Why Should You, The Consumer, Shop
Local Businesses?
Spending your dollars locally makes a
big difference .
Supporting local small independent
businesses is a wise choice and insures
the economic future of local
communities. Many studies confirm
that local independent businesses
and restaurants generate more than
three to four times the local economic
activity of national chains. Taxes
collected from such local shop owners
bring in up to six times the revenue,
while up to 70% of money spent in
national chains leaves the Tampa Bay
area. On a typical shopping day, if all
taxable purchases in the Tampa Bay area
were made at locally owned independent
businesses rather than national chains,
the local economy would benefit by over
$40 million dollars. By doing business
with locally owned independent
businesses you help circulate the money
right here, for local goods and
services from banking to health care to
printing and window washing, while
taxes support our schools, parks, law
enforcement and more. Your choices
create a richer community. All over
Tampa Bay, when you have a cup of
coffee, a slice of freshly baked pizza,
get a haircut, discover a good book,
find a unique gift at a locally owned
Small Business, your choice impacts our
local economy. So use

goal is to raise awareness of the
repercussions of spending money outside
of the local community, in particular,
on the World Wide Web. Today, computers
have made it easy for local consumers
to purchase goods and services at the
click of a button, but not necessarily
knowing geographically where their
money is going.
ShopLocalBusinesses.com
is challenging local consumers to get
involved by thinking before they spend
their mutual dollars outside our local
community. As a Local Independent
Owner, it's wise to place your business
in front of LOCAL consumers, who will
come back to your place of business
over and over again. More and more
consumers are using the Internet
coupled with the fact that over 85% of
the households in the Tampa Bay area
are connected to the Internet. The
World Wide Web is NOW a formidable
competitor, competing with you for the
local shopping dollars, removing
revenue out of the local area and, in
most cases, removing those dollars out
of Florida and, in many cases, out of
the U.S.

local economy. This is extremely

Tampa Bay. So when you are looking for
