People fail everyday at games they don't want to play. They work jobs they hate, surrounded by peers who could care less, and get fired. People fall everyday. All in the name of playing it safe. One of the reasons why I chose entrepreneurship was I figured, why not shoot my shot.... and if I failed it would have been in the pursuit of something worthy of my intellect and talent. And if I won, well I will have won my freedom and a life of satisfaction of my choosing. How about you? Why did you choose entrepreneurship? #entrepreneurship #discipline #nextoppsocial #endurance #motivation #work #personaldevelopment #inspiration #growthmindset #success #talent #freedom #courage #failure #growth #entrepreneurshipisempowerment Continue reading

Skills. Activity knowledge. Academic pedigree. Even connections initially. All great advantages. However, give me the person with belief, unabashed enthusiasm, a heartbeat to help people, a good work ethic, and a love of learning..... it's a wrap!

So many of us are waiting for things to go back to normal. Waiting for things to feel familiar again. Waiting for the tide to change. Waiting. As entrepreneurs, we have to choose to grow through this period, or go through it. Find ways to thrive or survive. And know that as long as we have hope for the future, we will be empowered in the present. Continue reading

Posted by JuJuan Buford @JSBUFORD AUDIO VERSION OF ANNOUNCEMENT > Migration From GoSmallBiz to LS Business Plus Supplement Dear LegalShield & GoSmallBiz Members, LegalShield Corp very recently severed ties with GoSmallBiz, and introduced a new business services platform referred to as the Business Plus supplement. Now, if you’re like me, I admittedly felt some trepidation with the aforementioned decision. I was a very happy client of the SmallBiz relationship, and more specifically the GoSmallBiz platform has been instrumental, and an invaluable resource helping me to launch, advance, and grow my business endeavors, and I know many of you may be feeling the exact same way. My website, the client relationship manager, the provision of training courses, and the invaluable marketing, tax & accounting, IT, and business investment consultation services have been beyond beneficial. Coupled with the ability to request, curate, and produce business documents for every occasion, along with the host of other services provided by the GoSmallBiz platform. With that being said, there are plenty of reasons to be excited about this transition as well. #1. By LegalShield deciding to create a singular platform to provide access to these services, we no longer have to visit multiple platforms, remember multiple usernames and passwords, to manage our business affairs, saving time and mental exertion initially. And I believe we all can agree that time is money. #2. It is sign that LegalShield is committed to being increasingly more responsive to the small business and B2B ecosystem, continuing to invest capital and improve its service offerings, and empower entrepreneurs with the most up to date, cost effective, tools and resources to launch, grow, scale, and protect business interests. This makes LegalShield unique, in that while most business to business corporations have abandoned the small business market and entrepreneurs in favor of... Continue reading

At some point, you realize that more information is not what you need to turn the corner. But rather a plan of action (an operating system) that includes learning, combing through your ideas, mobilizing your thoughts, executing, and doing what others won't. For most (especially creatives), installing operating systems can be boring and arduous. The process isn't thrilling. But the results are! Continue reading

Posted by JuJuan Buford @JSBUFORD CLICK THE IMAGE OR THE FOLLOWING LINK TO LEARN MORE > https://bit.ly/JSBWEDNESDAYB2B... We Provide Big Business Resources for Small Business Dollars. Learn About Resources to Help You Grow, Scale, & Protect Your Business. About this Event We serve entrepreneurs who wish to grow and scale their businesses: significantly reducing the expense of conducting research, on-boarding and retaining quality employees, acquiring more clients, securing capital, protecting their intellectual property rights, managing growth, and making better tax, financial, and legal decisions. Are you an entrepreneur with burning desire, a business solutions provider, looking to level up in your business? Are you posting content; adopting time consuming, money gulping strategies, and not attracting the clients you want? Are you struggling with generating repeat business and customers? Would you like a proven strategy to increase the number of preferred customers you work with? Are you having difficulties finding good talent, on-boarding good talent, and retaining good talent? Are you putting off important decisions due legal matters like: DBA, LLC, S or C-Corp; having documents properly reviewed; understanding how to become loan ready or access capital; protecting your intellectual property rights, or concerns about protecting your business from lawsuits or audits? Are you a business development professional, insurance agent, or B2B entrepreneur having difficulty getting good traction with other entrepreneurs and business owners. Are you tired of only being as good (financially solvent) as your last sale? Small business owners have the same needs as large corporations, and are confronted by the same challenges: securing more clients, increasing profits, finding and retaining their best employees, making better financial decisions, and protecting their business interests. Unfortunately most small business owners "go at it alone", make Google decisions, and forego the professional assistance that is needed to compete and grow because of... Continue reading
