Black Fridays Special - How Black Women Entrepreneurs Are Reshaping Detroit
What Up Doe?! We wrap up our Black Business Month series at The Lip Bar Detroit with Part 3, spotlighting three trailblazing Detroit creatives and strategists:
Gail Perry-Mason – Founder of Money Matters for Youth, bestselling author, and financial literacy champion who empowers Detroit youth through summer investment camps and programs that teach economics as community power.
Erica Banks – Managing Partner of Bankable Marketing Strategies, a Detroit-based MARCOM and PR agency transforming brands with strategic storytelling and compelling visibility.
Dr. Germaine Pentsil – Founder of G. Pentsil Consulting, serving non-traditional entrepreneurs in Detroit with business consulting, HR guidance, and organizational development.
We're talking:
Financial literacy as legacy-building – how Gail Perry-Mason teaches wealth as a tool for freedom and intergenerational empowerment.
Marketing with purpose – Erica Banks’s approach to defining brand voices and crafting campaigns that amplify Black-owned businesses in Detroit.
Consulting with conscience – Dr. Germaine Pentsil’s journey to guiding the “non-traditional entrepreneur” through strategy, structure, and support.
Balancing creativity and strategy – how each woman builds and sustains her business while nurturing community and culture.
