Leonard J. Young, CEO of National Black Guide, LLC has relaunched the BlackGuide app (http://www.blackguideapp.com) with new features after receiving feedback from users on what the original app was missing from other black directory apps and their troubles finding ways to support black businesses and events locally and while traveling. National Black Guide, LLC has been catering to the African American community for over 10
years by providing news, black business directories, events calendars, and networking
opportunities to a combined population of over 10 million.
The BlackGuide App (www.blackguideapp.com) connects to the National Black Guide’s website and provides local/national news, an events calendar, a black business directory connecting you to businesses closest to you. The BlackGuide app will soon add a marketplace classified section, forthcoming entrepreneur of the month, and a few more features items of benefit. “We are excited to relaunch this innovative app that will help stimulate economic development in our communities and recycle the black dollar. The best part of the BlackGuide app is that the content is 90% user-generated. As people add their events and businesses to the website (once approved), they are available to be accessed through the website and app.” says CEO Leonard J. Young.
National Black Guide, LLC believes that this app will make it simple to find and support local black-owned businesses. According to the latest data from the SBA’s Office of Advocacy, African-Americans own 2.6 million small businesses. The BlackGuide app is geared to empower individuals to have more options regarding ways they can be informed of and support these businesses. Black Businesses can submit their information at Nationalblackguide.com.
