NO-COST WAYS TO SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESSES
- Give a review on Google, Yelp, or Facebook.
- Give them a shout out on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, or Twitter. Be sure to tag their business and say why you like their product or service. Photos are great!
- Email them a testimonial they can use in their marketing about why you value them, their service, or product.
- Call your favorite non-profit and see how you could volunteer – make phone calls, help with social media – there are all types of support you can do from home or with minimal social contact.
- If you have an event scheduled, try to reschedule instead of canceling or donating the fee you paid.
- If you can’t afford to keep paying people who work for you (think, cleaning, lawn, hairstylist, etc…) then send them a card of appreciation for their work.
