A lot of you are missing out on getting $100,000+ in business funding, and here's why: Your business isn’t looking the part.
For example, picture this:
I walk up to you with toothpaste smeared on my face, a hole in my shirt, and missing a shoe…
Then I say “Hey, I’m BrandB and I help entrepreneurs get 6 figures in business funding”
You'd feel skeptical, right? But guess what? That's how many of you unknowingly present your businesses.
Without the basics like a dedicated business email, a legitimate brick and mortar business address, an official business phone number, etc. You're waving a big 'NOT READY BUT NEEDY' flag for that funding. Once you have that sorted, only then can you go in and apply for funding. But that’s just one piece of the puzzle to get 6 figures in funding…
Remember 6 figures is only $274/per day. I used to set a goal of $300-$350/day as my Uber target. $100 filled my truck tank, $100 was business savings, $100 was my Bill money, & the $50 would feed me because you don't stop to cook. My target was 30 rides a day & I made it on the days I wasn't being lazy which wasn't too often. I've shared my W2 with you to show you it is possible to make $274/day!

What Day Is Your Me, Myself & I Day? | |

Saturday:
A sacred sanctuary of time. In the realm of life, I say, 'Value each Saturday as a precious gem, for time is the currency of life. Live this day without distractions, savoring every moment, and let the whispers of your heart guide your journey.
In the stillness of Saturday, discover the richness of an uncluttered existence, where every breath is intentional and every moment is lived with purpose. Time is a gift; don't just spend it, invest it wisely in the tapestry of your life.'
Saturday is my day of rest. It is the day I declutter my mind and organize my thoughts. You may not make Saturday your "Wind Down Day" but be sure to give yourself (1) one day in each week to unwind, declutter, and organize your mind, your spirit, and concentrate on a healthy you.

New Federal Reporting Requirement for Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) | |
I shared this info in detail in my last newsletter but due to it's importance I will share some of it again and encourage you to read it for yourself. Read Last Week's Email Here...
In 2021, Congress enacted the Corporate Transparency Act. This law creates a beneficial ownership information reporting requirement as part of the U.S. government’s efforts to make it harder for bad actors to hide or benefit from their ill-gotten gains through shell companies or other opaque ownership structures.
On 9/29/22 FinCEN issued the very anticipated Final Rule establishing a beneficial ownership information reporting requirement, pursuant to the bipartisan Corporate Transparency Act (CTA).
The Final Rule will require most corporations, limited liability companies, and other entities created in or registered to do business in the United States to report information about their beneficial ownership. The Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) reporting provisions of the CTA proposed rule is designed to protect the US financial system from illicit use and impede malign actors from abusing legal entities, including shell companies, to conceal proceeds of corrupt/criminal acts.
Reporting companies (domestic and foreign) ought to make sure that they will be ready to comply with the Final Rule by its effective date of January 1, 2024, to identify the beneficial owners of an entity and the company applicants of an entity.
The goal of the Beneficial Ownership Rule
To collect information and provide access to law enforcement, financial institutions, and other authorized users to combat corruption by covering:
- who must report beneficial ownership information
- when they must report
- what information they must provide
