The Future of
Business Advocacy
Business advocacy is a special form
of persuasive activity undertaken by
business groups.
This is to influence government
policy-making affecting
international trade and local
regulations.
As the United States slowly reopens
after the lockdowns, the economic
fallout from the pandemic is all too
real for small businesses.
Small businesses were decimated
by the lockdowns and this
adversely affected their employees.
More than half of all small
businesses were shut down and
many will never reopen.
Why does this matter?
Small business in America employs
almost 60 million workers.
Without neighborhood bookstores
and restaurants, the United States
would not be the global
economic powerhouse it is.
The key here is the overall impact.
Because we have a free market
system, things are interconnected.
Employers and employees
feel the impact of an economic
shutdown simultaneously.
Large corporations are being
criticized for accepting
government assistance intended
for small businesses.
The problem is that your local
restaurant is more vulnerable than
that huge hotel chain.
The big question is where is the
small business advocacy
when things are normal?
Why is it ignored?
Prior to the pandemic, it was rare to
see any media, mentioning the
plight of small business owners.
Being a small business owner
is a scary proposition.
Government mandates that eat
profit don't help either.
It is time to pay attention to the
plight of small business because
these are the people who power the
United States' economy.
Let the pandemic be a huge wake-
up call for everyone. Roadblocks
need to be called out and resolved.
That is business advocacy
and it is the future.
