What your support helps us do

SmallSpotter is more than a list of business names. Every listing is reviewed, the platform is actively maintained, and we continue creating ways for small businesses to be noticed.

Free listings

Keeping the core directory free so eligible small businesses can be discovered without paying to participate.

Business review

Reviewing submissions before publication so SmallSpotter stays focused on real, eligible owner-led businesses.

Hosting and technology

Covering the infrastructure, tools, storage, security, accessibility, and maintenance required to operate the directory.

Small business visibility

Creating category campaigns and outreach that encourage people to discover and support independent businesses.

Free listings stay free.

Supporting SmallSpotter is completely optional. Businesses do not have to support SmallSpotter to qualify for a free listing, remain in the directory, or receive a fair review. Paid Featured options are separate from voluntary support.

Not ready to contribute financially?

You can still support the mission by discovering a small business, sharing a listing, or telling an eligible business owner about SmallSpotter.

Voluntary support of SmallSpotter is not represented as a charitable contribution and is not tax-deductible. SmallSpotter is operated by CM Brand Studio.
