Sharing some Small Business Love

It's no secret that I do my best to champion other small businesses, and I think one of the best things I can share with my wonderful subscribers is just how many other small businesses are out there that you might not have found yet.  

Here I'm sharing 6 other small product based businesses that I have only just found this year that I think just might appeal to you!

Just for 100% clarity these are businesses who I have crossed paths with this year in some way, either through other small business groups I'm part of, events I've taken place it or because I've spotted them some other way.  I've not been a customer of every single one of these businesses, but I have got to know each of the owners just a little bit and it's on that basis - and the fact that their products have caught my eye - that I'm sharing them.  Right, that point made, let's dig in!
