Support local businesses
Small, independent businesses took a hard hit when they had to close down because of the coronavirus outbreak. Some of them moved their activity online and managed to somehow survive the crisis. Supporting any type of small business by purchasing their products, sending positive reviews or telling others about their products is essential in keeping the economy alive and supporting your neighbors.
“Supporting your favorite small businesses does not necessarily require you to buy something from them, you could merely refer others to their store. You can significantly assist small businesses by sharing the word about them with people you know whenever possible, whether through phone, email, social media, or in-person conversations,” explains Hassan Alnassir, founder and owner of the toy company Premium Joy.
