Black Business Builder Club - The Why

People are always looking for insiders' tips and strategies which will give the edge will lead them to success. They want to know why they aren't experiencing the success they see other people are archieving. They want answers and instant results.

Understanding the need of the masses and their desire for instant results, Lee Green Founder of The National Black Business Trade Association created the Black Business Builders Club.

The Black Business Builders Club has been in existance for 2 years now and has recently undergone a massive restrucing. Tons of content and technology have been added and the atmosphere has become one of a Success University. "It makes me think back to the great learning centers of Kemit (Egypt) and Timbuktu", reflects one member of the Black Business Builders Club on a conference call.

What makes the Black Business Builders Club so special is that is counter acts so many myths that still exist. Black People Can Work Together. Black People Can Rise Above Petty Differences. Black People Can Do Business With the Best of Practices.

On Thursday, October 11, 2007 Founder and President Muhammad Ali Nassardeen of the Organization Recycling Black Dollars Passed to the other side. While he did create the concept he was one of the strongest advocates of Black People channeling their dollars to flow through their community several times before letting it leave the community.

When asked in an Black Enterprise interview by Latif Lewis , "Why is the act of recycling black dollars important?" Nassardeen replied. "Our dollars have more power when we keep them in the community longer. So the problem with the black economy is that as soon as our dollars come in, they go out. BLACK ENTERPRISE reported that [African Americans] have [a buying power of] $723 billion. If we could see that every dollar that we took in would turn over at least twice before it went out, that would increase that number to over $1 trillion. I mean we would have over $2 trillion as an economy as opposed to $723 billion.

It's as simple as that. If you bank at a black bank, if you go to black cleaners, if you go to black restaurants, if you go to black-owned theaters, you are recycling your dollars. And every time you do that you have a strong impact. So when you go to buy the second largest purchase for most families, which is an automobile, and you buy it at a black company like Prestige Auto (No. 1 on the BE AUTO DEALER 100 list with $1.1 billion in sales), now the impact of that $30,000 expense is with a black business that has black employees, that are paying black employees, that are going to other black businesses. So it keeps our economy stimulated."

I was listening to a mp3 the other day and the speaker said that someone had asked him what the apple pie he was eating tasted like. He replied that it must taste a lot like its source. If you want to know about an organization it's good to look at where it came from. With the Black Business Builders Club the source is the National Black Business Trade Association.
