These B2B partners support entrepreneurs across various facets of the business, including hiring, compliance, infrastructure development, cloud migration, fundraising, etc., allowing founders to focus on their core missions.

“At LegalZoom, we’re focused on giving entrepreneurs the tools and resources to turn their ideas into businesses and helping small business owners grow and succeed,” said Jeff Stibel, CEO of LegalZoom. “We are grateful to be named an Inc.

LegalZoom Keeps Legal Services Affordable and Accessible. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the cost of legal services for businesses increased by 6.5% from 2023 to 2024.

Supporting Business Growth Through Comprehensive Services. Recognizing that small businesses face a variety of challenges, especially in their first year, LegalZoom has expanded its offerings to provide a comprehensive range of tools beyond legal services. With over 60% of newly formed businesses struggling with revenue and operations in their first year, LegalZoom’s platform includes business management tools such as accounting and licenses, AI-powered document assistance, e-signatures, and partnerships with brands like Wix and NEXT Insurance, among others.

“Starting our business, All Better Co. was a leap of faith, and LegalZoom has been an incredible partner from the beginning,” said Merav Goldman, Co-Founder and CEO, All Better Co. “We needed an accessible and reliable solution to set up our LLC, and LegalZoom made the process seamless. Their continued support has allowed us to focus on what we do best – helping families thrive- while knowing our legal bases are covered. We’re grateful for their dedication to empowering small businesses like ours.” All Better Co. is reimagining everyday First Aid with better for you, better for the planet products. The company was founded in 2022 in Los Angeles by Merav and Stacy, two moms who met on the playground and shared a mutual desire for better, effective and safer products for their families.

“This is our definitive listing of vendors and suppliers who have demonstrated excellence in serving small- and midsize customers,” says Inc. Editor-in-Chief Mike Hofman. “As part of the vetting process, our team of editors, researchers and reporters gathered information on companies’ products and services, assessed their reputation as captured in online comments and forums, and collected customer testimonials to ensure that the sales pitch matches the actual client experience. In every case, we spoke to founders like you who were happy to attest to a vendor’s genuine commitment to a mutually beneficial business partnership. We’re happy to be the conduit for that positive word of mouth.”
