Supporting Local Businesses.
Hi there,
If you have a few minutes a week to support a Local Business, please do so. You can do any of the things on this docket or anything else you like to do to encourage interaction going in their direction.
Would love for people to post some recommendations of local companies or people who are in business on this post.

Thanks to all those who support others.
PS: Remember if you see a post on a Facebook business page and you want to give it some organic advertising, simply clicking on the heart or face emoji helps hugely. The thumbs-up is nice but gives no organic points for google to use to put that business front and centre when people are searching.
Happy Nearly Weekend Everyone!
Kind regards Rhonda Diprose
