Promote your Small Business

Become a part of the Spotlight Shop.

The M&T Spotlight Shop is an effort completely dedicated to promoting small businesses like yours on our platforms. This year, we’re promoting businesses in more ways than ever.

Online, in person and on social

As a Spotlight Shop business, you have the opportunity to be featured in our virtual shop, a section of our site where we promote your business & drive shoppers to explore and visit your site.

A select few Spotlight Shop businesses will have the opportunity to be featured in one or more of our in-person Spotlight Shop events, such as our mobile pop-up trailer.

We may also tap you to be featured in a blog we’re writing, share a quote for our social media channels or be included in our holiday shopping guide.
