History of Business: Tyler New Media, LLC
In 2007, Ronnie and Lamar Tyler founded Tyler New Media as a deeply personal project with a profound mission: to promote positive images of marriage within the African-American community. What began as a modest personal blog has blossomed into a movement and a flourishing small business dedicated to empowering entrepreneurs to scale and grow.
Our mission is realized through a diverse array of offerings including digital courses, targeted coaching, mastermind programs, and large-scale events. Each product and service is meticulously crafted to ensure that our clients receive not only the knowledge but also the practical tools necessary to succeed in their business endeavors.
Tyler New Media’s journey was ignited not by financial investment but through sheer determination and sweat equity. Both Lamar and I poured our passion and expertise into every aspect of the company, steadfast in our belief that with hard work and dedication, we could make a tangible difference.
Our initial focus on celebrating African-American marriages quickly resonated with a wider audience, highlighting the need for a supportive community and resources for Black entrepreneurs. This insight led to the expansion of our brand, from a single blog to a comprehensive platform for business education and growth.
Over the years, we have remained true to our roots, ensuring that each step forward aligns with our core vision of uplifting and transforming the narrative around African-American business success. We have had the privilege of witnessing numerous entrepreneurs thrive under our guidance, which in turn has fueled our growth as a company and as a cornerstone of the community we serve.
Tyler New Media is more than just a business—it’s a testament to the power of vision, community, and the entrepreneurial spirit. As we continue to evolve and expand our impact, we remain committed to the belief that education and empowerment are the keys to success, not just for our company, but for all those we have the honor of serving.
