Find a market worth pursuing

Use the estimate to decide whether this audience merits a focused effort.

Reach them with a relevant message

Plan outreach around real questions self-employed buyers face.

Turn interest into clients

A market estimate is a starting point for a strategy, not a list of active buyers.

Shading covers only the search circle. Each color represents the self-employment share of an entire county, not a street-level estimate.
From market insight to new client opportunities

Put the Self-Employed Buyer Conversion System to work.

SEBCS helps you choose an audience, reach business owners with relevant outreach, and move interested buyers forward, with the 24/7 Strategy Desk for self-employed income questions.

Data & methodology. Self-employed residents are ACS 2024 five-year survey estimates (incorporated and unincorporated workers) for entire counties touching the selected circle. The headline shows the full county containing the search location, not a count of people within the circle. Other counties touching the circle are listed separately and are not added to that headline. Nonemployer businesses are distinct establishments with no paid employees from Census 2023 Nonemployer Statistics; they are shown for the selected county and should not be added to the resident count. County borders come from Census TIGERweb. Industry sectors describe nonemployer establishments, not the occupations of the residents above. Search locations use 2024 Census Gazetteer place and ZIP area centroids; map tiles © OpenStreetMap contributors. ACS table · Nonemployer data · Boundaries.
