tim-mossholder-qvWnGmoTbik-unsplashAcross the country, Americans are celebrating small businesses this week! Showing your support for Highland Park's small business community is easy.
 
Try one of the following tips:
  1. Visit your favorite restaurant - or order in. At cityhpil.com/restaurantmap, you'll find a list of HP restaurants offering convenient takeout, curbside, and delivery.
  2. Stop by your favorite shop and snap a photo with something you've purchased to share on social media. Remember to tag the business!
  3. Signal-boost your favorite business on social media by sharing their latest posts to your own page or your stories, commenting on a post, or tagging a friend.
  4. Visit one new business you've never visited before.
  5. Spread the love by purchasing a gift card at a local store and sending it to a friend.
  6. Write online reviews for businesses you've recently visited.
  7. Sign up for emails from your favorite HP spots, and be sure to follow them on social media.
  8. If you have the choice, opt for delivery services provided by the restaurant or store instead of third-party providers.
  9. Consider small businesses first the next time you're in the market for a big purchase. Ask for personal assistance that only a small business can provide.
  10. Browse the Welcome Back Promise map for a list of HP businesses committing to following public health best practices, and share the video to your social media!
