Welcome to our series featuring Daily Bizarre, Special and Unique Holidays – March 29th, 2021. Today is not only National Mom and Pop Business Owners Day but Smoke and Mirrors Day. Are you doing anything special for either Holiday?
National Mom and Pop Business Owners Day
This holiday is always March 29th and as child I am proud to say my parents were Mom and Pop Business Owners. As my dad owned his own Typewriter Company.
Not only lots of our family members are Mom and Pop Business Owners including David’s dad who runs a Trucking Company and at one time had a Mechanic Shop.
Charlie had his own Lawn Mowing Business last Summer. When Charlie was small David and Charlie has a Small Engine Business and repaired Lawn Mowers and Edgers.
Then there is me and off and on for most of my adult life I have ran a Mom and Pop Business including my Blog, Craft Fairs, a Radio Show and Direct Sales Companies like Avon and Usborne Books.
Is there individuals in your family who owns a Mom and Pop Business? If so leave me a comment then my family will check out there company and share with our Friends and Family.
About:
National Mom and Pop Business Owners Day celebrates small business owners. These individuals spend countless hours nurturing and growing their young companies. Workload demands, and lack of a hired staff, \translates into long and late hours.
They can miss family and personal events all due to the task of owning there own business. All in all, they love what they do. Because they are their own boss.
New businesses have always been vital, but not fully appreciated, part of the U.S. economy. On the retail side, they bring unique products to the marketplace.
Mom and Pop Companies provide stellar and personal service support. When you call a Mom and Pop company, you are more likely to get a real, live person.
Unlike national chains, they know their products. They offer outstanding products in niche markets. In manufacturing, they create new concepts and ideas, creating one of a kind products.
Please help us celebrate National Mom and Pop Business Owners Day by showing your support….shop Mom and Pop stores today, and everyday. Ask everyone you know to do the same.
Additional Holiday: Smoke and Mirrors Day– is always held on March 29
Smoke and Mirrors Day is a day of illusions. Did you know that the term “smoke and mirrors” means something is not really as it appears to be. People often put up smoke and mirrors to hide something. I am sure I have done this a time or two. Have you?
Smoke and Mirrors Day day is also referred to as the Festival of Smoke and Mirrors. I never knew that. Did you? Many of us will use any excuse to have a party or festival, so why not hold a Festival of Smoke and Mirrors?
Thank you,
Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
