Meet TAP client, Courtney Wiggins, the founder of Winsome Apothecary in Queens, NY. As a single mother Courtney’s journey is a powerful testament to resilience, creativity, and unstoppable determination. From her early love for natural remedies to the bold decision to launch her business during the pandemic, Courtney’s story is remarkable. Courtney worked with TAP to improve branding, sharing strategies to build brand equity and leverage the various social media platforms. Additionally, TAP consultants worked with Courtney on sales strategies, encouraged her to focus on fewer but higher-quality distribution channels, and provided guidance for setting up an Amazon store. As August comes to a close, we celebrate Black-Owned Business Month. TAP is proud to highlight Courtney’s remarkable journey. Join us in honoring Courtney and the enduring legacy of Black entrepreneurship that continues to shape our world. #BlackOwnedBusinessMonth #Entrepreneurship #Innovation #WinsomeApothecary #TAP

We're thrilled to share the incredible story of TAP client, Sedonia Croom, a true warrior. After bravely navigating her own healing journey from cancer, Sedonia is now revitalizing Croom Salon in the Bronx and reconnecting with her cherished clients. But her mission goes beyond business—Sedonia is passionate about using her experience to support others facing cancer. Her salon has a private room and other supports for cancer patients. As she embarks on this new chapter, Sedonia worked with TAP to strengthen her business by improving systems for the salon's financial, marketing success. #SmallBusiness #CancerSurvivor #Empowerment #Resilience #SupportSmallBusiness
