            5. 5 Things Women of Color Should Do to Improve Their Access to Capital with Adeola Adejobi S6 Ep. 3

              5 Things Women of Color Should Do to Improve Their Access to Capital with Adeola Adejobi S6 Ep. 3


              As women, we know its true. Women more broadly, women of color in particular and Black women especially have less access to capital and face compounded intersectional challenges in business.. One of the many hurdles is capital access for women of color and Black women in particular. My guest started the Women of Color and Capital Conference, one of the largest convenings of women of color in the US to address access to business capital, finance, and growing wealth for women of color.


              My guest is Adeola Adejobi, the Founder and CEO of the Avant-Garde Network (AGN), a leading social impact company that creates social and economic impact through a collaborative ecosystem of industry professionals, business leaders, and entrepreneurs. Through AGN she created the Women of Color and Capital Conference, the only conference of its kind where diverse women entrepreneurs & professionals come together to learn about money, finance, capital, and investing from a 360-degree lens.


              In this episode youll learn:


              • The major access barriers to capital for women of color
              • What must happen to reduce the barriers to capital for women of color
              • 5 things women of color can do to improve their access to capital; and

              • Key takeaways:


                Networking is investing in a relationship: Networking is establishing genuine connections over time. People often think that networking is about meeting people and thinking about what you can get from them. Networking is not that! Networking is investing in a relationship so that if and when over time if you need something you have a pool of people that you can call on as a resource to be able to do some of the things you want to do or get the help that you need to get.


                Women of color grow slower: Due to access barriers WOC grow slower because they spend many productive hours doing all the things themselves that they could outsource to increase productivity and profit. But, due to lack of capital, they are stuck doing all of the work in their business, some of which could be best done by others.


                Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFI) are good capital sources for early-stage women of color in lieu of big banks. CDFIs have a mission and mandate to CDFIs are mission-driven financial institutions that create economic opportunity for individuals and small businesses.


                Women of Color Must Increase Their Prices: WOC often charge too little, which impedes profitability, and in turn makes it difficult to get a bank loan or attract angel investors in the early stages.


                The hardest task is to get to the 6-figure mark for women of color and then to scale to a million. Over 90% of Black women work their day job while running a business. That means that in addition to lack of financial capital they also lack time and currency as well.


                • 5 key things that women of color can do to improve their access to capital:
                • Figure out how you can make more money!
                • Have your financial house in order
                • Work on your pitch
                • Lean in on your community - build your personal board
                • Just keep going!

                  • Do the following to ensure your business is structured for growth:
                  • Have your financial house in order
                  • Do you tax return and maintain proper bookkeeping
                  • Document your business mission statement
                  • Have a business plan with projections
                  • Generate revenue (this is key!)

                  • Growing from Zero to One with Drew Glover S6 Ep. 2

                    Growing from Zero to One with Drew Glover S6 Ep. 2


                    If you are struggling to find the right marketing strategy for your business or with figuring out which are the right hires to get your company to the next stage, keep listening. My guest will ube discussing what makes a hstrong go-to-market strategy and how to build a team from zero to one and beyond.


                    Drew Glover is a founding Partner of Fiat Growth and a General Partner at Fiat Ventures. He is no stranger to the world of growth, technology, and marketing. From his time at Steady where he led marketplace development and growth to Namely, Fjord, and Portal A, he navigated the ins and outs of Go-to-Market strategies and user acquisition.


                    In this episode we discussed:


                    • What makes a strong go-to-market strategy - ensure that you have done deep discovery
                    • How to build a business from zero to one - who are the people to have on the bus to go from zero to one vs the people you need at the growth phase
                    • How to scale a team - when to hire generalists vs specialists
                    • Venture capital investing - what Drew looks for in founders he invests in
                    • Starting a venture fund - ways in which fundraising for a venture fund is similar to fundraising for a company and ways its different.
                    • Key takeaways:

                      • Thirty (30%) percent of venture dollars typically go directly to marketing for a startup. The companies that have a much higher likelihood of failing are the ones that aren't able to distribute that money in efficient ways.
                      • What marketing is at its heart is testing and iterating, preferably cheaply to figure out what works and doesn't work.
                      • Deep discovery and clarity about who your customers are is key to successfully marketing to them.
                      • Business growth is not just hiring, it's hiring the right people at the right time. Founders must ensure they understand if the people they are hiring are 0 to 1 people or are they 1 to 10 people.
                      • 0 to 1 vs 1 to 10: 0 to 1 is individuals who are more generalist versus specialist. They're able to do a lot of things. You need folks that can wear a lot of different hats that don't need a ton of guidance. As you start to grow you need very specific specialists for different parts of your business, these are your 1 to 10 people.
                      • Venture capital is a relationship business. Its a business of returns.

                      • Reach out to Drew on Linkedin with legitimate (emphasis on legitimate) questions because he does respond, which is not always the case on LinkedIn, which is the platform where he is most active.

                      • What’s Keeping Me Here with Michelle McKenzie S6 Ep.1

                        Hey WTF? Podcast listeners! If you are new here, welcome and if you have been rocking with me for a while, well, its been too long since I did a solo episode, so, here we are!


                        I have been at this podcast for a little while now and I am taking stock of what I can do better to serve your needs as listeners. Please complete this survey to let me know how I can improve the show and better serve your needs as listeners.


                        From now on you can expect at least one solo episode from me per season to kick-off the season and to inject more of me into the show. Also, I love getting feedback from those of you who listen and share your feedback. That means a lot to me so please keep sharing, I love reading them!.


                        In this episode I talk about whats going on with me and do a recap of what you can expect from the season. If you like this way of kicking-off a season, email me and let me know. Lets be more social and build community.


                        I am also trying to do a better job with social media and promoting the podcast, which is probably the most important part of having a podcast after producing the podcast. Unfortunately, I havent been so good at that part. I kept telling myself that social media isnt my thing and I much prefer consuming other peoples content than creating content to feed it.


                        But, guess what? I think I have to change that mindset and figure out how to grow this podcast and this community. I hope you will help me do that by following the show pages on Instagram and LinkedIn and engaging with the content as well as sharing your favorite episodes with friends or colleagues who could benefit from the conversations that you benefit the most from.
