Thank a Veteran- Trust a Veteran- BUY VETERAN

July 21, 2011

Being a part of Military Spouse Magazine (www.milspouse.com), I am fortunate to learn about all of the resources that exist for our military community. Did you know over 3 million businesses in America are veteran owned*? So, you can benefit from the Buy Veteran Movement whether you are a veteran who owns a business, a veteran who wants to own a business or a supportive American who wants to support our Nation’s heroes. When polled, 95% of Americans revealed that they felt committed to our veterans and a key way for them to show support is to support their businesses.

The foundation of this campaign is that we know key characteristics exist within our veterans: they are skilled, they are structured, and they are committed to mission success; they carry those traits with them after their active duty status has changed so their businesses are prone to have more efficient products and services. I highly encourage you to visit their site and register your business if you are a veteran, you can receive a free membership to advertise what you do.  Also, you can search their site for veteran owned businesses by you and share the information with your friends.

The website is: www.buyveteran.com & visit their Facebook page www.facebook.com/BuyVeteran

We are one team, if one succeeds we all succeed; support the Buy Veteran Movement today by encouraging Americans to buy from our Nation’s heroes.

Great Site

Definitely an interesting concept..
I'm wondering if they are coming out with a smartphone app? Would be very useful when out and about.

Thanks for the tip-off though! 

Great suggestion

The app idea is genius, I am going to forward that to them.
