Hello, welcome to my simplify your home blog. I am a small business owner located in Draper. We provide home trends for entrepreneurs, home office and efficiency trends and simplify your home.

Today’s article focuses on the ways that small businesses benefit the Draper area and surrounding communities. Here is an excerpt from an excellent article at Chron.com1:

‘The money paid to local governments by small, local businesses is used for many things, including the financing of roads, public schools, sidewalks and parks. In addition, those tax dollars help to fund additional public service workers such as police officers and firefighters. Many cities subsidize youth sports leagues that are sponsored by the parks department. The money used to fund such activities comes from taxes, which are paid in part by small local businesses as sales tax revenue.’

I appreciate the Draper home business entrepreneurs and women who work from home that support my local Draper small business and other small businesses in the Salt Lake City area. I urge all Draper residents to patronize our local business community.
