August 25, 20205 yr comment_40053 On Twitter they go by the handle @BlackPressRadio I wanted to know if anyone else here has taken advantage of the Power 100? I think this is a wonderful way of addressing an issue @Jeffrey was raising about Authentic Black projects. I was interested in finding out what other people experiences were. If they were able to generate new contacts or business? I will let you know how my interview goes tomorrow. PS they gave me a gift certificate to share that has limited time redemption period. It’s good for $50 starting September 2020. Report
August 25, 20205 yr comment_40056 I never heard of them before now. How did you learn about them? So they are providing a service to businesses that allows them to prove that are Black owned? Would that be a service you would recommend for AALBC? If so, why? if not, why not? I just checked their domain registration: https://www.whois.com/whois/blkchk.com The domain 2.5 month old. New site always give me pause for concern. New sites that have only been registered for a year raises a red flag with me. I link to thousands of websites. I won't link to sites under these conditions because they are often fleeting and I don;t have the time to clean up bad links. I would not give them money -- unless I knew the principals personally. Someone needs to prove to me that they are Black owned. Let me know what you discover. Report
August 26, 20205 yr Author comment_40057 I met them on Twitter. I think they are registered on this site. When I went to put their Twitter handle in they popped up here also @BlackPressRadio I will let you know what I discover. They do look very new, but I guess you know me well enough by now to know that I don’t let newness stop me from supporting people who deliver. After all like Trump, I practice “The Art of Tax Deductions”. I would recommend them once I vetted them. This is why I put the inquiry out. I am reacquainting myself with the Internet after a 4 year hiatus. Report
August 26, 20205 yr comment_40059 Oh Black Press Radio is a whole 'nother story. I have heard of them 🙂 Did I miss the connection on their website? Report
August 26, 20205 yr Author comment_40061 They didn’t include it on the website. https://instagram.com/blackpress_radio?igshid=16o31esc8m7sy This appears to be their Instagram. I believe that they are or have been developing different web properties. What has your experience been? Report
August 27, 20205 yr Author comment_40115 @Troy they are legitimate. It’s DC Livers. I just finished an interview with her. I recommend it. She spoke highly of you. She also gave me some wonderful advice. @Jeffrey might want to consider reaching out to her. I am glad I paid for the Power 100. It provided independent content that promotes my book. Report
