What North Yorkshire's numbers say about your customers

Drawn from the latest ONS and Census figures for North Yorkshire, with what ChatFlow does about each.

A rural economy

16.4% of business units in North Yorkshire are in agriculture, forestry and fishing, above the UK share of 4.5%. Here, owners spend the day outdoors, so messages pile up until the evening without an assistant answering first.

Plenty of competition

There are about 59 business units per 1,000 residents in North Yorkshire, well above the UK figure of 47. Customers have choices, and a slow reply sends them to the next one.
