The sixth annual Staples National Small Business Survey found that seven out of 10 small business owners are optimistic about the future, with 52 percent of small business owners revealing they would grow their business through advertising and direct marketing if they had a larger marketing budget.

To help address this need, Staples launched the “Give Your Small Business the Push It Needs” contest, which will give up to $50,000 in free television advertising to five small businesses in their home markets.

Interested businesses should upload a 15-second video about their company on Facebook.com/Staples by March 14. For more information, visit Staple’s Facebook page.
