@stefano excellent post, I wholeheartedly agree. When we buy from small businesses we:
- talk directly to the owner, always someone who cares, put their hearts at work, are proud about doing it well, and have their lives dependent on it
- do not pay for unexplainable overheads and time-lags, and will definitely not been led by the nose into nonsensical labyrints of buzzwords, lingo, meetings, powerpoint, and bureaucracy
- contribute to the local economy
Long live small businesses 🙂 !
