Yup, It's Free

We've all heard the "buy local" messages popping up in communities large and small across the country. In living the small business lifestyle, we know just how important it is to support area merchants. In an effort to support our local ecomony and fellow business owners, we are offering these BuyLocalILM.com posters for FREE. Please stop by the shop, pick one up and display it in your store window, or wherever you think it works best to share the message with your customers.

Let's re-cap why it is all so important!

1.You Matter More!

   You know the person behind the counter & they know you!  Local businesses thrive on reputation, which means higher standards of customer service.  Enjoy!

2. Invest in Our Community & Keep Dollars Local

   $0.70 of every dollar spent at local businesses stays locally.  Only $0.43 spent at corporate chain stores stays local.  Money spent outside our area, including online, give back $0.00!

3. Embrace What Makes Our Community Different

   Live, Eat, & Celebrate our regional culture to resist the "mall-ification" of America. Share & Promote our local beaches & riverfront,  seafood & cuisine, arts & crafts.

4. Growth in Local Choices

   An area with many locally owned businesses promotes variety, competition, lower prices . . . & convenience!  Business owners will stock what their customers buy!

5. Support Local Job Growth

   Small local businesses are the largest employers nationally.  More local jobs retain local talent & innovation, reduce commute times & traffic and strengthens a community vision!

6. Local Non-Profits Recieve More Support

7. Help the Environment

8. Encourage Entrepreneurship

9. Benefit From Local Experts

10. Make ILM A Destination!
