Supporting a Black-owned business doesn’t mean you can’t hold us accountable. It means giving us the same opportunity to correct a mistake that you’d give any other business 🗣️

TALK TO US BEFORE YOU TALK ABOUT US 8x/10… we’re there.

Here’s what we welcome:

✅ Let us know. We can’t fix what we don’t know about
✅ Communication. Talk to us. We’re listening.
✅ Refund. When appropriate, we’ll make it right.
✅ Remake. Don’t like it? Something was wrong? Give us a chance to correct it.
✅ Advice. Constructive feedback helps us grow and become better.

What doesn’t help:

❌ Slander
❌ False narratives or exaggerated stories
❌ Arguing instead of communicating

❌ Trying to tear down THE BUSINESS 🤔 instead of resolving the issue
❌ Exaggerating what happened

We’re still learning. We’re still growing. And we WANT to hear from you. But tearing each other down shouldn’t be the first option when a conversation could solve the whole problem. 🖤
