Testimonial

Supporting local businesses and promoting the local economy is an important part of the Sustainable Times’ mission and focus. I therefore welcome the very existence of Dane Buy Local as an invaluable contribution to those same goals. On a more practical level Dane Buy Local has proven to be a great resource for the Sustainable Times, from editorial content to helping establish professional relationships with many local businesses. If Dane Buy Local didn’t exist already, it would have to be created urgently.

I buy local because I know it's often a better product that more often fits my needs, and keeps small, unique companies who care about their impact on the community and world, alive and open.

Our company, Total Awards & Promotions / AwardsMall.com, is enjoying the great relationships we're building as members of Dane Buy Local. Working on a committee has helped us to meet and get to know other members. We're proud to be part of an organization that believes in members helping members. The monthly membership events are becoming known as "The place to network!". I suggest that other local companies should come and find out what a great investment membership in Dane Buy Local can be.

Did You Know?

A local economy values relationships over transactions.  Doing business locally depends upon and builds social capital and longer-term thinking; conducting transactions long distance promotes anonymity and facilitates short-term profit-taking.”
