“Micro-entrepreneurship” — solo or micro-businesses selling goods or skills — is trending upward on Google. In Fruita and Grand Junction, this localized entrepreneurial surge is reshaping commerce and community.

I’m Cory Thompson, and I’m excited about the ripple effect: one-person startups grow local revenue, increase job diversity, and deepen small-business ecosystems.

  • Warm community support for local creators
  • Resonates with the DIY ethos of western Colorado

Supporting the Movement

  • Create shared resource directories
  • Spotlight local micro-entrepreneurs regionally
