When I joined as an official ambassador for Uncloned Media, it was after a careful deliberative process. Plus, there was a lengthy application process.

Here are three reasons why I am are careful about joining ambassador programs- and why I support damn near everything Audria Richmond makes.

1. I only consider programs that I am personally enthusiastic about - I'm talking about programs that I love so much that I freely talk about them in almost every business conversation. For me, Audria Richmond's brand fit the bill. I was an ambassador for free long before she launched her ambassador program. I love that she encourages Black folks, especially women, to take up space.

2. Reputation is the most important thing we have. That's why it's so important that we only support things that we'd be willing to put our name behind. Even though I'm not a social media influencer, I do know that there are people who care what I have to say. I try really hard to make sure that I am only supporting folks who are aligned with my values and the values of my clients.

3. When I see someone who is consistently knocking the ball out the park, I often also see people who are eager to take take take from them. Being an ambassador is my way to give back. It's helping a Black business grow - while also helping other Black businesses grow. It's part of practicing community care.
