🚨 Small business reminder:

If I can’t easily figure out WHERE you’re located from your page, there’s a good chance I’m leaving—and probably not coming back to search for it.

People are busy. Attention spans are short. And the way we search for businesses has changed.

📍 Make your location obvious.
📍 Put it in your About section.
📍 Include it in your bio when possible.
📍 Don’t make people hunt for basic information.

If someone has to dig through your posts to figure out where you are, you’re adding an unnecessary step between them and becoming a customer.

Make it easy for people to find you. 🧡

🌟 Feature Friday: Market 1424 & Linked by Market 1424 🌟

This week’s Feature Friday shines the spotlight on Market 1424 & Linked by Market 1424, owned by the wonderful Abigail Schmidt! 💙

Located at 1424 Union Road in Concordia, this unique farm stand is built on a dream years in the making. Abigail began creating custom shirts in 2018 and dreamed of one day owning a storefront. After a few unexpected detours, that dream took a new direction when her family purchased their farm in 2025. Instead of waiting for the “perfect” building, she created something special right at home—a self-serve farm stand with a big vision for the future.

What makes Market 1424 truly unique is that the new stand is powered entirely by solar energy and features heating and air conditioning for year-round shopping. During open hours, customers can stop by, browse, and shop at their own pace. ☀️

You’ll find:
🍞 Fresh sourdough breads
🫐 Delicious baked goods
🍬 Freeze-dried candy and foods
✨ Permanent jewelry
👜 Boutique accessories and retail items

If you’re visiting for the first time, Abigail recommends trying the Blueberry Crumble Bread, Blueberry Cinnamon Rolls, or the Sourdough Monster Cookies—and they all sound amazing! 😍

One of the sweetest parts of this business is its purpose. Every dollar earned from baked goods goes directly toward Abigail’s two children’s homeschool supplies, activities, extracurriculars, and savings. She also hosts a Pay What You Can baked goods day each month because she believes everyone deserves access to good food. ❤️

📅 Coming Soon: A Fall Open House is tentatively planned for September 12, featuring baked goods, freeze-dried treats, boutique items, handmade crochet pieces from Abigail’s grandmother, and permanent jewelry with no appointment needed.

The best way to support Market 1424 right now is by liking and sharing their page and stopping by the stand once it opens (goal opening: September 1)—even if it’s just to check it out and say hello!

Let’s show some love to another incredible local small business making a difference in our community. 💙

✨ Building Social Friday Feature ✨

This week’s spotlight is on Bound by Grace , owned by Jordan Carson! 💙

Jordan is based in Beloit, Kansas, but you’ll often find her traveling to surrounding communities for vendor events, private parties, and birthday celebrations.

After becoming a stay-at-home mom to her two little ones, Jordan wanted a way to help support her family while also getting the chance to connect with other women in the community. In February 2026, she took a leap of faith and started Bound by Grace—and she’s been creating meaningful connections ever since.

What she loves most isn’t just the jewelry—it’s the people. Every appointment comes with a conversation, a memory, and sometimes even the beginning of a lasting friendship. 🥹

One thing that really stood out to me is Jordan’s heart for supporting other small businesses. She partnered with two local makers to create custom charms and connectors exclusively for Bound by Grace—giving other entrepreneurs an opportunity to grow right alongside her. That’s what community is all about. 💙

✨ What does Bound by Grace offer?
⚡ Permanent bracelets
⚡ Anklets
⚡ Necklaces
⚡ Rings
⚡ Even toe rings!

With 30+ chain options in 14K gold-filled and sterling silver, you can feel confident you’re getting beautiful, high-quality jewelry that’s made to last.

📍 Where to find Bound by Grace next:
🍉 Clyde Watermelon Festival — September 5
🎄 Beloit Holiday Fair — October 24
✨ Coming soon to The Red Shed in Nebraska!

Be sure to check out Bound by Grace on Facebook and show Jordan some love! Supporting small businesses doesn’t always mean making a purchase—a like, comment, share, or recommendation can make a huge difference. 💙

Hot take: These numbers aren’t even the most important. 👀

Analytics can help you spot trends, but they don’t measure customer loyalty, referrals, repeat business, or the relationships you’re building.

Keep creating. Keep showing up. Keep serving your audience. That’s what matters most. 💛

☕ Welcome to your first Building Social Break ⛓️‍💥

Every weekend, we’re taking a quick break from strategy with something a little lighter… but hopefully just as helpful. 💙

Ever open Canva with a million ideas, then suddenly forget what your brand is supposed to sound like? … I’ve been there 😅 Here’s your reminder: if your gut says, “That’s not me,” listen to it. And if you catch yourself thinking, “I love this font. I love these colors. I love this vibe,” pay attention to that, too.

That’s your brand trying to find its voice. 🙂‍↔️
