Here are some ways to support small businesses online:

• Buy gift cards

  Gift cards can help small businesses generate revenue, even if you don't need their products or services right away. You can use gift cards as thank-you gifts for employees or as prizes for company events.

• Shop locally

  Buying goods and services from small businesses in your community can help stimulate the local economy and support their growth.

• Buy merchandise

  You can support small businesses by buying and wearing their branded items, such as t-shirts or caps. You can also tag them in photos.

• Mention small businesses on social media

  Promoting small businesses on social media can help increase their profile and customer base, which can lead to stronger cash flow. You can create free product videos to promote them.

• Order online, pick-up, or delivery

  Many small businesses still offer pick-up or delivery, which keeps the business going and provides income for delivery drivers.

• Try subscription services

  Many businesses offer free trials for subscription services. You can try them and continue using them if you like them.
