If you’re not a Prime member, what are you waiting for? After all, it’s the only way to take advantage of all the savings.

This year, Amazon Prime Day is paying close attention to the small businesses. Because of the financial hardships that COVID has caused, the company is positioning small businesses to have a major advantage during the 2-day sale. During times where people are shopping with a purpose, it’s important to know what Black business owners are participating in Prime Day.
