Guide to Giving in a Pandemic
This year has certainly been a tough one for many people. If you are among the fortunate that are able to purchase gifts for loved ones, small businesses should be your first stop. It is no secret that our small businesses have been hit hard in this pandemic and most are probably hanging on by threads to stay open. The best part about buying someone a gift from a small business is that it will most likely be a unique gift that you will not have to worry about someone else purchasing a duplicate of or getting them something that they already have. Sometimes you can find a small business that specializes in one item, such as candles or coffee mugs or even a food type item. You could look into what they charge for a bulk purchase and give everyone on your list whatever that specialty item is. Facebook is another great way to see which businesses are running holiday bulk gifting deals. Many businesses offer discounts if you mention seeing their post on Facebook or if you like their page or follow any of their social media. It can also help to use Facebook as way of finding local or small businesses that are near you. If you are having trouble finding small businesses in your area, your town hall or business bureau is a great way to get a directory of small businesses. I always like to check American Express' website that sponsors the “Small Business Saturday” every year because it will cater your search to your location and it provides the companies name, address, phone number and even a link to the companies website. Just a general search for “small business Saturday” on your favorite search engine should bring the page right up.
