Traffic, Sales and Profits concluded its TSP Live 2023 three-day conference that brought thousands of business owners and entrepreneurs together to go through boot camps and extensive training to learn how to grow their business through e-commerce and how to drive more traffic to their business websites.
The conference was held at the Avalon Hotel in the Atlanta area for the second year in a row. Last year keynote speaker was Magic Johnson. This year convention brought out heavy hitters such as Hip Hop Music Mogul Jermaine Dupri, Popular TV Producer and Star of HBO's Insecure Issa Rae, and on the final day, Media Icon Cathy Hughes the owner of Radio One and TV One and the second richest Black Woman behind Oprah Winfrey.
Jermaine Dupri, during his chat with conference host Lamar Tyler, unpacked his lessons learned in music and business, and his blueprint for success. He also talked about his new business ventures, such as his vegan ice cream company, and also having a lack of fear when going into unchartered waters.
Day Two of the conference was packed from morning until the late afternoon with several powerful business seminars ranging from "Learning how to use ChatGPT" from Alicia Lyttle, to "Upgrading your E-Commerce with AI" conducted by by TSP Coach John Lawson. The more than one thousand Black Small Business owners in attendance received one nugget after another of knowledge from the different experts and coaches throughout the conference.
The keynote speaker for Day two was none other than Issa Rae, star and the producer of HBO's Insecure. Some of the most inspiring points of her fireside chat with TSP Founder Lamar Tyler, were…
· Network within the circle you already have
· What you see as failures are really your biggest lessons
· Trust your gut and creative vision
· Invest in yourself and other people you believe in
· Stay on YOUR path and be mindful that everything that looks right isn’t always right for you, so take opportunities that make sense for your calling
· Dreaming big doesn’t always mean that you know the full vision right away; it is always evolving, and when you’ve achieved your dream on one level, you’ll unlock the next
Day Three of the conference concluded with more informational seminars including how to attain Corporate Sponsorships for your business ventures, and awards and acknowledgements for high earning businesses within the organization. Media Icon and owner of Radio One and TV One Cathy Hughes energized the audience with stories throughout her pioneering career from her humble beginnings as a single mom struggling to run a radio station in Washington DC and trying to secure financing, to growing the business as a publicly traded Media Conglomerate.
The conference ended the night out with Hip Hop Legend Slick Rick the Ruler singing an array of his classic hits from "La Di Da Di" to "Children's Story".
