How Do Black Businesses/Entrepreneurs Break the Mass Media's Advertising Hold on Black Dollars?

Posted by Darlene on April 26, 2009 at 4:13am

We have a Black man in the White House; we have millions of Black businesses and entrepreneurs in this country. So why do we continue to spend our money with other businesses? 95% of the $900+ Billion that Black people earn each year goes right out of our communities and making other people rich. We as a people are richer than the combination of numerous countries, but yet as a people we do not exert the economic power that we possess.I am asking every Black person to reevaluate how they spend their money. Have we been so brain washed by the mass media advertising that we have to buy those rims, designer jewelry, purses and shoes? Ever wonder why McDonald's and BK just to name a few, have commercials geared specifically towards our youth? Personally I am offended by most of them. Did you know that major corporations spend millions on researching how Blacks spend their money so they can produce even more advertising targeted towards us? If everyone else thinks our money is so important, then maybe how we spend our money could really make a difference.Marcus Garvey, Malcolm X and even Dr. Martin Luther King., Jr. all spoke on these same issues of our people manufacturing and distributing our own products. What if spending an extra dollar or two to support a Black business meant more jobs in your community, or more taxes being paid that would help build better schools and other improvements? Wouldn't it be nice if our youth saw thriving Black businesses all around them and they would want to become a successful entrepreneur instead of a gang banger, thief, drug dealer, etc.?We’ve been hoodwinked, bamboozled, lead astray as Brother Malcolm said many years ago. We have to get out of the notion that to be accepted we have to buy from everybody else. Our community doesn’t own Wal-Mart, Macy’s or JC Penney’s, but our money is going to them and thousands of other stores every single day.Here’s an example I heard used a few weeks ago. Japan was defeated, military destroyed, and surrendered after WWII. Afterwards they focused on their home front. Re-building their communities, producing products and services and buying from each other. Similar story around the same time for the Jewish population who came to the U.S. No one would give them a job, so they produced their own products and services and bought exclusively from each other. They only employed other Jewish people. Look how much they accomplished in just a few generations. Is this racist? No, the only way to get their communities thriving was producing items and selling within their own community. Look at all of the other cultures that do the same and prospered.So my mission that I started on about a year ago was to find Black Businesses and Entrepreneurs and find Black Consumers to buy from them (or at least see if what they are looking to buy is available at these businesses before they make their purchases elsewhere.) I drive right by Wal-Mart or Walgreens to get aspirin from a Black owned pharmacy. We use a Black computer analyst for our business IT needs. I just had a Black, independent mechanic change the brakes on my car. My dentist is Black. I buy my hair care and body/bath products directly from the Black manufacturers at www.buyblacktoday.com/TeamDollar. Am I racist? No, I know my Black dollars are benefiting Black businesses inside and outside of my community. And you know what? It makes me feel absolutely wonderful to support them. If you are looking for a Black Business Network with members from all over the country, who support each other by also finding customers for the other members, visit www.BlackBusinessNetwork.com/TeamDollar.

Can I Get a Witness?

Posted by Joneen Horton on April 26, 2009 at 4:00am

To be a witness for Jesus is a great privilege and responsibility. Witnessing is not simply quoting scriptures to people, or speaking in “Christianese”. Being a witness for Jesus is being you. There are people that only you can reach. As you grow in relationship with God and better understand who you are in Him, He will direct you on how to witness to everyone you come in contact with. Whether you are a corporate attorney or a homemaker your life is a witness to everyone you come in contact with. I once read a quote that says:“Be careful how you live your life you may be the only Bible people read, the only Jesus they will ever meet.”Understand that it is not in your power that you witness for Him, but by the power given to you by the Holy Spirit who dwells in you. Take time to meditate Acts 1:8 and let God reveal to you how to walk it out in your daily life.Can you give us three ways you witness for Christ each day?You can read and comment on more posts here: My Life as a Divine Image.

REPARATIONS FOR THE ABSOLUTE WORST CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY

Posted by D.R.U.M. on April 25, 2009 at 2:39pm

The discussion of reparations paid for the crimes of slavery is not anything new. The demands have been made by many, but only Mr. Silis Muhammad of AFRE (All For Reparations and Emancipation) has moved this issue far up the ladder and across to key offices around the world. We, Afro-descendants, of those beloved ancestors are collectively without human rights. Reparations is paid from one nation to another. In order for us to have reparations, we must come together as a nation and work together for the achievement of human rights. Then we move onto reparations.We must not let another generation go by without them possessing human rights. Say out loud and teach your children to say: I AM HUMAN!!

TRACEY AMBROSE W.R.A.P…. NO LONGER UNDER THE RADAR SCREENIf you are Tracey Ambrose’ colleague you know she has her MBA. If you are her customer you yearned to keep her crochet line a secret just a little longer.However, it is newsworthy that a wife, mother of two and businesswoman has found the time to receive her MBA degree and master the art of Hook and Yarn.A fashion editor obsessed with finding the up and coming urban queen of the contemporary world of crochet will discover Tracey Ambrose W.R.A.P. is no longer under the radar screen.The California native has turned her hobby into a fashion passion. Her designs of contemporary accessories are consistently strutted on urban runways. It’s not enough that the TRACEY AMBROSE W.R.A.P. line of crocheted hats, bags and scarves aren’t your grandmothers’; her items include crocheted leg warmers, wraps offering a layered look, belts and beanies in vibrant colors.From the runway to the market: Darla’s Boutique of Lancaster, California is one of several independent shops offering the exquisite crochet line to it’s’ clientele. Sales generated from both www.tsawraps.com and www.darlascloset.com have shown great potential for more national sales.“I feel so blessed to be a vessel for this vision of crochet design” said Tracey. “Each of our journeys starts with that first small step and I am so looking forward to growing my business as did Lily Chin. Of course she has been in the business for twenty five years and has even written books. It gives me something to look forward to,” she laughs.

The High Pay Off Task

Posted by Onyx Six on April 24, 2009 at 8:33pm

Time management skills are vital for the small business owner. The need to manage your time is not a new concept. However, many neglect to prioritize their tasks. Every single day you must have a list of things you will accomplish. From that list you need to identify "the high payoff task".The high payoff task is the project that is in direct alignment with your goals and dreams. Many people consider the high payoff task to be that which will bring them money. Do not fall into this trap. The high payoff task will deliver something of true value to you, something more important than instant monetary gratification. When you complete that task it will have either moved you to the next level, or opened the doorway to the staircase that will take you there. It places you in a position to grow.Unfortunately, it is often hard to distinguish what the high payoff task for the day will be. We often have a list of things that we want to do, don't want to do or should have done all rolled into one. The key is to decipher from that list which project will bring you both joy and growth. The beauty of it is this, there is not a list of steps you have to follow to determine the high payoff task. Nor is there a key ingredient to creating one. It is simply a matter of getting in touch with your feelings and emotions. When you're engaging in your high payoff task you will know it because you will feel on fire. Every step and every decision will flow with ease.Sometimes we can identify the high payoff task before we even begin. If you read an item on your list and you become excited and feel good at the prospect of completing that task then you have identified your high pay off task. Other times we don't identify the high payoff task until we're knee deep in it. You may say things to yourself like "wow this is easier than I thought it would be" or "I feel like I'm actually making progress" and you will take pleasure in completing this task.Yet, what happens most often is that you find the high payoff task outside of the list. It may be as simple as an unexpected phone call, email or a chance meeting. It appears in the little things that make you say, "that just made my day"! This experience energizes and refuels you and this is what the high payoff task does. When something keeps you motivated and actively moving towards your goal or ignites you inner desires and your passion for life, you've found your high payoff task.Keep your eyes open because it may be in disguise, but it will always bring you happiness.Lyndsey Shaffer is the co- founder of the Onyx Six - Women of Color Business Network www.onyxsix.com.

Are you soaring as high as your potential will take you?

Posted by Monique Caradine on April 24, 2009 at 8:24pm

Hello Platinum Woman Business Leaders!If you're in a hurry, you can listen to this quick 6 minute audio message:Recently, while I was on a beautiful vacation with my family on the island of Puerto Rico, we had the chance to see the AIR SHOW. We were lucky to catch it because it was the first time in over 25 years that Puerto Rico has hosted the show!The Thunderbirds were there and what a thrill it was to watch them do their thing! This elite group of highly-trained fighter pilots did some absolutely *AMAZING* stunts...all kinds of flips, turns, cool formations and more! It was awesome.As I watched the planes soar through the air I couldn't help but think about the metaphor for life and business. Those pilots, because they believed enough in themselves (and of course had lots of intense training and support), flew those planes with fearlessness, boldness and agility. Because of their courage, vision and teamwork they did things that most people could never even dream of!So many questions went through my head as I watched this incredible show, such as:- How high do we allow ourselves to soar in life and business?- How often do we test are agility, strength and endurance to do things in life and business that we never thought possible?- How fearless are we *really* when it comes to achieving the kind of success that sets us apart from the competition and lets us enjoy the life of our dreams?- If you were presented with an awesome opportunity that challenged you or required you to take some risks, would you take it? Or would you draw back in fear, opting instead for the safety and security of your comfort zone?We might not all have the will or desire to fly with the Thunderbirds, but the truth is, we all have the potential to achieve the impossible! If we take calculated risks, invest in ourselves (and our dreams) and step out of our comfort zones we can enjoy a level of success and fulfillment that is far beyond our current experience. In other words, life can be limitless!ON A PERSONAL NOTE...I've been having fun learning and achieving lot's of new things lately. I'm taking risks and really exploring new opportunities and as a result, I'm working less, making more and feeling much more fulfilled in my life and business. I want to empower other women business leaders to do the same.That's why I've designed the Publicity POWER Platinum Inner Circle Program. This is more than just a program, it is an experience that will take your business and life to new heights!You can learn a bit more by listening to this 6 minute message:So, if you or someone you know is a business woman with the potential to achieve great things and more importantly has a desire to reach more people with your message, story or expertise, then join me and 9 other dynamic women for the Publicity Power Platinum Inner Circle!In the meantime, know that you deserve all the success the universe is just waiting to lavish upon you! Keep thinking BIG and here's to your Publicity POWER!Monique Caradine~ The Publicity POWER Pro ~Momentum Media Group20200 Governors HwySuite 202Olympia Fields, IL60461US

DREAM BIG FOR PERSONAL GROWTH

- DREAM BIG FOR PERSONAL GROWTH -Written by Lyndsey ShafferDream big. Set your goals so high that you have no idea how to achieve them. It is only then that you will grow. You will be forced to learn new skills, build new relationships and explore new thoughts. When you set easily achievable goals you can usually rely on the knowledge you already have to reach them. Setting easily achievable goals keeps you in a state of stagnation. It is only through continual personal growth that we can reach our true purpose.How do I achieve my dream if I don't know how?Click here http://www.onyxsix.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=87:dream-big-for-personal-growth&catid=26:work-a-life&Itemid=13 to read more.- SIGN UP FOR THE ONYX SIX NEWSLETTER -Sign up for our free newsletter to receive information on upcoming events, business advice and special offers from Onyx Six click here http://oi.vresp.com/?fid=ef70831112 to opt in.
