(From the Chamber Pacesetter)
A message from your Chamber President.
Shop local. You hear it all the time. Spend your dollars at home. Keep the local economy strong. Shop local. Shop local. Shop local.
If it’s said so often, you might be wondering why I think it’s important to say it again.
Just bear with me, while I give you six reasons that aren’t talked about as often as the “multiplier” or “trickle down effect”, where for example, a dollar spent in a retail store may then be spent by the store owner to pay rent, the landlord may spend the dollar at the grocery store, the grocer a the gas station, the gasoline station owner at the hardware store, the hardware store owner at the pharmacy and so forth. It is when the dollar is taken down the road to the store in the next city that the multiplier effect is diminished. Every dollar that a community member spends outside of the community diminishes the economic health of the community. It DIMINISHES the economic health of your community! Wow…that’s really something to think about. But I said I was going to give you six different reasons for shopping local.
