[2]Full-time Activism"Things may be close at the polling place, but they're not close at the cash register" - Shannon Coulter[2]When Donald Trump became president, Shannon was inspired to leave her marketing career to begin a career in full-time activism. Most notably, she launched the GrabYourWallet movement to boycott retailers that carry Trump-related products.[1] She began the campaign after hearing then-candidate Trump's comments about how he treats women, saying Grab them by the pussy; accordingly, she began the website GrabYourWallet as a response in the fall of 2016.[1][3] Her website is a spreadsheet listing retailers to boycott such as Macy's and Amazon, and is visited by thousands of people each day; during the 2017 Women's March, the site was visited by 32,000 persons per hour.[4] Coulter does not accept compensation for her campaign.[4] She runs the website out of an office which she rents by the hour.[4] Her efforts have been described as effective at encouraging numerous retailers to drop Trump-related products.[4] Efforts that began as a boycott have now grown into a movement that has pushed for a more ethical market due to the push from consumers.[2] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/business/wp/2017/02/13/the-woman-behind-the-boycott-that-is-pressuring-retailers-to-dump-the-trumps/|title=The woman behind the boycott that is pressuring retailers to dump the Trumps|author=Sarah Halzack|date=February 13, 2017|publisher=Washington Post|accessdate=February 24, 2016|quote=...Coulter began a campaign called GrabYourWallet, which encourages shoppers to stay away from retailers that sell all manner of Trump-branded goods,... big-name chains started to back away from Trump goods, including Neiman Marcus, Belk and, most prominently, Nordstrom — ...}} 2. ^1 2 3 4 {{Cite book|title=Modern Herstory: Stories of Women and Nonbinary People Rewriting History|last=Imani|first=Blair|publisher=Ten Speeds Press|year=2018|isbn=978-0-399-58223-3|location=California|pages=148}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.slate.com/blogs/xx_factor/2016/10/24/shoppers_boycott_ivanka_trump_s_clothing_line_to_protest_donald_s_comments.html|title=Shoppers Boycott Ivanka Trump’s Clothing Line to Protest Donald’s Misogyny|author=Suzanne Monyak|date=October 24, 2016|publisher=Slate magazine|accessdate=February 24, 2016|quote=...Coulter, the CEO of a communications agency, has called for a boycott of Ivanka's fashion line,...}} 4. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 {{cite web|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/25/business/the-unlikely-general-behind-an-anti-trump-boycott.html|title=The Anti-Trump Activist Taking On Retailers|author=Rachel Adams|date=February 25, 2017|publisher=New York Times|accessdate=February 24, 2016|quote=... rents by the hour, Shannon Coulter ticks off the activities she gave up in defiance of President Donald J.
