When it comes to COVID-19, not only has the world gone crazy with selling out grocery stores, stockpiling toilet paper and cancelling every event known to man… But they have also forgotten about us… the little guys! Remember to support small business!

Whilst we are all suffering in one way or another, with a pending re-run of the depression, times are hard – for us all, but don’t forget about us.

When looking at ways to cut down costs you go through your list of needs versus wants and work out what you really can cull from your list, to survive. Generally first off the rank is those items or services from small businesses.

But when you are writing your lists and setting out your budget please try and leave one expense on there to help out any struggling small business.

For me, I am still plotting along. But as businesses cut hours, reduce staff, cut costs or even close, my work load gets smaller and so does my bank account.

We all need to do our part to try and help one another, in the true Aussie Spirit!

What can you do?
– Keep one of your expenses. Maybe instead of a coffee a day, make it every second day;
– Buy a gift voucher NOW to use later;
– Share businesses on social media to get the word out;
– Invite your friends to business pages on social media;
– Like and comment on their posts; AND
– Don’t forget them!

Help keep small businesses running, so they can keep their families running – support small business.
