If the impending Black Friday madness has you ducking for cover, take heart, wary shoppers: Small Business Saturday has your back. Inaugurated last year, Small Business Saturday celebrates the Shop Small movement to drive business to local merchants across the country.
The Simpsons is a show that has been a part of television for over 20 years. It has even claimed the title of being the longest running scripted show in the history of television. It has gone from “Eat my shorts” to covering every type of controversial issue engrained within American culture. And while people around the country (and beyond) enjoy watching it, there are actually things that entrepreneurs can learn from the successful long-running series.
Independent We Stand today announced its participation in the second annual Small Business Saturday on November 26, 2011. Small Business Saturday is a day for dedicating a portion of holiday shopping to local, independently-owned small businesses.
Following the success of last year’s Small Business Saturday, a number of online giants are teaming up to help local owners make this year’s event even more prosperous. Facebook, Google and Twitter, among others, are joining with American Express, which founded Small Business Saturday, to offer a free toolkit designed to help small business owners get their cash registers ringing this holiday season.
Support your locally owned and operated businesses year round.
