Black Friday - Are You Shopping Small?

Nov 22

Black Friday - the biggest and best eCommerce event that happens once a year. Every year businesses around the globe slash their prices or offer great deals to consumers. In recent years it has even spread to the B2B world with companies offering one-time special service price offers.

You can expect anything from 10-90% off many products or services! It's a crazy day that extends over the weekend into Cyber Monday, and many websites crash from visitor overload. It's an event that businesses plan all year for; it's certainly one you want to be prepared for.

Choose to shop with small businesses

You've heard it before; you should shop small. It's now more important than ever. Without putting a downer on the mood, we're all aware we're in a cost-of-living crisis. Many small businesses are at high risk of losing their business and their hard work, and there's not much they can do about it.

So, it's down to us. This is what we're going to do, it'll support small businesses and save you money!
