Supporting small businesses has become my passion. I love shining a spotlight on the quality of goods and services we have right here in our community. Small business owners have dedication, passion, and determination to bring quality goods and services to their community. The Small Business Saturday® campaign gives consumers like you and me the opportunity to shop small – supporting these businesses in one of the most important ways we can – through our purchases.
What Is Shop Small?
Shop Small is an initiative started in 2010 by American Express to focus on the small business owners within communities across the nation. Every year in November, their goal is to get the people of the communities shopping and supporting their local small businesses.
“Small Business Saturday, Nov 30, is almost here! It’s the annual holiday shopping tradition that gets communities everywhere out in support of their favorite small businesses. Because when they thrive, we all thrive. Find out how you can get in on the biggest day of the year in the U.S. for the Shop Small® Movement.”
Small businesses survive from the support of the communities around them. Unlike large chain stores and franchises, the owners of these businesses are most times from the community itself. For them, the customers they serve are more than their next purchase: Each customer is a neighbor, friend or fellow small business owner. Supporting them is supporting our community.
Why Shop Fayetteville, NC?
Downtown Fayetteville has become one of my favorite places to be in the city. I can walk down the street and see the smiling faces of people I know. Walking into each store is like stopping to catch up with a friend. Finding the perfect gift for my special someone is not only fun but rewarding because I know my purchase helps that business grow.
When you shop small you get the chance to find unique, quality items that you just don’t see in department stores. Pieces that were made right where we live by people we know. I think one of the most fascinating things to me about shopping small is knowing that my money is going back into the community I live in.
2019 Shop Small Neighborhood Champions
Shop Small offers the opportunity for neighborhood businesses to register each year as a Neighborhood Champion. The 2019 Fayetteville, NC Champions are:
Recently the Women’s Business Center of Fayetteville hosted a Shop Small Round Table and invited small business owners gathered to share their thoughts about Shop Small Saturday and how to market their business best to attract local shoppers. As part of the day, they offered the owners the opportunity to share their Shop Small deals on camera!
