THE major parties still have a lot of work to do to gather votes from small business owners ahead of the federal election.
Research by business software provider MYOB shows one quarter of small to medium business owners are undecided and 26 per cent don't believe either major party is a better economic manager than the other.
"This highlights a great opportunity for both parties to get vocal about their game-changing initiatives for this sector," MYOB chief Tim Reed said in a statement on Thursday.
The survey of 1022 small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) did reflect a lift in the number of owners satisfied with Labor government initiatives for small business.
Satisfaction rose to 16 per cent, from 14 per cent in March, and dissatisfaction fell from 54 per cent to 50 per cent.
The owners surveyed were asked to tick off policies that might change their vote at the election.
Some 67 per cent backed policies to simplify the GST and business activity statement (BAS) processes, followed by 62 per cent who want the carbon tax abolished.
Labor is already planning to deal with the GST and BAS issues and the coalition still plans to scrap the carbon tax.
Some 41 per cent support coalition plans to abolish Labor's mining tax.
But 45 per cent also want the tax-loss carry back scheme implemented for small business to continue.
The opposition plans to scrap it.
