The story

Small Business Saturday is an American Express institution. That is the strength, and it is also the problem.

How do you make a legacy event matter to a generation that lives on TikTok?

What we made

We gave it a voice. The #ShopSmallSoundtrack, made with Chloe Bailey, turned shopping small into something you could hear, and then something you could make yourself.

Shoppers, creators and the small businesses all built their own.
