Black Owned Business Booming with Business Plans Backing Them Up

Black Owned Business Booming with Business Plans Backing Them Up

According to Michigan Black Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Ken Harris, African-American businesses are growing at a rate three times the national average.

Harris substantiates the reason for this tremendous growth is partly that many younger adults are choosing to turn their passions of an idea into a business that will sustain them and their families.

"And, so entrepreneurship is extremely attractive," said  Ken Harris. "That's why we have a Chamber of Commerce to really nurture and develop young entrepreneurs; to put the types of resources in place that will allow them to benefit, to build their businesses more than just a one-employee business. But, more importantly, to compete globally."

This proves that anyone who has an idea and is truly passionate about it can bring it to life. With a professional attitude, tenacity and a bold persona, anyone can create a lifestyle for themselves and their families by putting it into action.

In order to be noticed and be able to compete, every business owner needs to start off writing down their business goals and aspirations in a formal written structure. This written structure is none other than a business plan carefully crafted to suite your business model and goals. 

We here at IWRITE can help you create a business plan that will help guide you through your business venture step by step.

Did you know? Resume Do's and Dont's...

When it comes to preparing a resume, we often times stress over the 'process' period. It doesn't have to be that way at all! There are key factors that we must remember while preparing a resume. First thing first, KEEP IT SHORT. I have to say this again, KEEP IT SHORT. Why? The shorter it is, the better it becomes. For some reason we have it process in our minds that the longer the resume the better the impact will be. Absolutely not! And here's the reason why...

The length of the resume should only be one page. Yes, you read that correctly ONE PAGE. Why? Employers nowadays, are getting away from collecting paper. Everything is electronic including: applications, new hire paperwork, and payment selection. Collaborating is the key while preparing  a resume. Try to condensed everything in that one page that you possible can. Condensing represents being cohesive.

Get away from 'fancy' paper. For some reason many think that because they have their resume on glossy or laminated paper, that it will draw attention. Not! Did you know that 95% of the time, managers don't keep resumes? Don't put too much emphasizes on the look. keep it simple, clean, and straight to the point. You want to impress the hiring manager what's on the resume, not so much on how it looks.

If you remember these key factors, your resume will get you that job you have been waiting for!
