Social network for professionals, Bizfluence launches next funding round

Updated: Jun 18, 2022



Excellent article about Bizfluence from TyNMagazine with a screenshot of the founding story above. I'm proud to back Bizfluence and really impressed with what the founders Jacob and Joel are doing! LinkedIn canceled Joel Wolh for a Bill Gates joke during Covid. Deplatforming / suspensions on LinkedIn are arbitrary and often flagged wrong by their AI. During Covid, in an effort to suppress possible misinformation, LinkedIn and many other social media platforms overreached significantly, changed the rules rapidly, and failed to communicate proactively with users.


LinkedIn needs to do better, and we need additional options that enable people across the world to network and conduct business. That’s why Bizfluence was born and why users have been signing up from across the world to network and conduct business. The app looks to scale and compete with LinkedIn for key business user segments. While not political, Bizfluence also aims to avoid deplatforming by focusing just on business--leave the politics to Twitter




We need leaders like Joel. I've met many impressive entrepreneurs throughout my life. Joel's force of will matches that of 3 founders / mentors I worked for and grew amazing companies. You can contribute to Bizfluence community's growth on StartEngineLA here.
