A total of 1,700 telephone interviews were conducted with a range of businesses across Scotland between 9 and 27 June 2008. Prior to the survey, a literature review and a series of scoping interviews were undertaken to explore in detail the specific issues faced by businesses in Scotland and to inform the design of the survey questionnaire. More specifically, ten 30 minute interviews were conducted; six among representatives of each of the key growth sectors identified by the Scottish Government (energy, financial and business services, food and drink, life sciences, tourism and creative industries) and four among general business representative organisations.
