content company focusing on small business and entrepreneurship. A nationally
known speaker and authority on entrepreneurship, Lesonsky has been covering
America's entrepreneurs for more than 30 years.
Lesonsky
is a nationally-known speaker, and frequent media guest. She has appeared on
the Today Show, Good Morning America, CNN, Fox Business News, The Martha
Stewart Show, and Oprah, and can regularly be seen on MSNBC's Your Business.
Lesonsky discusses how business
ownership is taking hold among all demographics. Particularly active right now
are Gen Y (Millennials) and the over 50 set.
She relayed that women
have been on the leading edge of business startups since the early 1990s and technology
has changed how we do business, making it easier to start, but adding to
information overload.
She went over mobile
technology, as one of the newest-and most important- small business trends and
told us that all businesses, no matter how small, or how local needs to have a
website.
She focused on how social
media has significantly shifted the marketing landscape, citing Pinterest as an
example, which is currently having a big impact for retailers, and some service
providers.
