Fly The Flag Outside The Building Or Even Outside Your House

Persons in the United States are known for demonstrating their nationalism with the use of the national flag. It is amazing to see even householders putting up flags outside their homes. Motor car sales business also are known for using lots of their country’s flags outside the business especially if they sell American cars. If you don’t have a Bajan flag you should go out and get one.

There are tons of roundabouts in Barbados in need of care. Choose one and make it stand out not only with your branding but also in its aesthetics. Adopting a part of the island to take care of is a truly philanthropic and nationalistic gesture.

Lighting up for November is one way to stand out. Showing your nationalism in lights can also carry over to making the business jovial at Christmas. Initiatives like this are taken for granted, but they subliminally help to get both staff and customers in a good mood to do business.

You may think that only Government building should be wrapped in national colours bunting but this is not the case. The discretionary decision of a company to engage in this practice demonstrates nationalism of the highest degree. Do it and your love of your country is sealed.

Advertise In the Independence Features

Advertise In the Independence Features

Around this time all of our local newspapers have Independence features. I would advocate putting an ad in one of them to wish Barbados a 'Happy Independence' for the immediate, but most of all residual benefits doing so brings. This keepsake will be around as a reference tool for years to come and 75 and 100 years from now when we are celebrating these milestones your company will be there among others who demonstrated nationalism from generations past, a wonderful legacy to leave of your stewardship.

Plan an Independence Event For Stakeholders

Plan an Independence Event For Stakeholders

An event, more than anything else, demonstrates your commitment to a cause, as they demand a lot of time and financial resources. I would suggest giving yourself a good lead time and involving a lot of persons to ensure success. Let your stakeholders take responsibility for the event let them feel it is their own so that they would be vested in its success. You can become known as being very nationalistic for a successful Independence event.
