Small business Saturday is November 28, 2015 and WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT! We need you to support small Muncie businesses!
So what support am I talking about?
Of course I’d love your financial support and for you to book your pet care visits with us but it’s more than that.
How You Can Help Support Small Muncie Businesses (or any business for that matter)
#1… You can show your support for us by CONNECTING with us and SHARING our posts on facebook, twitter, Google+. You can even pin our items on pinterest and shop in our Etsy Store.
#2… You can REFER your friends and family to us.
#3… You can WRITE A REVIEW for us. Business owners love to hear from their customers, and that includes me. Getting recent reviews for our pet sitting and dog walking services so they can be placed on our website and other social media platforms is important.
Well there you go. Three simple things you can do to support small Muncie businesses if you don’t want to actually spend money at their establishments Saturday, November 28. Simply sharing their announcements and postings on social media, referring people in your network and sitting down to put pen to paper (or fingers on a keyboard) all are great ways to support us.
For my small business in particular, sharing and referrals are key things I’m hoping to obtain. Yes, the money is nice also but actually having my circle of friends in Muncie, Anderson and Indianapolis talking about my business and referring people to it goes further in my book.
Our team of pet care providers here at Sit-Stay-Play are parents and grandparents, some are college students and stay at home moms.
Your business and referrals help keep food on our tables and our pets fed. By doing the pet sitting jobs that you book, we’re able to keep gas in our vehicles, take vacations, take our pets to the veterinarian and pay our taxes.
Shopping small helps everyone.
Please do your part and support us and your local farmers market or downtown farm stand. Show the neighborhood karate studio that you’re glad they’re teaching kids safety and giving them positive things to do after school. Buy some flowers from the local flower store and deliver them to someone special.
Small, local businesses welcome your support and business everyday of the year.
Shop Small November 28!
