The 350 Project

3: What 3 independently owned businesses would you miss if they disappeared? Stop in. Say
hello. Pick up something that brings a smile. Your purchases are what keep these businesses
around.

50: If half the employed population spent $50 each month at locally owned independent
businesses it would generate more than $42.6 billion in revenue. Imagine that positive impact
if 3/4 of the population did that.

68: For every $100 spent in locally owned independent stores $68 of that returns to the
community through taxes, payroll & other expenditures. If you spend that at a nation chain,
only $43 stays here. Spend it online, and NOTHING comes home.

1: The number of people it takes to start the trend... YOU!

Pass the info around!! PLEASE SHOP YOUR LOCAL BUSINESSES!
