Visual Storytelling: Turning Moments Into Customers Without Saying a Word

There’s a reason people slow down at street murals, skim less when there’s a photo involved, and pause longer on posts with strong design. You live in a world shaped by visuals—moving, still, branded, and raw. For small business owners trying to cut through the noise, mastering the art of visual storytelling isn’t just a nice touch; it’s oxygen. It builds trust faster than a slogan and lingers longer than a clever ad ever could. Show, Don’t Just Tell When you’re running a small business, there’s often

What Reading, PA SBOs Should Know Now Regarding The CTA, BOI and FinCEN

The Corporate Transparency Act may require certain U.S. companies to disclose beneficial ownership information to FinCEN to combat financial crimes. While a Texas federal district court’s preliminary injunction puts this requirement on hold, many experts expect that to be overturned. In that event, failure to file could lead to fines of $500 per day, up to a maximum of $10,000, and possible criminal penalties. However, filing your Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) report will help you avoid fines
