Supporting New England business for Small Business Month 2024

October is Small Business Month, and to celebrate, the New England Times is once again giving small businesses around the region a chance to raise their profile for free!

Every day in October, we’ll run stories highlighting the great local businesses we have right here in our communities.

Being included in the stories is free. All you have to do is complete the form below, give us a few details about you and your business, upload your logo (if you have one) and a photo or two, and we’ll include you in the stories we run throughout October. If you want some inspiration, take a look at an example from last year.

It is first in best dressed though, with a maximum of 90 businesses included in the profiles.

You can also add on a free listing in our community directory, or a display ad on the website for the month at a discounted rate for those businesses we profile in the series.

Please share this offer with all of your favourite New England Businesses! Offer closes October 10, 2024 or when all spots are taken.
