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?

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!
After a couple moments of adjusting the overalls, it won't even be close.

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.

A VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT FOR GOSMALLBIZ MEMBERS & B2B PROFESSIONALS!!!
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 servicing wealthier, highly capitalized, larger companies; LegalShield has doubled down on its commitment to empowering entrepreneurs and small business owners.
#3. I firmly believe after having the opportunity to learn more about the new CRM and website platform, coupled with the retention of many of the features offered by GoSmallBiz, we all have reason to be as excited about the LegalShield Business Plus supplement services.
A Couple Questions That Need Answering
What services are provided by LegalShield’s business plus services program?
I encourage you to take a moment to peruse the following attachment - Business Plan Supplement. Also, visit https://businessplus.legalshield.com/ and “Sign In” using the same username and password you utilize when logging into accounts.legalshield.com. If you have additional questions or difficulties logging in, please contact me immediately.
Also, please do read the following article for additional insights regarding how the Business Plus Supplement stacks up against GoSmallBiz. https://www.legalshield.com/blog/tracking-website-analytics-grow-your-business
Is GoSmallBiz still available to us independently? Yes!
Contact GoSmallBiz at 866.467.6249 and you will be provided with access again for continued discounted rate of $14.95.
Contact LegalShield Client Services at 800.654.7757, and inform them that you’d like to cancel the business plus supplement, reducing your membership premium by $14.95.
Lastly, in the spirit of full transparency listen to the audio to learn how I’m choosing to manage my business affairs in relation to the migration from GoSmallBiz to the LegalShield Business Plus supplement. Audio statement > Migration From GoSmallBiz to LS Business Plus Supplement
