I wouldn't consider being in business without being a member

Under a headline that read “Helping hand from defender of small firms”, the Sunday Times recently gave its readers an insight into the FSB.

The article took a look at the aims and lobbying achievements of the 185,000-member organisation before detailing some of the benefits of signing up to the FSB. A short interview with a member from Bradford accompanied the piece. The owner of a car accessory business described the FSB's tax protection scheme as a wonderful service that saved him thousands of pounds. He said: “I wouldn't consider being in business now without being a member of the FSB.”
