I have spent years watching our community work hard but build slowly.
The racial wealth gap is a well-known issue, but the scaling gap is rarely, if ever, honestly discussed. Too many Black and Brown business owners get stuck at six figures because teaching how to structure, scale, or exit a business the way the wealthy do is not discussed.
We know how to work hard, how to build from nothing, and how to create opportunities for ourselves. But what we do not always master is how to:
Scale beyond the daily hustle so our businesses do not need us 24/7
Maximize the tax code the way corporations and the wealthy do
Position our businesses as assets so we can sell, pass them down, or turn them into long-term wealth
That is what keeps many business owners stuck at six figures instead of reaching multi-six and seven figures.
Working Hard is Not the Same as Building Wealth
Many entrepreneurs work 60 hours a week, grinding to keep the business running, making anywhere from $100,000 to $300,000 a year, but still feeling exhausted.
I have been there.
I once believed that making six figures meant success. But when tax season came, when I wanted time off, or when I needed funding for my next move, I realized I was not building wealth—I was paying my bills at a higher level.
That is not success. That is a trap.
Why Most Businesses Get Stuck at $300K
Once a business reaches six figures, the game changes.
At $100,000 to $300,000, working harder is no longer the solution—systems are.
At $300,000 and beyond, taxes, funding, and wealth strategies matter more than effort.
At $1,000,000 and above, the business runs without the owner, which is how real wealth is built.
If the revenue is there, but the financial security and growth are not, it is time to change the approach.
Three Strategies to Scale Beyond $300K & Build a Business That Runs Without You
Most business owners become their business, meaning everything stops if they step away. That is not a business but a high-paying job with no benefits.
Wealthy entrepreneurs build businesses that generate revenue even when they are not actively working. They automate, delegate, and establish systems that allow the business to grow without them being involved in every detail.
The BlackPrint DIY Workbook provides a step-by-step guide to creating a scalable, sellable business model that does not require the owner to handle everything.
Master the Tax Code and Optimize Financials
Many six-figure business owners pay more in taxes than necessary because they operate like employees rather than business owners.
I worked with a client who made $250,000 per year but was paying more than $80,000 in taxes. By restructuring her business, implementing tax-saving strategies, and setting up the right financial systems, she saved more than $52,000 in just one year.
The BlackPrint Accelerator Webinar provides business owners with tax strategies, pricing models, and financial automation techniques that allow them to keep more of what they earn and build wealth.
Position the Business to Sell, Even If Selling Is Not the Goal
The wealthiest entrepreneurs do not just make money—they build businesses that are valuable assets.
Even if a business owner never plans to sell, the business should be structured as if it might be sold one day. A company designed for sale is duly designed for scalability. That means having clear financials, streamlined operations, and a structure that does not rely on one person to function.
The Momentum Coaching Program provides business owners with direct, hands-on coaching to help them automate, scale, and prepare their businesses for sustainable, long-term growth.
Scaling is a Choice, But Struggling is Too
Many business owners wait until they are overwhelmed, burnt out, or financially stuck before they take scaling seriously. But why wait until frustration sets in when the solution is already available?
The BlackPrint was created as a shortcut to scaling. It provides a clear roadmap that has helped business owners break through the $300,000 plateau and position themselves for true financial success.
There are three ways to get started:
Do-it-yourself with the BlackPrint Workbook and begin implementing the strategies independently.
Join the four-day live BlackPrint Webinar for direct coaching and guidance.
Work with me in the Momentum 4-Week Coaching Program for personalized, hands-on support.
For business owners who are unsure where to start, I offer a free 30-minute strategy call to help map out a growth plan.
No one builds a legacy by staying stuck. The opportunity to scale is here—it is just a matter of taking the next step.
