She Boss Talk always has a lot in store for small businesses during Black History Month. One of the ways She Boss Talk is celebrating Black History Month in 2022 is by creating a Black Business Shopping Guide. Our Black Business Guide aims to promote 25 Black-owned businesses to our massive network for Black History Month (February) and Black Business Month (August).
The COVID-19 pandemic is still raging on and has hit Black businesses really hard. As a matter of fact, Black businesses are among the hardest hit. According to Forbes, COVID-19 has disproportionately affected small Black-owned businesses in terms of financial impact.
In addition to that, The Federal Reserve Bank of New York said that 58% of Black-owned businesses were on the verge of financial distress even before COVID-19.
Therefore we wanted to help spotlight Black Businesses so they can get the exposure they need. Here’s what you need to know about our Black Business Shopping Guide.
Who Can Apply?
You’ll be the perfect applicant for our shopping guide if you’re:
- Black-owned and operated (at least 90% majority ownership)
- Able to provide a direct link to the featured product where interested buyers can purchase it (either via a website, social media, or other retail platform)
- Able to ship products within the US
Why You Should Sign Up For the Black Business Shopping Guide
If you’re a Black Business owner, the Black Business Shopping Guide can increase your:
- Sales
- Leads
- Brand Awareness
- Website Traffic
Your business deserves to be seen and sometimes that means investing in its promotion. Consider this as part of your marketing efforts. We are confident that you could see a return on your investment.
We will market the shopping guide to our massive network to ensure your business is in front of more people.
