With the help of local celebrities and the thousands voting, it was announced that Searcy won the spot during a launch party on Feb. 26.

SEARCY, Ark. — Searcy has officially won a spot on the Hulu reality show Small Business Revolution – Main Street! After weeks of voting, the town has won a $500,000 revitalization of six small businesses and the downtown area. The renovations will be featured on the eight-episode series Small Business Revolution’s fourth season.

Over 12,000 cities applied for this chance before it was continuously narrowed down. During the final week, Searcy actually lost its lead to Durant, Oklahoma.

However, with the help of local celebrities and the thousands voting, it was announced that Searcy won the spot during a launch party on Feb. 26.

The Small Business Revolution team from Deluxe toured the U.S. in January, visiting the top 10 communities considered for this year’s contest. From there, the top six towns were selected for a public vote that ended on Feb. 19. Now, filming will begin in early March as Brinkman and co-host, renovation icon Ty Pennington, along with marketing experts from Deluxe Corporation, look to make over the small business community in Searcy.

We’ll be following the town’s journey on the show, so stay tuned!
