EnviroPerks not only helps communities incentivize recycling but we also support small businesses within your area!
By choosing small businesses over corporations you are securing jobs for those in the area and supporting that unique environment that makes your neighborhood home, which in return creates a win-win cycle that brings new life, home-town culture, community pride, and increased revenue to the city.
The beauty of a small business can be seen in the economic impact and the unique products they offer, but most importantly in what they give to us as a community. Small businesses are known to make larger impacts in their community. Don’t forget the ma and pop shop that supported your kid’s first T-ball team! Not only did them help the team buy uniforms but they probably donated their time and cheered right alongside the parents.
So this year as you’re contemplating where to binge shop for the holidays, we ask that you join us and @AmericanExpress in participating in the movement everyone is talking about. The idea is to shop only at small local businesses the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Find that special, one of a kind gift! And while you’re shopping at your great local businesses, get vocal, take photos, and share on social media with the tag #SmallBusinessSaturday to help spread the word!
Still unsure if this is the way to go?
Studies indicate that 90% of consumers claimed that the Small Business Saturday campaign has had a successful and positive impact on their community.
