During May, the Postal Service™ wants to recognize and support America’s entrepreneurs and small business owners by hosting Grow Your Business Day (GYBD) events nationwide. Events are held both virtually and in-person to provide small businesses with information on USPS® products and services that are designed to save time and money, increase customer traffic, and help businesses reach out to existing and potential customers.
This is the perfect time to engage and assist local businesses as they look for tools to bounce back from the challenges of the past year.
For help hosting an event, visit Maintenance Operations Support (MOS) to order a copy of the Business Connect Kit (SKU# 21Q2BCKITEVNTGUIDE). This kit is full of useful information to help you hold a successful event. Additionally, entering “GYBD” in the search bar of MOS brings up a list of invitations and flyers that you can order to help with your event:
Hosting a GYBD event provides both leads and activities. Remember to enter the events you hold into the Business Connect portal as a group activity, and for immediate attention for interested attendees to request sales assistance.
GYBD events are the perfect opportunity to show your community how USPS is working to grow small businesses, create jobs, and drive innovation. All events are posted on Postal Pro and at about.usps.com/newsroom, then updated weekly every Friday.
By supporting small businesses, the Postal Service can help them grow and prosper. Let’s work together this spring to help save Main Street, USA.
