[OMS_MANAGERS] FW: #MyFlorence Small Business Revolution Update

[STUART Sheri * OPRD]

Sending over the listserv on behalf of Ellen Huntingdon, president of the Florence downtown program

Good afternoon,

I wanted to reach out and see if you would help us spread the word and give Florence a chance to be the next featured town in the Small Business Revolution Season 3! If you haven't heard about the Small Business Revolution yet, please check out their website<https://www.deluxe.com/small-business-revolution/> and learn about what a win for Florence could mean for our community!

We just learned that Small Business Revolution (SBR) will be announcing the top 5 towns on Thursday, February 13th at 7:00am EST (that's 4:00am for us on the west coast).

IF Florence makes it into the Top 5, the next step will be a week-long national vote that will run from Feb. 13th until Feb. 20th. More details on the voting process to come, but for now we know that voting will take place at SBR's website: https://www.deluxe.com/small-business-revolution/

In 2017, there were about 1 million votes cast nation-wide. The winning town received over 350,000 votes! If Florence is in the Top 5, we will possibly be one of only two towns on the entire west coast in the running for this series. We would love your support in mobilizing the Pacific Northwest for our cause!

So for now, please mark your calendars for 02/13/2018 and you can watch the Top 5 Announcement on Facebook live by following The Small Business Revolution: https://www.facebook.com/smallbizrev

And if Florence is in the top 5, you can start voting immediately on February 13th. Please feel free to reach out to me for more information as I am the official point of contact between our town and Deluxe.

Also, SHARE this information with your contacts and Pacific Northwest media outlets. The voting is open to everyone, so share with your extended friends and family, wherever they are across the nation. We want to be as prepared as possible if we make it to the next round, so keep your fingers crossed.

On behalf of the community of Florence, Oregon, thank you so much for your energy and support! We are honored to represent Oregon in this adventure and hope that a win for Florence can spark a Small Business Revolution in all of our small towns and communities throughout the Pacific Northwest!

Thank you so much and have a wonderful day!
-Ellen
