These are great tips. I love West Tenth! It came to Utah at such a helpful time.
Supporting women entrepreneurs is a huge need! Fantastic suggestions!
Those were all good suggestions. Thanks for the push to support women-owned businesses.
Fantastic Advice! It should be mentioned that most of the profits of home-based businesses go directly back to her family and stay within the community. Soccer lessons, school activities, and other local businesses because she does know and participate in so much of the community.
This is awesome! Support local business.
Perfect suggestions on how to support entrepreneurs, especially if you can’t make a purchase!
Great suggestions
So important! Great ideas!
I loved the tip about not asking for the friends and family discount. Can’t wait to support all the home-based businesses in our community.
West Tenth is literally genius- they make it so easy to support your local female entrepreneurs
I also love the part about being a real customer. There’s so much that goes into these crafts and services, it’s worth the price to have something special and made/done just for me! (which is probably still lower than the market value to be real). Such a great call out.
Great tips on how to support each other during these difficult times. Love the services I’ve tried in West Tenth!
Great advice for women with a home based business! As a woman in business support and sharing the word is what is needed. Thanks to Lyn and West Tenth for this opportunity.
I think this will be so awesome for women who want to make primary or side income with valuable services and a welcomed alternative to MLMs in Utah.
Great video, thank you!

Love the app, I always try as a small business owner my first to spread my dollars where I live, love that they are helping home based talent thrive too!
I already have the West Tenth app and there are so many great businesses! I’m so impressed with the shops and this video was a good reminder of how to support them.

West Tenth is a great digital marketplace if you are looking for crafted services and custom goods from people that live in your neighborhood.
Great advice and wonderful forum to promote women owned business. We need that part of our economy now more than ever.
What a positive good news story. Supporting local business is so important. These businesses all offer such special services that benefit our families and community. Highly recommend
Great tips on supporting home-based business. I love the concept on of being a true customer. So important for people to remind that when we shop local, our dollars reach more than that one business. The dollars are reinvested into the local economy through dance classes, sports programs and more.
A great reminder of how to support women-led businesses in your community!
Promote, comment, like and share! What a great way to support the experts in our community.
