Our Story

Sometimes hard work isn't enough.

Running a business can be tough—especially when you come from a background where the odds are stacked against you. I grew up in inner-city Detroit at a time when support systems were being stripped from our families. Entrepreneurship was my way out.

Today, Growmetix® helps others achieve economic freedom through entrepreneurship. We design & deliver coaching and learning experiences that inspire entrepreneurs, business leaders and work teams to break through barriers to success.

Our Journey

We advocate for economic mobility by helping diverse businesses grow.

At Growmetix®, we believe business ownership is an often overlooked means of leaving behind the cycle of poverty in which too many hard working people find themselves.

We are committed to making entrepreneurial success attainable for all people — irrespective of socioeconomic status or background.

We are proud to be a certified MBE, WBE, EDWOSB and WOSB and honored to serve a diverse portfolio of clients who share our commitment to equity, innovation and impact.

We were named a finalist for Gusto's Impact Awards, which recognizes small businesses creating change in the community.

2024

Growmetix® kicked off Luna Launchpad®, a program aimed at helping black womenpreneurs make the leap from side hustle to full time founder.

2024 + 2023

We were honored to make Charlotte Business Journal's list of Largest Black Owned Companies. A testament to the impact we're making.

2022

We expanded our reach with an office in Portland, Oregon, solidifying our commitment to serving a national network of entrepreneurs.
