What is LBC’s SoShop!

LBC’s SoShop! is basically a program with plenty of features but with a common goal, and that is to help entrepreneurs move and expand their online business further.

It is designed for ‘Social Sellers’ who are looking for a one-stop-shop solution to their online business, from payment to pick-up to delivery. That doesn’t stop there though, as SoShop! members will also gain access to a community where they can receive tips, updates, and promotions, as well as access to an exclusive marketplace for their business.
