#SBS Small Business Sunday

#SBS is one of the leading small business networks in the UK with over 4,000 active members.

Each week, Theo Paphitis welcomes 6 small businesses who tweet, comment or post an image to @TheoPaphitis describing their businesses to the #SBS community. #SBS now runs on X, Instagram and LinkedIn.

Theo-logy

Theo says, “I admire people who have passion and energy. If you cannot bore your friends to death about your own small business then something is seriously wrong. I was struck by the number of business owners on Twitter (now X) who wanted to tell me about their new products and services. Small Business Sunday was born so that people have a specific time slot to post and pitch their ‘sell’ directly to me. #SBS, marking its 15th anniversary in 2025, now runs on X, Instagram and LinkedIn and I am constantly blown away by the depth and quality of the entrants.”
