"Some problems can be solved much better collectively and together. We’re willing to invest because it’s going to serve us all for generations to come.”
Last month we brought together some of Colorado's small business leaders to discuss the tools, policies, and resources available to entrepreneurs in the state and beyond.
Thank you Jim Vernon, SCORE Mentors, Hunter Nelson, MSWSmall Business Majority, and Debra Brown, Good Business Colorado for lending your expertise and insights on this important topic.
As we wrap up National Small Business Week, I want to take a moment to celebrate the backbone of our platform at uShip and the broader economy — small business owners.
At uShip, we are proud to connect businesses and individuals with independent carriers who are themselves small business owners. This partnership is vital as it not only fosters a competitive environment, ensuring that our customers receive the best rates possible, but it also supports the growth and sustainability of small businesses across the country.
Every time you choose uShip, you're directly fueling the growth of small businesses. It’s more than just a transaction; it’s a commitment to fairness and opportunity that really embodies the spirit of this week.
So, as we reflect on the importance of small businesses, remember that choosing uShip means more than just securing a shipping service. It means supporting hardworking small business owners and contributing to a thriving, diverse marketplace that enriches our community and economy.
Thank you to all the small business owners and independent carriers who make uShip what it is today. Here’s to your continued success! 🙌

Hi Steven,
Thank you for sharing this valuable advice with small business owners. As an experienced entrepreneur myself, I couldn't agree more with your recommendation. Starting a business can be overwhelming, but focusing on this key aspect can make a world of difference.
In my experience, one of the most crucial things every entrepreneur should remember is to always prioritize their target audience. Understanding their needs, pain points, and desires will not only help shape your products or services but also guide your marketing efforts. By truly knowing and connecting with your customers, you can better position yourself in the market and tailor your messaging to resonate with them.
Additionally, I've found that building strong relationships and fostering customer loyalty are equally important. In today's competitive landscape, it's not just about selling products; it's about creating meaningful connections and providing exceptional customer experiences. By going above and beyond for your customers, you can turn them into brand advocates who will not only keep coming back but also recommend your business to others.
