We Connect Government and Corporate Agencies with Small Businesses | Business Inclusion Advocate | Program and Project Management | Marketing Executive | Pianist
Happy Black History Month to all the Black business owners working hard to be successful! As we honor Black History Month, it's vital to acknowledge that celebrating Black excellence and supporting Black-owned businesses is our year-round commitment. One of the most impactful ways we Bold Growth Agency uplift these businesses is by helping them connect with government and corporate contract opportunities. This support not only empowers entrepreneurs but also strengthens our communities and economy as a whole. The Importance of Accessing Opportunities Black-owned businesses often face unique challenges, including limited access to contracts and resources that can help them grow. By actively working to connect these businesses with government and corporate opportunities, we help bridge the gap and foster a more equitable business landscape. Access to contracts not only provides financial stability but also enhances the visibility and credibility of these businesses within their industries. Bold Growth Agency Year-Round Commitment Supporting Black businesses through contract opportunities is not just a one month initiative; it’s an ongoing effort that requires dedication and collaboration throughout the year. As we celebrate Black History Month, let us also commit to uplifting Black businesses every day. #blackbusiness #blackbusinessmonth #blackwomeninbusiness #blackowned

PIE doesn’t just honor Black History Month. We put our money where our mouths are. This isn’t a post to brag, but to show just how easy it is to really be inclusive. - Our preferred providers of pies are Black-owned, local businesses - We celebrate Black excellence by seeking melanated speakers and educators FIRST … and then **paying them** for their efforts - PIE has directed dozens of hours of FREE professional speaking coaching to rising melanated experts who want to polish their message before presenting - We maintain connections to organizations like state Black Chambers of Commerce, where we collaborate with leaders by providing time and resources to improve access to government work for Black-owned businesses PIE is a community in which historically excluded groups are not only celebrated, but CENTERED. We say this because our community IS BETTER for choosing to be inclusive. We still have opportunities to improve, and we are always open to critique and improving our practice. We also believe that the best voices, products, and information comes from fairly compensated, historically excluded speakers who are put at the front of the line. We’re tired of hearing from folks who have always been in charge, because leading a broken system doesn’t mean you know what you’re doing. It’s our honor to participate in Black History Month by focusing on Black providers every day of the year. Your business could do it, too.

February is Black History Month in the United States. An opportunity to observe, remember and celebrate the events, milestones, and achievements in the lives of Black Americans and the nation. This year’s observance has added significance in the U.S. amid the ongoing struggle for social justice and equity. It is imperative that we continue to listen and learn so we can lead better together. The diversity gap still exists in 2023 especially in leadership roles, but what do we gain from diversity? More diversity means more breadth and depth of ideas and experience and research repeatedly shows that businesses that make diversity a priority outperform their peers. The real experience of DEI looks less like buzzwords and more like constant cycles of iteration, action, and assessment to see if our work is having the impact we intend, and then doing it all over again to keep change coming. It's not as sexy as a viral catchphrase, but that's how we get shit done. That's what impact really looks like. This Black History Month make that DEI strategy count, start with your own culture of inclusion, and listen to the voices of your employees. Remember that Black History Month is not a ✅ the box exercise or the one☝🏾time to speak to the Black community, but rather should be the beginning of the journey to amplify, celebrate, honor, connect, and advocate for the Black community.

Happy Black History Month! As a Black-owned company, we know that every month is Black History Month, but we like to go all out in February. As we celebrate Black History Month, let’s dive into a crucial aspect of economic empowerment: Generational Wealth. Generational Wealth is not just about financial prosperity; it’s a testament to resilience, vision, and the enduring legacy of Black communities. During February, let’s leverage this month of reflection to understand, appreciate, and amplify the importance of building and preserving wealth across generations. What is Generational Wealth? From a textbook standpoint, it’s the accumulation of assets, resources, and financial stability passed down from generation to generation. For most of us, it is building and amassing assets to pass on to our children and family, and it can take the form of real estate, businesses, stocks, cash, etc. Let’s use this month not only to celebrate past achievements but also to actively engage in conversations that propel us toward a future of economic empowerment and financial well-being.

Celebrating Black History Month To all the phenomenal black business owners, entrepreneurs, and creatives who grace our communities with their talent and tenacity: This month, as we honor the legacy and achievements of black individuals throughout history, let's also turn a reflective eye towards our own collective journey. The road to success is paved with the support and unity we offer each other. #growwithcarl Remember, my progress is not your regress. We must dismantle the myths that have been instilled in us—a mentality that has been a tool of oppression for far too long. We have been taught to see each other as competition rather than allies, influenced by the age-old strategy of divide and conquer. But history has shown us that we are strongest when we stand together. Let's reject the "one pie theory," which falsely claims that opportunity is scarce and that one person's gain is another's loss. There is not just one pie, my friends, but an abundance of pies, enough to share and multiply. As we forge ahead, let's commit to celebrating each other's wins and providing a platform for growth. Let's network, collaborate, and invest in one another. Every retweet, every referral, every word of encouragement builds a community that thrives together. This Black History Month, let's pledge to support and uplift each other, not just in words but in action. Together, we can break barriers, build empires, and inspire the next generation of black excellence. #BlackHistoryMonth #SupportBlackBusiness #Unity #CommunityGrowth #BlackExcellence #TogetherWeRise #growwithcarl #WeGrowTogether
