This study used statistical package for social science (SPPS) and administered questionnaires in collecting data and analysed data. This study analysed data through descriptive analysis, correlation, and regression accordingly. The findings reveal that each independent variable such as entrepreneurs’ self-efficacy (ESE), improvisation behavior, and access to finance have positive significant influence on SMEs' business success.
