Founders Are Creating ‘NEW BLACK HISTORY’ Through Entrepreneurship

Lamar and Ronnie Tyler have done the work so Black entrepreneurs can pull up to the winner’s table ahead of the game.

As founders of Tyler New Media and Traffic Sales and Profit (TSP), the two-time Inc. 5000 power couple are change agents who are breaking chains by educating Black entrepreneurs on how to create well-engineered systems and strategies to increase their profits and build their burgeoning brands.

A passion fuels the Tylers to change the economic landscape of the Black community by aiding entrepreneurs who want to secure the bag with a blueprint to Black wealth. Together, they are essentially creating “New Black History” by closing the wealth gap through entrepreneurship.

“I TELL MY TEAM ALL THE TIME, WE ARE LITERALLY IN THE BUSINESS OF MAKING AND GENERATING WEALTH FOR PEOPLE THROUGH BUSINESSES,” LAMAR TOLD BLACK ENTERPRISE.

Through their work, the Atlanta power duo is disrupting and dismantling systemic barriers Black communities face by helping entrepreneurs enhance their odds of financial wellness.

Traffic Sales and Profit has helped more than 20,000 Black-owned businesses earn collectively $100 million in revenue annually, year over year.

Additionally, this same community has had 10 organizations on the Inc. 5000 list over the last 3 years; Tyler New Media, SheDavi, EFS Group, Client Attraction University, Sassy Jones, Travel Divas, Izzy & Liv, CurlMix, Curl Kit and Miller Media Group.

TSP is a supportive ecosystem for purpose-driven African American business owners locked out of opportunities to start or grow their businesses because of economic disadvantages, lack of access, capital, know-how, or for basically being Black. And yes, that’s still a thing.

“According to a McKinsey report, “participants in focus groups said that they feel that their race—and sometimes age and gender—makes loan officers hesitant to lend to them.”

Biases still exist, especially in the banking industry, and racial funding gaps are fundamental.
