10 WAYS to support your small businesses


So how can you support small businesses during these difficult times?

10 WAYS to support 

your small businesses⠀






 1- BUYING FROM SMALL BUSINESSES: before buying from a large online shop ASK Small businesses if they can match what you are about to purchase - explain you would prefer giving them your business. 
2- WRITTING A REVIEW: on Google / Facbook / Trust pilot ⁠⠀
Reviews are so helpful for a small business as this shows their brand as a trusted place to buy from, helping others make the decision to purchase their product or service.
3- TAG THEM ONLINE - a picture of one of their products or services you experienced/purchased
4- JOIN THEIR ONLINE CONVERSATION: like - share - comment their posts. Also, when you see a social media post from your friends business, give it a little like, share it if it resonates, drop a nice comment. Show it some love. 
Just help them out a bit to get better algorithms. 
Your likes and comments go a whole lot further than you think!  
5- JOIN THEIR ONLINE GAMES / challenges and share it online

6-USE THEIR HASTAG when sharing about them
7- BUY A GIFT CARD Want to inject some cash into a small business right now? Buy a gift card.
8- WHY NOT LEAVE AN EXTRA TIP if they exceeded your expectations
9-Sign up for their email list. Email lists allow small business owners to speak directly to you, offer you exclusive discounts, and learn more about what YOU want from them as a company. 
10- Don't ask for Freebies. Small Business Owners are in business to pay the bills and nobody works for free in this game. Unless the small business itself is doing a special free promotion...

So let's all do our bit to keep the small business alive!
Together we CAN!

#hashtag and @tag

Are you confused between #hastag or @tags ? Here is some clarifications: On Facebook, Instagram and Twitter , the pound sign (or hash) turns any word or group of words that directly follow it into a searchable link.  This allows you to organise content and track discussion topics based on those keywords. So, if you wanted to post about social media for example, you would include #socialmedia  in your post to join the conversation.  You can click on a hashtag to see all the posts that mention the subject in real time. @Tagging people in social media photos can extend the reach of those photos, which is likely why some of us want to tag everyone and their brother – so to speak.  !!! But be careful with tagging people who are not actually in the photo. It could be considered spam or at least annoying. !!! only tag people in photos – no matter the network (Instagram, Facebook and Twitter all allow it) – when people are actually in them. Hope these clarifications help 😎😎😎 Keep it real !

We have been there. Done it and it did not work for us. FOCUS FOCUS FOCUS is the answer to productivity. We also agree that doing too much all the time will put our mind and body in a biological state of stress which in turn will eventually prevent us from using our brain or other physical functions at their fullest capacity.  Less Stress = better productivity We would also add that looking after one's physical body from the inside out (dealing with internal
