The importance of small businesses in our communities is undeniable. A recent survey of 8,000 U.S. consumers found 66% view small businesses as the lifeblood of their community and 73% say small businesses make their community a better place to live, with top benefits like creating a stronger sense of community and jobs. There is also near 100% agreement that small businesses go above and beyond for their customers and community and 64% say small business owners are community heroes. But, 7 in 10 say that small business owners should get more recognition.
“Every day, millions of small businesses across the U.S. serve their customers, strengthen their communities and play a critical role in powering our economy,” said Alex Chriss, EVP and GM, Small Business & Self Employed Group at Intuit. “Through Small Business Success Month, we are excited to celebrate the incredible impact small businesses have in our communities and continue to support them on their journey with the resources they need and the recognition they deserve.”
Small Business Hero Day Contest
Nominations are now open until 11:59 pm PT Friday, May 6, for the Small Business Hero Day Contest by Intuit QuickBooks and Mailchimp.* Any U.S. resident age 18 or older can nominate a small business in the U.S. for a chance for the business to win $20,000 for heroic efforts that impacted an individual or community. Whether it's the wedding caterer who scrambled to accommodate the larger-than-expected guest list, the plumber who arrived at 2 a.m. when a pipe burst, the 24-hour locksmith that got a locked-out family back in their home, or the restaurant owner who donated food to the local food bank, the ways that small businesses save the day—big and small—are as unique as they are. For more information and to submit a nomination, visit SmallBusinessHeroDay.com. Winners will be announced on Small Business Hero Day, May 31, 2022.
