Why it’s Important to Shop Local in 2021
2020 was a year like no other in our lifetime and, if you’re like a majority of Americans, you are probably hoping for a fresh start in the new year. With the coronavirus pandemic ravaging the global economy and wiping out our social calendars, celebrating milestone events will no doubt have a different feel. When you’re shopping for birthdays, anniversaries, and other special occasions, consider supporting local businesses. The math for buying close to home is compelling—for every $100 spent at a locallyowned business, $73 remains in the local economy, and $27 leaves. Compare that to the same $100 spent at a non-locally owned business, where $43 remains in the local economy and $57 leaves. Non Profits Receive Greater Support. Local business owners donate more to local charities than non-local owners. Unique Businesses Create Character & Prosperity. The unique character of your local community is defined in large part by the businesses that reside there, and that plays a big factor in your overall satisfaction with where you live and the value of your home and property. Most New Jobs Are Provided By Local Businesses. Small local businesses are the largest employers nationally. Plus the more jobs you have in your local community the less people are going to have to commute which means more time and less traffic and pollution. Customer Service Is Better. Local businesses often hire people with more specific product expertise for better customer service. You are also going to see these people around town and they are less likely to blow you off or be rude because they have to face you day after day. Local Business Owners Invest In Community. Local businesses are owned by people who live in this community, are less likely to leave, and are more invested in the community’s welfare and future. Competition And Diversity Leads To More Consumer Choices. A marketplace of thousands of small businesses is the best way to ensure innovation and low prices over the long-term. You Matter More. We talk a lot about exerting influence with your purchasing choices, or “voting with your wallet.” It’s a fact that businesses respond to their customers but your values and desires are much more influential to your local community business than the large big box stores.
