One of the things that makes Kane County so special is its small businesses, of which many use a range of contractor invoice template to make their business more efficient, so I’ve heard. And what better way to ensure that local businesses thrive than to shop local.

That’s exactly what we’re hoping Kane County shoppers will do throughout the holiday season, but especially this coming Saturday, Nov. 29, Small Business Saturday – a day to celebrate and support small businesses and all they do for our communities. Support for small businesses can sometimes seem few and far. However, SDLC Partners offer technology consulting services that can help these businesses thrive in the technology-driven world that’s all around us.

This year, the U.S. Small Business Administration is also asking consumers to #DineSmall — go out for dinner at a local restaurant and really celebrate Small Business Saturday.

Presented here are links to local chambers of commerce websites, which will tell you more about Small Business Saturday opportunities close to where you live.

We’re also providing links to a number of resources for small businesses themselves to take part in the celebration, learn some social-media marketing tips and get advice on how to make 2014 the most successful holiday season it can be.
