Why Support Small Businesses on Saturday?
Let’s face it, Black Friday can be messy. Between the long lines and large crowds, it’s a day that often brings out the worst in humanity. People tend to become overly aggressive and end up overspending, while overflowing the cash registers of many global conglomerates. Small Business Saturday offers a much safer and more practical alternative for holiday spending with the added benefit of providing a big boost to small businesses and local merchants!
Reasons to Support Small Business Saturday
Economic Impact
When you support a local business, you’re supporting your community as a whole. The tax revenue made from small businesses provides revenue to the local government, which in turn benefits the community, with the money going to schools, parks, sidewalks, and other great causes like local firefighters and policemen.
Create More Jobs
Small businesses provide employment opportunities for people of all qualifications. According to the SBA Office of Advocacy, “Small businesses have generated 12.9 million net new jobs over the past 25 years, accounting for two out of every three jobs added to the economy.” Another boost to your backyard and beyond!

Better Customer Service
Small businesses are able to offer a more intimate and personable experience to their clientele. Because these businesses rely so much on positive customer relations, purchases, and reviews, you can be sure good service is among their top priorities. The people who work for local businesses are usually knowledgeable and passionate about the products they sell, unlike big businesses that offer robots and overseas call centers to raise your blood pressure while lowering any chance of customer satisfaction.
Unique Experience
Small businesses like Sacred Child Beauty offer a unique experience with one-of-a-kind products. What separates us from large corporations is our dedication to each individual’s health and happiness. That’s why we advertise clean, non-toxic makeup that performs well and is affordable. It’s a way to ensure our customers look and feel their best with our products.
Every big business starts out small in the beginning. It’s usually a combination of innovation and strong local support that helps a growing business thrive. Why not be a part of their success story? Skip the stampede on Black Friday and support Small Business Saturday instead!
