We would like to take this opportunity to point out a few reasons why people should include their neighborhood merchants when making purchasing decisions. Although it seems self serving, it’s not just about us. We are including links to other locally owned small business for your reference.
Tax Revenue; Part of the sales tax we pay stays here, to improve schools, parks, and roads
Property Value; Who wouldn’t want to live near a thriving retail area? When the time comes to sell your house, the value of your house will be greater.
Relationships; Many of your local small business are owned by people who live in your neighborhood as well. Your children go to school with their children. You see them at the grocery store, at the concert in the park, or when you are out for a stroll.
Service; The service offered by your locally owned business is more personal, and caring. The person behind the counter isn’t just working for a paycheck, they are working to make their business and community a better place.
