The business credibility test has a score that ranges from 0 to 100, with 100 being all items above reporting positive. The average small business score in the U.S. is between 40 and 50, and is the reason that so many small businesses get turned down for loans, contract bids, equipment leases, etc.
Most business owners do no pay attention to the details of operating their business the right way and making it credible is the eyes of everyone that looks at it.
