About INSPIREsmall.biz - INSPIREsmall.biz

Empowering Small Business Excellence

INSPIREsmall.biz is the creation of two passionate entrepreneurs, Ryan and Carly Henry of Indianapolis, Indiana.

We are a community-driven initiative dedicated to supporting, connecting, and inspiring small business owners and professionals on their journey to success.

Our Story

INSPIREsmall.biz began as Open In Indiana, with local networking groups and a regional business directory.

Through the pandemic, we’ve evolved into an online resource hub for entrepreneurs and small business owners in all 50 states.

In mid-2021, we officially changed the name to INSPIREsmall.biz, to better reflect our mission of helping small businesses get started and succeed.
