Personally, when I heard about RelyLocal.com and what they are all about, I immediately wanted to know how I could get involved. I’m tired of watching my favorite shops close their doors permanently because the money they need to stay open isn’t coming in. I don’t want my friends and neighbors to have to struggle so hard to make ends meet, all while simply trying to provide a service and improve the communities we call home. I don’t want my own hard earned money pouring into the hands of corporate owners who will never know or care about me or my community. I am ready to see my money and my time go towards improving my own hometown and the lives of my neighbors, rather than thoughtlessly sending my money overseas by relying solely on the large chains and the products which they import from foreign lands.
