Fashion-Based SMBs Get New Marketplace Option | PYMNTS.com
The apparel market is a rapidly changing place, a fact underlined by Amazon 's rapidly growing share of the market.
That's because Amazon isn't an ideal selling environment for many small- to medium-sized businesses ( SMBs ) as these businesses are not really big enough to stand out. What smaller boutiques need is an online marketplace built for their needs, which is what Jane was created to offer them.

Our job is to create for them a space to do what they do best, which is to bring really great products to market. We're going to make sure that they have access to as many customers as they can, so they can do what they do well, which is to curate products."
Biden reopens ACA enrollment for three months in opening bid to extend health coverage - The
The directive, part of a series of executive actions the president is taking during his first days in office, is a down payment on his pledge to make health care more accessible and affordable and a sign of his determination to rehabilitate the landmark law after four years of Republican battering. Those goals have taken on more urgency as 25 million people have been infected with the coronavirus and millions of others have lost jobs.

Marketplace functions on an algorithm, so the more you key in related terms, the more results for those terms will show in your feed. If you're after a mid-century-style chair, for example, McBride suggests starting with "mid-century chair," then trying a series of "chair" followed by specific designers.

A third group of about six million could buy ACA marketplace coverage but are ineligible for financial assistance because of their income or the price of the premium.

Many readers of this column are business owners, and many of them have a need from time to time to hire a lawyer to draft a contract for them. These contracts might include, for example, a contract between your company and its employees or independent contractors; an asset or stock purchase agreement, a nondisclosure agreement or an LLC operating agreement.
The problem that business owners find with many of these contracts is that they are written not in plain English but rather in legalese or, worse yet, in taxese.
