Bizzie Besties (aka Business Besties)
Bizzie Bestie Definition: A Bizzie Bestie is a person or business that shares similar values, integrity, with a commitment to making the other person or business shine. The bizzie bestie is connected professionally, but communicates and collaborates openly at the soul level. I trust these people with my dreams, fears, and business intel. It’s spiritual, man. I don’t know what I’d do without these folks!
Shante' Davis
Social Missions Officer and Media Assistant
Connecting with Shante' was mere happenstance. My cousin sent me an Instagram Reel in September, 2022. I instantly was won over by her humor and style. She reached out after I shared one of her videos.
Soon, I learned of her amazing design and project management acumen. Shante came on board with Les Go Social, initially as a virtual assistant, with her whole heart and family in tow. She has joined the team for newest division of Les Go Social, Elbert Williams Voting Corner as well as daily social media design and support. In fact, I now consider her, her husband, and their three boys as my own cousins!

Katie Curtis
Inspired Videography Marketer
Katie bought herself her first digital camera at age 12. The device took 1.1 megapixel photos (think, modern day phones take 12 megapixel photos) and the video didn’t even capture sound. But she used it and she photographed and filmed everything.
I believe that everyone and every THING has a story. Katie has the gift of sharing these stories through the visual mediums of photo and videography. She’s worked freelance for 6 years after studying the arts in college and her favorite projects to create are warm, real, inspiring and quirky.
Something we’ve worked on together : Socialites videos
