On what day is National Be Heard Day celebrated? March 7

What is National Be Heard Day? This day is for giving a platform to the 145 million small businesses around the United States who can be overlooked by large organizations. About two-thirds of small businesses only survive for two years. But, National Be Heard Day is looking to lessen the statistic by encouraging local, mom-and-pop businesses to utilize modern marketing tactics to their advantage.

Who founded this day?  This day was founded by Business Mentor Shannon Cherry in 2004.

What is the hashtag? Use the hashtag #NationalBeHeardDay when sharing on social media.
