pledge to buy local as a local
This July, your Chamber launched the month-long, small business support initiative, “S ouR Q”. SouRQ was inspired by our belief that as a community, we have the power to have a significant impact on the success of local small businesses. This is our Sarasota - SouRQ was a way for all of us to join together to support and celebrate our small business community. In particular, this initiative focused on generating business by driving customers to local small businesses, particularly in the restaurant and retail industries.
A huge THANK YOU to everyone who supported local business and participated in SouRQ.
Community members were able to participate by following these three easy steps:
1. Shopping at a Chamber member small business.
2. Taking a picture.
3. Emailing communications@sarasotachamber.com OR posting the picture in a public post on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter, tagging the Sarasota Chamber and using #SouRQ to be entered to win a $100 gift card from one of our participating Chamber member small businesses
