We have finally landed two big clients, MONTHS in the making, - the larger the company the LONGER it takes to go through their processes. Now the payment structure thankfully we use factoring, and that is a lifesaver too, as large companies often want to push payment terms out to 90 days - and many companies just can't survive that delay.

Good morning all! This post comes a few days ahead of the Friday Wins. I wanted to share that we have officially been certified as an LGBTBE by the NGLCC (National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce). We have been working for months to complete the process. This now opens doors for us to various Diverse Supplier opportunities and to connect with over 2,200 Certified LGBT Businesses. If you want more info about how to get your LGBTBE, shoot me a message. ☕🌈

The GayBarchives project has been my primary focus for over 6 years now. My experiences in the queer community started in the bars. QUESTION: How did the LGBTQ+ bars and safe spaces impact your coming out and, subsequently, your career path? https://Facebook.com/groups/GayBarchives #ilovegaybars

Last month I posted that the GayBarchives group on FB had reached 18,000 members - and about 400 new members in a single week. TODAY we added more than 500 new members and topped 20,400! Several of our posts over the past week have topped 50,000 views each. VISIBILITY is our friend. If this continues, the sky is the limit. #ilovegaybars #GayBarchives

Good Morning Syndicate Fam, Happy Friday, we made it through the week. Let's start by welcoming our newest member @Robert Bu in the Connecticut/NYC area. Robert brings 40+ years in the Corporate sector, always out and proud. He will bring leadership skills, mentoring, and many other more tangible assets. He is hoping to grow his network out of the confines of Linked In. Give him a warm welcome. On Fridays let's share our wins for the week, either professionally or personally or both. We need to celebrate each other and wins big or small that move us forward in our businesses and lives. Also on Friday's I want to have a little fun in the group, so here's today's fun challenge: Let's Play Rainbow Shark Tank (The Goofy Edition) Members, please pitch a ridiculous or half-baked business idea in 60 seconds. Examples: - “Subscription box for people who start hobbies but never finish them” - “Gay campground but it’s only introverts” - “AI that texts your clients back while you emotionally recover” After we get all the entries, I will put them together in this Sunday's Newsletter for members to vote on Group votes: - Most Profitable - Most Unhinged - Would Absolutely Buy Winners will get some silly prizes from me. Hope you all will try to play.
