Testimonies

------------------------------------------------------------

 

Good morning everyone.  We at GHAP (God Has Plan) just wanted to 
express to you the gratitude (love) that GHAP has for Willis Johnson and the
morning crew and C.W. Whitaker for all of their support and assistance
with marketing our small business and making our grantwriting seminars
such a success!!! The business mixers have proven to be a wealth of
unlimited resources for minority owned and small business development.
Thank you so very much for your support and keep on, keeping on.   In
God We Trust.

Total Co-Op Services began in 1998 inside of a home and the first 
contract was for the amount of $125.00. The business grew and had to be moved to 
the garage and a Sister Company was also added. The sister company is Texas 
Final Clean, our Make-Ready Division, and Total Co-op Services is our 
Janitorial Division. By coming to the mixer our Company has grown in 
size that we are now renting a Office & Garage to store our supplies and 
equipment. Our business,  because of the blessings from God and the 
people we have met at the mixer is now ending 2005 and beginning 2006 with a 
six figure income.

The Crooner networking mixers at Cozies on Thursday nights 
have been a 
very exceptional part of my business.  I have been able to mix with
many different businesses from the administrative side to the janitorial
aspects of business.  When ever I am in need of a service or contractor
for my business I refer to the Crooner directory. Keep up the
exceptional work and I thank you.

Dear Willis I would like to say thanks for all the things you do for
our community. I have been praying for a place where I could meet face to
face with people that can make decisions concerning employment of
people. That prayer was answered with your formation of the Cozi’s
networking events. I have attended Cozi’s 4 times to pass out my resume and
solicit a carpenter to do business for me at Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship
(OCBF). Unfortunately I have not had any success for either. However I am
a man of faith, so I will return too Cozi’s seeking the same assistance
tonight and every Thursday until I get a breakthrough.

Willis, I was one the winners last night at Billy G's where we was 
given half a ticket and had to find the person with the other half.  This 
was a good game to meet people at the mixer.  It was so funny, people 
would say "I'm 256 in the Mortgage Business, what's your ticket number. 
Anyway, thanks for the prize and the mixer.  I had a very good time and 
made some more contacts.  So far, I have 20 new clients from your mixer 
and used 7 people on your website and 2 off the mixer list.  You got it 
going in the right direction.  I look forward to the free food, 
positive black people, business mixing and your staff every Thursday --- 
Please Please Don't stop this wonderful event in a community that needs it 
more than you will ever know!!!

Holiday Greetings.
You, personally helped to make this a better year for me and I really,
really appreciate it.  You were directly responsible for me getting 
more sales, I believe and I am eternally grateful.  Hopefully the new year 
will see us making more money together and doing great things for our community.

Willis,
The main thing I admire about your program format is 
the way you share great information on any subject.  
You reach a really broad audience and probably don't 
know how many people you are assisting on a day to day basis.

Thank you in advance and keep doing what you do, 'cause you do it so well!

I hear things with the mixer are going very well, I had attended for
two months and now I'm so busy with people calling me from all over the
city wanting my service  that I can't make it to Billy G's.  I owe it to
you and Whit for making my small home based business a success.  You
guys go beyond the call of duty to help our community and I like to just
say God bless you guys.  By the way the website's new look is good and
navigation is even better.

I just want to thank you for explaining my website on Thursday
letting your listeners know that this was not a dress shop but custom made attire
(seamstress) if you will, but fashion designer sounds better (smile) I have
had a few calls, I have faith that there will be more  thanks a lot for
setting  this site so people like myself can be found.

Thank you , thank you and thank you, at C & R designs we got orders
totaling over 150 tee shirts the first day on Black Business Online.
Thank you for all you do to help Black People get their products and
service known to our community.... I will make it my 2004 goal to look for
other Black Business on your site first, so I can circulate my dollars in
our community
