“Our goal at LegalZoom is to support existing business owners as well as the next generation of entrepreneurs,” said Kathy Tsitovich, Chief Partnerships Officer, LegalZoom. “Having a simple way to build a beautiful website is almost universal for small business owners, and our integration with Wix in the U.S. provides a seamless way for our users to form their business and build their online presence. As a champion for small businesses, we are thrilled to see how our integration with Wix empowers entrepreneurs and supports their ongoing growth.”
The collaboration will soon enable existing and future entrepreneurs interacting on the Wix or LegalZoom platforms to benefit from customized recommendations and solutions tailored to their needs at different stages in their formation and management cycle. Businesses coming to LegalZoom in their formative stage will be able to seamlessly start their business and create an online presence. The process begins with a business categorization mechanism within the platform identifying the registered business users’ intent, which allows them to ultimately have a ready-made site created by Wix to serve their business needs. They will have access to Wix’s robust product offering including advanced customization capabilities, enterprise-grade performance, security and a reliable infrastructure as well as commerce and business solutions, advanced SEO and marketing tools. For example, they will be able to establish their own online store using Wix Stores and allow their customers to book services online using Wix Bookings. Wix users will be offered relevant LegalZoom services including new business formation, registered agent services, and trademark registration services, based on their specific needs.
