We love small businesses. In fact, it’s our mission to help small businesses to do more and grow more with our tools and guidance. That’s why we are proud to join with American Express to support the 10th annual Small Business Saturday on November 28, 2020!

What is Small Business Saturday?

The idea for this special day is to encourage people to shop small during the post-Thanksgiving weekend and support their local economies. It has become a holiday shopping traditional dedicated to supporting all kinds of businesses — from the corner store, to your favorite local restaurant, to your neighborhood comic book shop — and everything in between!

When is Small Business Saturday?

Small Business Saturday is scheduled for Saturday, November 28, 2020. This nationwide effort is poised to direct lots of retail traffic and revenue to U.S. small businesses. And you’ll want to be a part of it.

Since Small Business Saturday started, U.S. customers have reported spending an estimated total of $85 billion at independent retailers and restaurants. Not bad!
