In honor of Black History Month, I want to share with you some great businesses owned by black men and women. No matter what type of service you need personally or for your business these businesses have what you need. I have used several of them myself for my personal and business needs.

This is just a micro list of some various black business owners who can assist you. I tried to put the business in categories for easy reference. 

Taxes and Bookkeeping  

Administrative Business Services can perform all of the bookkeeping and reporting required for the financial success of your company or household, all the while ensuring the integrity and accuracy of your Accounting systems. Their portfolio consists of Political Action Committees, non-profits, legal and consulting firms and for-profit businesses. You can check ABS out here! The owner is Ms Deveria Flowers and she is the visionary of Color Escape coloring book series. 

Tax Free Living is an interesting concept. We all have heard many complain about how much they have to pay in taxes each year. However with this course from CPA Carter Cofield, learn to deduct your expenses like never before and live with lower taxes. This course can save you a ton of money every year on your taxes and maybe even to living tax free! Check it out here. 

 Side Hustles

Almost daily I am asked about ways to make extra money on the side to make ends meet or go on vacation and more. Some people are even ready to make a leap to full time entrepreneurship. Here are some great courses that can help you achieve either goal.

The Ultimate Virtual Assistant Bootcamp gives you all you need to earn money from anywhere. If you've ever wanted a new side hustle that you can do alongside your 9-5 or start your own agency, look no further than becoming a virtual assistant. Being a virtual assistant offers you so much flexibility and room for growth. 

Have no clue how to get started? That's okay! Check out this VA course from Annalisa Abell. She will show you exactly how you can get started with your own Virtual Assistant Business so you can make money in no time! I know the owner who teaches this course and she is killing it in the VA game. Check out the course here.

Being a notary is another important skill that is often very needed! It’s a great thing to do either as a side gig or if you’re looking to do it more for a full time job. Notaries are used when people buy homes, get marries and a bunch of other things. Check out Andre’s Mobile Notary Clinic to learn how to build a notary signing agency. You can connect your clients with notaries and learn how to get your clients the best services in this bootcamp. You can check it out here. 

Master Being an Affiliate is one of my absolutely favorite courses. Why you ask? Because it is the course where I teach people who I call "money makers"  how to make money from their phone or computer. You can do this without needing to have a course, product or service! You get the A-Z on how to get started with affiliate relationships and learn everything so you too can make money passively.
