We would love to hear from you! Text "BBMFAM" to (312) 300-1300.

We kick off Season 11 by naming the changes we’re making across our agency and our show, and why pivoting can be a sign of strength. We unpack what sustainable growth really looks like for Black founders, from systems and tools to community support and long-term legacy. 

• Season reset and why pivoting yields profit 
• L3 Agency evolution, BBM Mag expansion, and advertising opportunities 
• Sustainability over scalability, founder control, and operational systems 
• Grief, leadership and how community keeps us moving 
• New CRM workflow, efficiency plus effectiveness, learning new tech 
• Practical AI use with Gemini and a clearer tech stack 
• Social media strategy, converting followers, auditing platforms, avoiding trend chasing 
• Energy efficiency and sustainability work as part of our next chapter 
• Why Black businesses matter, mentorship, jobs, and broader economic impact 
• Social  capital, patience and building relationships over time 
• community feedback, better hours for brick-and-mortar, and celebrating the positive 

I hope that you will rate us and that you will share this episode with a friend, with a colleague, that an ally. 
All I ask that you share it with someone who you think could find value in this.
