Our work helps the Montgomery County (Maryland) Black Business Council promote a database and directory of vetted Black-owned businesses based in Montgomery County. We write blogs and business feature stories for the database platform and a bi-monthly newsletter.
The Opportunity
The Black Business Database provides a platform that makes it easy to find and connect with verified Black-owned businesses in Montgomery County, Maryland. Their twice-monthly newsletter spotlights one such business.
Since its inception, The Allyson Group has written blog posts and interviewed database members for the site and the newsletter.
The site’s content comprises topics of interest to businesses on a growth path, covering diverse topics such as government contracting, marketing and sales strategy, and business advocacy. Individual profile interviews increase visibility for local small businesses.
The database is a project of the Montgomery County Black Collective, a community of entrepreneurs who leverage their collective experience to expand opportunities for themselves and others.
