Support local businesses in your city! This month, Intuit is giving away $25,000 to a deserving local business.
The Love A Local Business competition lets fans, including customers, vendors, employees, and the community, determine who deserves some love - in the form of small business grants. Votes from small business owners and fans accumulate between January 1- 31, 2012.
Voting is easy, and fast.
Just share a few brief thoughts about why you love a local business. Nominate a favorite business yourself if you don't find it on the list. Only one vote per business, but you can vote for as many businesses as you like. The more votes a business gets, the more chances it has to win the $25,000.
Your words matter!
So make your opinion known, and vote to help out a deserving local business in your communinty. At the end of the month, one business is randomly chosen from all of the votes posted since the start of the contest on January 1st. Intuit has already awarded over $850,000 in small business grants.
