With the holiday shopping season upon us, it's more important than ever to keep Delta’s local businesses top of mind when tackling your shopping lists. While it may be convenient to check off your holiday gift list using large online retailers, Delta’s local businesses offer personalized customer service that you can’t get from a chat bot. The holiday season is the perfect time to spread cheer and offer good tidings to local merchants.
Here are five ways you can support local businesses in Delta this season.
1. Shop Local Online
Order your gifts through local business websites and social media, or via phone or email. Online purchases support local without leaving home.
2. Purchase Gift Cards
Purchase a gift card from a local business now to use later. Buy for a future date night, shopping spree, or lunch out with family!
3. Gift Local
Gifts you can buy in big box stores are also available in Delta’s local stores. Purchase from small business owners who live in your neighbourhood and know your name.
4. Write Good Reviews
Write five positive reviews of your favorite local businesses during the month of December. Facebook, Google, and Yelp are all great sources for review writing.
5. Use Social Media
Follow your favourite Delta business’s social media to find great gift ideas for your whole family. Like, Comment, and Share their posts with all of your friends and followers!
