I'm in Glendale, CA and there are several smaller businesses on a street called Brand near here. There are also many pockets of small businesses in neighboring communities like Eagle Rock, Silverlake, and Los Feliz.

Attending community events and giving charitable contribution to local schools, churches, etc. is very important for small businesses to improve their local profile.

It's seen a lot of growth in the past view years since launching. In 2015 spending on that day reached $16.2 billion so not too shabby. Anecdotally I saw a great majority of businesses in my area participating last year and I think it will grow even more this time around.
