🌟 Let's talk about the dynamic force that small businesses bring to the table. They're not just participants; they're the trailblazers shaping the economic landscape in unique ways. From fostering local employment to driving innovation, here are 5 ways small businesses are shifting the economy: 1️⃣ Creating jobs and opportunities in our communities. 2️⃣ Injecting innovation and creativity into the market. 3️⃣ Supporting sustainability with eco-friendly practices. 4️⃣ Fostering diversity and inclusivity in the workplace. 5️⃣ Driving local growth and prosperity. This week and beyond, let's remember: our support for small businesses goes beyond simple actions like purchases or social media shares; it's the engine that fuels our economy.

About us
Beyond Main believes there’s a better way to buy and sell. We’ve created a platform that doesn’t ask consumers to sacrifice their values for convenience, and that makes local goods discoverable in an instant. Beyond Main is a shopping experience that allows both the shopper and shop owner to have an impact beyond the sale while supporting, uplifting, and giving back to the community they share. Beyond Main wants to create a world where local charm isn’t restricted to a single main street. For customers, our platform captures the energy, character, and excitement of discovering a new shop, making it convenient and accessible to everyone, everywhere. We don’t just list products on a website. We transport customers to vibrant locales, allowing shop owners to open their doors to those who might otherwise pass it by. Beyond Main empowers shop owners to expand while staying true to who they are and the way they do business. Unlike traditional online marketplaces, Beyond Main offers tools, guidance, and support to help businesses get the hang of a new way of selling and double down on their growth. When shops join Beyond Main, they don’t just join a cooperative e-commerce platform. They join a circle of values-driven entrepreneurs who want to grow without changing everything that made them start their business in the first place. And, they get in front of a community of conscious shoppers who are as passionate about shopping small as they are.
