Small Business Samaritans Featured Friday
Next Meeting: November 21, 2025 - 8:00am Friday
SBS Featured Friday meetings are hosted by Phillip Saxton. Mr. Saxton says, “Business owners need an organization that is dedicated to their success. It is absolutely necessary for business owners to grow, be encouraged and interact with fellow business owners to discuss ideas and challenges of day to day operations.”
SBS Featured Friday is a small business networking group that meets each Friday at 8am. We started our meetings in Dacula, GA and after several years, moved to The 1818 Club in Duluth Georgia. Because of the COVID-19 crisis, we started having Zoom meetings. In 2024, along with our Zoom meetings, we will have four in person gatherings. These in-person gatherings not only promote business development, but are also designed for business owners and operators to have fun.
Over the years, hundreds of business owners have benefited from attending our weekly one hour meetings. Our meetings are free. To receive an invite to attend, complete the ‘contact us’ form and include your email address.
Featured Friday Free Membership
Featured Friday is free for all business and those thinking about starting a business. This is a place to learn, test your ideas and have group discussions on business concepts and ideas. Our Friday meetings are always via Zoom at 8am Friday mornings.
In addition, you are invited to participate in our in person meetings, fellowships and parties/events.
Featured Friday EXPO.
This year, in 2025, we are introducing a new concept: Small Business Samaritans Featured Friday EXPO.
On Friday, September 19th, we had a wonderful EXPO. All vendors tables were fillled along with a wonderful turnout. Thank you so much for those that participated.
The EXPO was at Château 1870 Circa Spaces
491 Harbins Road
Dacula, Georgia 30019
This was no ordinary networking event. This was a
relational marketplace—a place where real conversations happened, where stories
were shared, and where meaningful business relationships began.
In addition to each business using the EXPO for their own, Phillip Saxton included his outstanding business consulting services. We have
individual business videos in production.

SBS FF 2025 Theme:
‘God Has His Hands On Us’. We Do The Will of the Father. Bring Honor & Glory to Him.
Business people are called
The meetings are denominationally inclusive and politically neutral and geared to business people sharing their faith in Jesus Christ and how that works in the marketplace. You do not have to be a Christian to attend, we just want people to know that we use Christian principles in business discussions. We believe that all business entrepreneurs are called by God to provide goods and services to our community. Businesses are to provide economic support and jobs for people living in the community. You do not have to be a Christian or even believe in God to start and operate a business. God uses all of us in the accomplishment of his purposes.
Many of our meetings feature a personal testimony. Join business owners and managers for our expanded teaching & fellowship events.
We expect to continue to have Zoom meetings well into the future. These meeting have benefited many business owners and we give praise to God for our success. We will plan on having in-person fellowships and meetings each quarter of the year.
Weekly Prayer
Dear Father, as we complete the end of this year, we ask for your immeasurable blessings on all SBS Featured Friday businesses. We look forward to marching with in the delivery of our goods and services to the communities that we serve. We give you honor and praise. Amen.
