Note: employees working, hours worked, and businesses open now use a chain-linked method and aren't directly comparable with previously published levels.

More small businesses are open than a year ago. Fewer employees are working in them. Our October Main Street Health Report (100K+ businesses, 2M+ hourly employees): businesses open +0.6%, employees working -3.1%, hours worked -2.8% YoY. 🧵

[Homebase @joinhomebase]

The squeeze isn't just hiring. Turnover is up 11.3% YoY while hiring is up 1.2%. For owners: is your turnover up or down from last year? Are your busiest shifts covered first?

Full June Main Street Health Report → https://t.co/SQEEmQhp5j

[Homebase @joinhomebase]

Small business workers are moving more than any summer in recent memory — and that's a good sign. Our June MSHR (100K+ businesses, 2M+ employees) shows turnover jumped 8% month over month. Last June: 1.2%. 🧵

[Homebase @joinhomebase]

Wages are 45.5% above January 2022 levels and still climbing. Workers know their value and are moving accordingly. In a "cooling" labor market, the view from Main Street looks different.

[Homebase @joinhomebase]

5/ The takeaway: Main Street is busy but careful, stretching the teams it has before committing to new hires.

1/ Small businesses are gearing up for summer, but they're adding hours, not headcount. Our May Main Street Health Report (100K+ businesses, 2M+ hourly workers) shows employees working up just 0.2% in May, while hours worked rose 1.2%.

[Homebase @joinhomebase]

4/ Wages hit a new high, but raises keep thinning. Growth slowed to 5.9%, down from 7.1% a year ago.

Calvin and Tina don't just want to make great food. They want Butter Baker customers to love it as much as they do. https://t.co/voSSC8CctO

That passion is what landed them a fanbase so loyal, they had to expand. Watch the full case study to see where they're going. 🍰

At Oscar's Photo Lab, the wait is part of it. 🎞️ Since 1982, the San Francisco shop has developed film for people who still love the process. It’s the kind of place where you swap stories about cameras, compare film rolls, and geek out over the little details that make every shot feel personal.

Tag a local business that’s keeping analogue alive.

Sea N' Soul isn't just a surf shop in Malibu. 🌊 It's where the community comes to feel at home. From the team to the regulars who show up week after week, this is what a real local business looks like. Homebase keeps the operations running, so the focus stays on the community.
