Small Business Saturday, November 28

Small Business Saturday-Shop Small in a Big Way!
The day encourages all to shop at small businesses on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Communities are tapping into this movement by hosting special events and promotions to help drive small business sales. This event raises awareness for the impact of buying local. Many innovative and creative ideas have emerged from this event, which are helping Main Street businesses across America. Small Business Saturday has become a powerful movement. In an effort to support local shops that make our communities strong, American Express launched Small Business Saturday® on the Saturday after Thanksgiving to encourage people to Shop Small and bring more holiday shopping to small businesses. The first campaign was launched in 2010. Support your locally owned businesses! They are the backbone of our communities & economy! |
