A Black Business Network Website of your own gives information about your Black-owned business to people who visit to the Black Business Network website.
You can display your business name, address, phone numbers, email address and website link, plus company logo or photograph. You can also display a description of your business, detailed information about the purpose of your business, your recommended products and information about yourself. You also can customize an additional full page of your own with more information. You can update your website as often as you like. |

Promote On Message Boards
One of the most exciting features of the Black Business Network are the various message boards found throughout the website. Members use the message boards to communicate with one another, socialize and find out about Black-owned businesses.
As a business member, you can post messages promoting your business on almost allof the message boards, giving you great exposure throughout the website. |

Blog
Blogs are personal diaries of experiences, views and opinions of the writer. Blogs are written by ordinary people about everything from politics to cooking. Blogs are relatively new and have become an Internet SENSATION. Millions of people return to particular websites to read Blogs they like, every single day. Good blogs are very effective at gaining a fan base. For a Black business, this can be tremendously valuable. By publishing a blog, the business can gain thousands of readers who develop an emotional attachment to the business owner, and become loyal customers to the business.
If you join the Black Business Network at Copper level or higher, you can publish a Blog about your Black-owned business. By adding new entries to your Blog often (weekly, preferably daily), you can gain a lot of readers, fans, and eventually loyal customers.

Banner Ad
A banner advertisement is a very effective way to get website visitors interested in your business. On this TAG TEAM Marketing website, banner ads appear on the left side of the screen and 'rotate' (change to a new ad every few seconds . This keeps Black businesses out in front of our visitors the entire time they are on the website, and can lead to contacts and sales.
When a user clicks your profile, it can either go to your Black business listing / profile, or directly to your product in the Buy Black Today online store.
You can supply us with your own website banner:
- Your banner should measure 320 x 310 pixels.
- The banner should include positive, Black people in the photo (if people are shown)
- It should direct the user to "click here" for more.
- Your ad should be in the JPG format.
We can also design and produce a professional banner advertisement for you, for an additional charge. |

| The actual size of the banner would be 320 pixels wide by 310 pixels high |

Internet Video Commercial
Video commercials are a powerful way to get people to know about your company, products, services and/or opportunity. The best commercial features you speaking about your company. When Black consumers see your Black face and hear you passionately describe your Black company in your own voice, they gain an immediate connection with you. This can greatly increase your sales.
We can film a 60-second video commercial of you speaking about your products at one of our live events, or you can send us a video you've filmed yourself. Your video commercial will be edited and then made available for our members to view on this website.
We can also produce more elaborate promotional videos, presentations and even infomercials about your Black-owned business that can be played on this website and/or made into DVDs, for an additional charge. |

Vending
Vending is a fantastic way to generate instant sales and revenues for Black business owners. The Black Business Network hosts live events where members can set up vending tables and sell their products to the attendees.
The most unique and powerful aspect of vending at Black Business Network events is that it is a team effort. Black Business Network members bring and display their merchandise, and offer part of the sales price as a sales commission. Members of the TAG TEAM Marketing Business Opportunity in turn bring lots of people to the events and encourage them to shop with the vendors, so they can earn those commissions. As a result, the two organizations work together to make each event a great success.
Only Black Business Network members can vend at Black Business Network events. Vending space is included free at Platinum Advertiser and all Supplier membership levels, and can be purchased at all other business membership levels. At each event, tables are available on a first come, first served basis. |

Email Blasts
Email blasts are customized messages about your Black-owned business that are sent out to all or part of the Black Business Network membership.
"E-Blasts", as they are called, are a very effective way to let Black Business Network members know about your company, products and/or services, events, programs, etc.
We can design custom email blasts that highlight your products and services, and connect with Black consumers. |
