Calling All Entrepreneurs in Somers: We Want to Tell People About Your Business

SOMERS, NY — Do you own a laundry, frozen yogurt cafe, wine shop or car repair? Do you run a home-based business but there's not enough money in the budget for advertising? Well, we think every local business has a story worth sharing with the community.

And that’s the belief behind this series at Patch — to shine the spotlight on all our favorite local businesses, and to learn a little about the ones we may not know that well.

We’ve created a simple way for local business owners to answer a few quick questions. Your answers will come directly to Patch’s editorial staff, and we’ll publish them in Q&A format articles for the community to read and share.
