Businesswoman Latesha Isbell Howard advocates for economic equity for minority women-owned businesses

Businesswoman Latesha Isbell Howard advocates for economic equity for minority women-owned businesses

“The problems of racial injustice and economic injustice cannot be solved without a radical redistribution of political and economic power.”

– Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

In the business world rooted in racism and economic inequity, we can either talk about the problem or take action. Latesha Isbell Howard, a business management consultant and marketing manager for a Fortune 500 company, is all about action. With over 25 years in the business industry, she noticed a problem within her community with the lack of financial knowledge, access to capital, and entrepreneurship education, so she decided to launch Savvy Diva Enterprises.

“A lot of us were not taught about credit and personal finances,” said Howard. “Financial literacy and entrepreneurship aren’t taught in high school or college, and that’s why I offer these services.”

Her company specializes in business credit, funding solutions, education and resources for minority female entrepreneurs. She also provides additional resources that support personal credit optimization, helping clients to become lender ready.

Operating in the corporate world with her Master’s in Business Administration and a Bachelor’s in Finance, Howard has gained valuable expertise to help her clients to structure, fund, and operate their small businesses like Fortune 500 companies.

“I love what I do, but I am only making small ripples in the ocean. God says it’s time to go bigger!” said Howard. And this is why she has launched a huge initiative to serve 2,300 minority women-owned businesses annually. Savvy Diva Enterprises has developed an entrepreneurship academy, small business incubator, community development loan fund, real estate investing program, and youth financial literacy and entrepreneurship program.

“This is a call to action to every bank with CRA goals, every corporation or municipality with community and economic development goals, every philanthropist that wants to leave a legacy, and every government funding program that supports entrepreneurship or financial literacy. We’re also seeking partnerships with nonprofits whose mission aligns with ours,” said Howard. To learn more about how you can support this initiative, click here.

“Together we can change the lives of an underrepresented, underserved, and underutilized population,” said Howard. A study by McKinsey & Company states that “in a parity scenario, Black-owned businesses would generate $1.6 trillion more than they do today.” This point illustrates why economic equity is vitally important.

This trailblazing wife, mother, entrepreneur, and stage 3 breast cancer survivor lights up when she talks about teaching clients how to turn their passion into a plan and transform the plan into profits. “I love to see people win; helping these women level up in their business and finances is my life purpose,” said Howard.

It’s no secret that there are millions of people, and business owners especially, who put a lot of time, energy, money, and effort into growing their brands and businesses. 

Many businesses today face steady challenges of getting the brand visibility that they desire, while earning their customers’ trust, while also boosting sales and conversions.

The Urban Twist’s founder Brennen Jones has experienced this problem firsthand, which is why he’s launched YourTwistPR PR agency, and he wants to get these businesses’ story told by offering a writing and distribution service that will put brands on more than 100 news sites, television, radio and affiliates of NBC, Fox, and CBS. In addition to his own online magazine featuring them as well.

“With this new business initiative and offering, our mission is to help entrepreneurs and business owners of any size get their name out there in the press and benefit from that additional brand awareness and having their brands recognized,” Brennen explains.

“I receive hundreds of emails daily, where people are reaching out to us, who are trying to be seen and trying to be heard. We hope that by being able to provide this service we can help them in getting exposure and get their stories featured in the media. Which in turn should grow their credibility and businesses as whole.”

YourTwistPR requires only three simple processes to provide its clients with the visibility they need. First, the client will be required to either submit an article or let the YourTwistPR team write an article on their business.

When writing an article for its client, YourTwistPR will require only the website link containing all information about the client’s business, the main topic that they want the article to be about, and one to two quotes that best describe their business.

Once the client approves the article, YourTwistPR sends it to its wide network of media contacts.

“After we get your business and brand published to all of these media sites linking back to you and your business and brand, it now further establishes you as an authoritative figure in your field, which can help get you blue check verified on social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram,” Brennen further adds.

“We’ve had people come to us who were impersonated by someone else trying to damage their reputation. We help combat these issues before they happen or it even has the chance to do some real damage.

Female Veteran and Entrepreneur Releases eBook for Service Members Transitioning to Business Owners

blank

(Fayetteville, N.C.) The journey from military service member to small business owner isn’t an easy one. No one knows that better than ShaDonna “Mo” McPhaul. McPhaul spent 20 years in loyal service to the United States Air Force before she made the transition to small business owner. In her new eBook, It’s Not What You Know, It’s the Mo’ You Know, McPhaul opens up about the lessons she learned while transforming her career and launching two successful businesses.

During her time as an active-duty service member, McPhaul gained expertise in Public Affairs, Administrative Support, Knowledge Operations Management, Command & Control, Human Resources & Logistics Management and Religion & Resiliency Support. After leaving the military, she wanted to put her expertise to work and soon started two companies, Mo’s Heroes and The Mo You Know. Now she wants to make her advice and life lessons available to even more people through her new eBook, which will help small businesses gain additional target audience exposure and introduce new audiences to their businesses.

“Unless you’ve made the transition from military to civilian life, you don’t really understand the struggles that it entails,” explained McPhaul. “I’ve learned a lot through transforming my career and building two businesses from the ground up. I knew it would be helpful to share my own experiences with other veterans going through the same thing, or really anyone going through a big transition in life. I wanted to point out some blind spots that they may or may not be aware of. It seems like a missed opportunity to not share that advice with others.”
