SUMMARY
The recession was tough on everybody, especially small business owners. But some owners succeeded by finding new, innovative ways to run their businesses. For many of them, American Express OPEN was a key part of their success. Inspired by these owners, OPEN launched a campaign to turn millions of other owners onto this more enlightened way of running a business. It was a system we called Booming. OPEN helped small businesses by providing them with the inspiration and tools to Start Booming.
