The Small Business Voice was started by Justin Duncan to bring the stories of local business owners and entrepeneurs to our listeners. Jeanette was the co-host and now owns the show as Justin stepped away to finish a Novel he is working on. Jeanette will continue diving deep into the struggles and successes of being a small business owner. Get to know who you are doing business with and get insight into the self-employed world in the Central Valley.

A woman with long, blonde hair is lounging on a pink velvet couch outdoors at night. She is smiling, resting her head on her left hand, and wearing a black dress with leggings. The background shows a dark sky, some trees, and a body of water with city lights reflecting on it.

Jeanette is a successful local Business Owner, Motivational Speaker, MC for local events, and the Host of the Small Business Voice. Having been self-employed the majority of her life while raising seven children, she is passionate about supporting and promoting small businesses. More and more businesses are closing as people shop online or at the big box stores for convenience and then complain when the cute little restaurant or boutique closes its doors. Every show brings insight into our local community. Know of someone that would be a great guest?
