The campaign kicked off on April 28 and within 48 hours more than 500 submissions from small businesses had been made. "We felt it was important to use our media network for good by encouraging local people to support local businesses," he said. "Receiving all the positive feedback from small business owners was genuinely heart-warming. I'm just glad we could pitch in and help out so many small businesses around the country," Pitchblack creative partner Tom Paine added.
