FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – An inclusive shopping event that highlights entrepreneurs with disabilities.

Published November 1, 2021 by L. Legendary

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

November 1, 2021

An inclusive online shopping event that highlights entrepreneurs with disabilities.

Las Vegas, NV – Laura Legendary, owner of Elegant Insights Braille Creations, has organized an all-day, online, accessible, virtual experience for seniors and consumers with disabilities called “Let’s Go Shopping.” On Friday, November 5th, and Saturday, November 6th, from 9 AM to 5 PM Pacific time, shoppers will be able to call or connect to the Zoom platform to browse and purchase holiday gifts.

Anyone who is uncertain about vaccination status, seniors, people with disabilities, and those in rural areas with limited bandwidth or lack of access to help from their children, in-home health care provider, or personal assistant may find navigating web sites to shop online difficult.

“People with print or cognitive disabilities who would normally have access to assistive technology through their workplace, or a care worker who they rely on to accomplish shopping tasks may now find themselves cut off, thanks to the need for social distancing,remote work, or who are unable to be vaccinated. As a result, they may find online shopping to be cognitively burdensome,” says Legendary. “My goal with the Let’s Go Shopping event was two-fold: Not only to give small businesses a boost, but to bring a virtual shopping mall to isolated or vulnerable customers,” says Legendary, who is blind. “Besides, there’s no worries about long lines, empty shelves, navigating crowded public spaces, or mask mandates.”

Attendees will access the live online mall using the Zoom Video Conferencing platform. Zoom has been a lifesaver for students and parents who need to connect with teachers and colleagues, or who work remotely. Zoom enables users to sign in using a desktop, laptop, smartphone app, or even their landline telephone.

All of the small business owners participating in the “Let’s Go Shopping” event have a disability, or is inspired by someone who does. Shoppers can tune in to a scheduled program lineup, featuring tech gadgets, food, fashion, accessories, handcrafted gifts, jewelry, and aids for daily living. “Live presentations and customer interaction makes the shopping experience fun and accessible for consumers of all abilities,” says Legendary.

Save the date! Let’s Go Shopping 5 brings new things for spring!

Published April 7, 2021 by L. Legendary

Back by popular demand, Let’s Go Shopping, the all-day, online, accessible, virtual mall crawl is back. And “by popular demand” is not an exaggeration, as more than a few inquiries about the future of the event prompted me to do some social media polling, and to my surprise, the demand was there.

This was surprising because upon the conclusion of the holiday Let’s Go Shopping event last year, I conveyed to both attendees and participating vendors that I felt the idea had run its course, that it was timely and needed during the pandemic quarantine and restricted travel periods, but that once vaccination rollout had begun, this type of event would be rendered obsolete. I couldn’t imagine why anyone would want to shop from home when the whole world was out there, waiting for us all to burst from our hidey holes, with wads of unspent cash gripped tightly in our fists, ready to shop, dine, drink, and travel the world. As it turns out, the early delays in getting those inoculations created a backlog that required some events, such as conventions, to continue to schedule virtual meetings. Further, with the tiered system of vaccinations, not everyone has yet received both doses, or for whatever reason may not be vaccinated at all, so there is still a significant group who wanted an opportunity to shop virtually.

I quickly inquired of my best vendors how they felt about presenting another event, and they were all enthusiastic. So, Let’s Go Shopping 5, focusing on fresh new things for Spring, will be held on Saturday, April 10, 2021, from 8AM Pacific Time to 5PM Pacific Time.

Ready for a little retail therapy? Let’s Go Shopping!

We invite you to join us for an all-day, online, accessible, virtual mall crawl like no other. Zoom in to our virtual shopping mall and discover small businesses offering everything from food to fashion, gadgets to gifts, beauty to subscription boxes, tech to treasures for Mother’s Day, birthdays, graduation, Father’s Day, and just for you!

Save the date!

When: Saturday, April 10, 2021, from 8AM Pacific Time to 5PM Pacific Time.
Where: Our Zoom virtual mall.

Am I your next new hire?

Published February 13, 2021 by L. Legendary

Okay, readers, fans, and friends, this is one of those times when I must tap my network. I’m counting on you to spread the word. I need your help.

In case you have just stumbled upon this blog, and have no idea who I am, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Laura. I am many things, chief among them, a speaker, author, advocate, and business owner. I live near Las Vegas, Nevada.

I’m writing this post in an effort to raise my visibility for a new vocational pursuit. I am already known for my company, Elegant Insights, an enterprise now in its tenth year. I’m so proud of what I’ve accomplished through thick and thin over the past decade, and I plan to continue the effort. However, it’s time to take on additional challenges to keep my skills sharp and continue to grow professionally. Ten years is a long time to be focused on one thing. It’s time I reach out to my huge network to explore what else is out there.

I cannot say with conviction what I’m looking for. Here’s my resume in two sentences: For the past ten years, I’ve been running my own business. For the prior ten years, I ran my own business. Unpacking all that two decades of self-employment have encompassed would make my CV a long read.

Here’s how I think I could provide value to any organization: My strengths are heavily weighted to the soft skills. I am highly organized, thorough, meticulous, and professional. As they used to say on old-school job applications, I have excellent oral and written communication skills. I am an articulate, polished speaker and a great sales person. I can sell anything. I have hosted large, multi-day events and have worked as an educator and mentor.

Are you looking for a product advocate? A company spokes person? An outreach coordinator? A community manager? A trainer? An event organizer? These are the types of jobs for which I am well suited. I believe in servant leadership and I am laser-focused on customer service.

I have enjoyed an extensive history of volunteering, so I will not take on any more of that type of work. Nor am I looking for something full time, necessarily. I’m flexible. I intend to continue to run Elegant Insights, but working two jobs is not a problem. Pandemic life has left me feeling as though my business presence has shrunk to the point of near invisibility, and I need to augment my skills and rejoin the professional world.

If you are already familiar with my body of work, and you think I would make a valuable and meaningful contribution to your enterprise, then let’s chat. If you believe one of your colleagues or contacts could make good use of my skills, then please refer me. If, at last, our world is on the way to reopening, I want to be in on the action.

Thank you in advance for helping to spread the word, and I’m open to suggestions as to how to further my efforts. Yes, I can hit up a job board, but I’m rolling the dice on a more personal connection. Taking chances is what we do here in Las Vegas, anyway, right?

You can contact me here.

Let the networking begin!

The Let’s Go Shopping holiday gift event official press release

Published November 4, 2020 by L. Legendary

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Discover an inclusive, online, accessible, virtual shopping mall that connects small businesses with the customers who need them.

Henderson, NV – Laura Legendary, owner of Elegant Insights Braille Creations, and founder of Let’s Go Shopping Virtual Events, has organized a two-day, online accessible experience for seniors and consumers with disabilities called “Let’s Go Shopping!” On November 10 and 11, 2020 from 8 AM PT to 5 PM PT, shoppers will be able to call or connect to the Zoom platform to shop for holiday gifts.

People with disabilities, seniors, and those in rural areas with limited bandwidth or lack of access to help from their family, in-home health care provider, or personal assistant may find navigating web sites to go shopping online difficult. “People with print or cognitive disabilities who would normally have access to assistive technology through their workplace, or a care worker on whom they rely to accomplish shopping tasks may now find themselves isolated, due to the need to protect themselves, or a vulnerable loved one, from Covid-19.

“This will be the fourth Let’s Go Shopping event,” says Legendary, who is blind. “Each has been more successful than the previous, as shoppers find new businesses to explore, both entrepreneurs and consumers benefit.”

Attendees will access the live online mall using the Zoom Video Conferencing platform. Zoom has been a lifesaver for students and parents who need to connect with teachers and colleagues. Zoom enables users to sign in using a desktop, laptop, smartphone app, or even their landline telephone.

Many of the participating vendors also have a disability, or have a close association with someone who does. Vendors are required to make the shopping experience as easy and as frictionless as possible, so they provide multiple ways for attendees to place orders. There are 18 participating vendors, offering everything from artisan crafted jewelry to fashion, food, gadgets and gizmos, pet and guide dog products, personalized gifts, beauty and skin care, home fragrance and decor, craft kits, leather goods, and technology.

“With so many people reluctant to shop in busy malls and crowded public spaces, the Let’s Go Shopping event is a fun way to do a mall crawl from the comfort of your couch,” says Legendary. “Just sit back, relax, and shop till you drop.”

Laura Legendary is owner of Elegant Insights Braille Creations, a distinctive, handcrafted collection of jewelry and accessories, made in the USA, and embossed in braille. Founded in 2011, Elegant Insights jewelry is meaningful, unusual, accessible, and inclusive. We bring out the beauty of braille.
