"As one of the top tourist destinations in the world, Las Vegas provides a great deal of opportunity for small businesses to gain significant exposure," said Brad Smith, executive vice president of customer experience, Sage North America. "With city officials pushing to diversify the economy, small businesses play a key role as the backbone to a diversified economy."

Self-employment in Nevada has experienced growth in the last decade, with more than 39,000 small businesses in the region. The Las Vegas economy has a bright future ahead as the region is experiencing tremendous backing from private and public partnerships while undergoing revitalization in key tourist destinations that is attracting small businesses, corporations and investors.

With this tour, Sage is also kicking off a nationwide "Shop Local" campaign, through which it is encouraging consumers and businesses to support businesses locally based in their communities. 

The Sage Listens RV Relay will make its next stop in Reno, Nev., on August 20 and 21.
