How to shop at Black-owned businesses over the holidays
CBS News
2020-11-27
As Americans gear up for the holidays, social media campaigns are urging customers to spend money at Black-owned companies to help offset the devastating economic impact of the coronavirus.
Although the pandemic is slamming business owners of all creeds and colors, Black firms have been hit particularly hard. More than 440,000 Black-owned establishments have closed shop for good this year, and more are expected to follow suit.
Supporting Black businesses amounts to a three-step process — all of which can be done from the comfort and safety of home: Find a company, make a purchase, then post a review.
Local entrepreneur hosts first ever networking event to help inspire other female business owners

A former recipient of business support through the Comcast Rise program hosted a networking event to help women gain business resources.
The goal of both programs is helping female entrepreneurs get started in the business world, and help them overcome challenges female business owners face when starting.
Stacy Roberts, a lecturer of Management and Marketing at Augusta University’s Hull College of Business, said women entrepreneurs do face challenges when it comes to funding, networking, and balancing work and life, but a little help goes a long way.
“We all face the same things such as capital, balance, just trying to get in the mindset and get the resources to start a business,” said Roberts.

Even though she owns her own company, Pamela Barrett doesn’t mind getting her hands dirty with her employees – including her husband, John.
When you own a plumbing company, dirty work is unavoidable.
“We’ve changed out toilets together, put in a 250-foot gas line together, we’ve put in water heaters together, garbage disposals,” she said. “I’ve done the grunt work. I’ve smelled the smells. I’ve seen the yuck.”
Perking up: Employers lure new hires with out-of-the-box benefits

Competitive pay and strong health insurance aren’t the only enticements that employers offer job applicants. Even a brisket might seal the deal.
Like many businesses in the Augusta area, FPL Food on New Savannah Road is hiring. But in addition to offering more ordinary perks such as 401(k) matching, one of the largest fresh-beef processors in the Southeast also offers “discounted meat purchases for all employees.”
How do they do it? Small business experts share secrets of success

Pat Curry planned on devoting a whole day to baking muffins for Buona Caffe, the small Augusta coffee business she and her husband, John, started almost 10 years ago.
But she also had to help a barista with improving her latte foam art. And help recalibrate one of the grinders that was pouring shots too fast. And schedule workers to clean their grease traps.
“Things that big chains don’t think too much about because corporate is taking care of that,” she said. “Well, we are corporate.”
Buona Caffe is a survivor. About 20% of all small businesses fail within their first year of operation, and almost 50% go under within the first five years.
Stacy Roberts, a lecturer in management in Augusta University’s Hull College of Business, cited local baker BabyCakes as an example of quickly putting ideas into motion. Owner Tiara Fluellen started her business by making just cupcakes, but has since expanded from a simple bakery to a full-blown café with full-sized cakes, puddings and other freshly made sweets in a variety of unique flavors.
