Introducing Shift Your Spending Week

Introducing Shift Your Spending Week

If every household in Salt Lake City shifted just 10% more of their spending to locally owned, independent businesses, $487 million dollars would stay in the Utah economy! $487 million! Imagine the impact if every household in the state shifted just 10% of their spending toward locally owned businesses.

That is the heart behind Shift Your Spending Week, which launches on Friday, November 23rd and runs until Saturday, December 1st. As the holiday shopping season begins, Local First Utah plans to conduct a thorough educational and marketing campaign to illustrate the value of locally owned, independent businesses to our economy and our community.

Local First Utah will be organizing the Shift Your Spending Pledge, an opportunity for consumers to publically declare their support for local businesses and to commit to shift a minimum of 10% of their holiday spending toward local businesses.

Additionally, Local First Utah will offer businesses who sign up to participate in Shift Your Spending Week comprehensive branding and marketing tools designed to engage and educate customers about the vital role local businesses play in our economies and communities.

For more information regarding Shift Your Spending Week, or to sign up your business, please email Kristen@localfirst.org.
