Business Chamber Queensland’s Pulse Survey of business conditions for the March 2025 quarter is now open. This survey aims to understand how Queensland businesses performed in the last three months, what’s impacting your business now and what will influence your decision-making over the next three months.
This quarter the Hot Topic is about business sustainability, which you can read more about in the last section of the survey.
It is Queensland’s most established, comprehensive and trusted source of business sentiment.
We use the quarterly Pulse report to shape local, state and federal policies on behalf of the businesses we represent. Measuring employment levels, turnover, business profitability and business confidence, the report is a valuable tool for business and industry leaders and policy and investment decision makers.
The Pulse report is an opportunity for your business voice to be heard. By participating in Pulse, you’re helping us advocate to government on behalf of businesses across the state.
