepreneur- Alex Stephany (London), founder of Beam which is a platform
offering and funding carrier training to the homeless people. Alex Stephany is one of the
top most social entrepreneur in UK. On the elementary stage he had done the charity but
after some times he observed people again demanding for money. So Alex Stephany tried
and formed the organization named Beam to provide them a training support so that these
people can withstand their future with a job can take care of themselves without being
dependent on the charity. Apart from the job training Beam organization works with CV
as well as interview preparation of these homeless people. Because of the will power of
Alex Stephany, company won over all the challenges, foster the business and now this
organization is changing life of homeless peoples at a huge scale right now.
CONCLUSION
From the above study it is discussed as the start up or an entrepreneurship venture can be of
different types as small, medium, large and micro size business. The small business tends to
acquire the larger areas of every industry and have a decent contribution in the economy of a
respective country as well. An entrepreneur always need to have certain skills to achieve the
desired growth in the business. Moreover, experience and personal background of an
entrepreneur also plays vital role in success of the business. The way entrepreneur implements
their skills in the business, the results come as the same way. The mind setup, risk taking attitude
and new ideas can take the business to the boom or can hinder the business. A personality of an
entrepreneur have huge influence on the business of company as well as on the employee within
the organization. With all the study it can be said that entrepreneur skill and traits are the main
factor behind the success or failure of any business whereas an entrepreneurship venture have

very good scope in the terms of development of the market as well as in the growth of country
economy.
