At Get Local, we’re dedicated to helping local businesses thrive. In light of recent extreme difficulties local businesses are facing, our priority is to protect local businesses. Many small businesses that are not online and e-commerce enabled are being disproportionately affected by Covid-19. The situation is dire for these small businesses.
