Small Business Saturday Should Be EVERY Saturday
Running a small business takes resilience, passion, and endless determination to keep the doors open and the dreams alive. At Black Tiger International, we understand this deeply because we live it every day. That’s why we believe Small Business Saturday shouldn’t be reserved for a single day each year. Supporting small businesses should be a regular and intentional act—for the good of our families, our communities, and our future.
Why Small Business Matters
Small businesses are more than just companies. They’re the lifeblood of local communities, the embodiment of dreams, and a testament to hard work. These businesses often provide unique goods and services, enrich our neighborhoods, and create jobs for our friends and family. Yet, more often than not, small business owners find themselves competing against massive corporations for attention, customers, and market share.
Unlike large corporations, small businesses don’t have endless resources or billion-dollar ad budgets. What they do have, though, is heart. They rely on community support to stay afloat and thrive. By choosing to shop small—even once a week—we breathe life into the American dream and help keep it alive for the next generation.
Our New Mission
At Black Tiger International, we’ve decided to take action to further support and uplift the small business community. Starting now, we’ll dedicate our Saturdays to featuring other small businesses on our social channels. Our goal is to celebrate the hardworking individuals and families behind these companies, provide them with some well-deserved visibility, and hopefully inspire others to shop local too.
While big corporations don’t need the support, small businesses depend on it. By highlighting a small business every week, we hope to create a ripple effect that fuels awareness and drives the support that local businesses desperately need.
A Call for Community
Think about this for a moment. What if the future of our economy looks a lot more like the past? Imagine a world where we go back to buying eggs from the farmer down the road or handmade goods from the artist next door. A world where communities rally together to ensure their neighbors succeed. It might seem old-fashioned, but maybe it’s exactly what this country needs right now.
Supporting small businesses isn’t just about preserving traditions or nostalgia. It’s about building a sustainable future. It’s about resilience in the face of uncertainty. And, most importantly, it’s about keeping the spirit of the American family dream alive and well.
We Want to Feature YOU
As part of our new mission, we’d love to hear from other small businesses. If you’d like to be featured on Black Tiger International’s social channels, send us an email at info@blacktigerinternational.com. Tell us about your business, your story, and your passion. We’d be honored to help shine a light on your hard work and introduce you to our community of supporters.
Together, We Grow
The future may feel uncertain, but the power of small businesses gives us hope. Whether you’re a family running a corner bakery, an artist selling your creations, or a farmer feeding your neighbors, you’re a vital part of what makes our communities thrive. At Black Tiger International, we’re here to support you, celebrate you, and stand with you.
Small Biz Saturday should be every Saturday. Because when we uplift each other, we all rise.
