Small Business Saturday is officially November 30th, although we celebrate small businesses every day. Please support locally owned small businesses at every opportunity. When you choose to shop locally, you’re helping your neighbors thrive.
If you are a small business owner, you can leverage the holiday to market your business. The US Chamber of Commerce offers a Small Business Saturday toolkit with social media messaging and graphics, best practices, signage and more. American Express also helps small business owners plan for their future and provides a variety of educational and marketing resources designed to help fuel your growth journey.
