FIBA Independents Week

Independents Week
July 1st -7th

Independents Week is a national event organized by the American Independent Business Alliance, our parent organization. During that week, independent business alliances across the country are encouraged to celebrate their local businesses and raise awareness within the community about how important local business is for a healthy economy.

FIBA is putting together press releases for the local media and a flyer/bag stuffer for our members to pass along to their customers. We are also putting together a list of members running specials or discounts for that week. The flyer and press releases will contain the web address for the complete listing of specials as well as our member list. The specials list will be organized in a way that anyone can easily print it themselves for reference.

Keep in mind that Bikes, Babes, and Bling will be the 1st-3rd and this flyer can be a means to bring participants into those businesses located away from Dickson St. We especially ask members along Dickson St to pass out the flyer during Bikes, Babes, and Bling in order to help our other members draw in some customers during the bike rally. We will do something similar during the large fall rally.

Think about what you would like to do for Independents Week and email it to us by Friday, June 18th for inclusion on the listing.

Thanks -
