NOVEMBER 28 SHOW YOUR LOVE FOR SMALL BUSINESS

By
Education & Training with Performance Development Strategies

Did you know that the biggest source of new job creation in the United States is small business.  By helping small business were our helping ourselves by boosting our economy.

This is why in Westchester and Putnam County NY our Workforce Investment Board is funding the Just Add One program to help local entrepreneurs grow and hire people.  You can read about that in my recent post.

On Saturday November 28th please remember to support your local small businesses by #SHOPSMALL.


I plan on supporting the stores at Armonk Square.  These include Tazza Cafe coffee shop, Bowls Handcrafted Salads & Soups, Lilies and Lace lingerie and swimwear store. Also, Fortina, the trendy Italian restaurant specializing in pizzas, and DeCicco’s family supermarkets.

Hi Grant:

I love supporting small business as I am one of them. I have been buying goods made in Connecticut and been visiting small retail stores. They are the backbone of the community.

Have a great day Grant!

Yes, small business is the largest source of new jobs in this country and if we could eliminate many of the regulations, there would be more hiring.

Hi Grant.  Doesn't small business create 70% of all new jobs?  Support them.

I hope to get out and visit some of our small businesses. It is so hard for them to compete against the big boys.

Debbie - it depends.  Sometimes they are better stocked and give better service. I am thinking about a hardware store in our town vs Home Depot.
