Houston, TX, November 14, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Onyx Six plans to usher in new methods for aiding and encouraging minority business owners.

Onyx Six announces its plans to revive the mentor/mentee relationship amongst minority business owners and professionals through its new Mentorship Program (launch 2009). Onyx Six is one of few minority business networks whose primary focus is on educating the business community and providing a rich menagerie of resources and advice. Onyx Six is committed to creating a supportive and influential community of minority business owners and professionals. "Our mission is to encourage and strengthen our members in their quest to achieve financial freedom, personal wealth, and success", says co-owner and founder Lyndsey Shaffer.

On mentorship, co-owner and founder Zerik Scales says this, "Mentorship is the key to gaining a competitive edge in any profession and is much needed among the minority business community. Many minority businesses are first generation and need constant guidance and advice so as to be molded into a self sustaining, flourishing company". Onyx Six is dedicated to establishing these cooperative fellowships between more experienced companies and less experienced businesses to exchange knowledge, skills, and best practices.

Through their new Mentorship Program, Onyx Six will continue to encourage all of their members to lead by example and to use the Onyx Six community to reach out to one another, gain exposure for your business and educate yourself and others while striving together to set a new standard of excellence for minority business enterprises. "It is important that the minority youth have prominent figures they can look up to as role models, to guide their mindsets towards being entrepreneurial which will put them on a path towards personal wealth and financial freedom," says Scales.

The mission of Onyx Six is to give minority women the resources they need to succeed in their respective fields. This line of thinking goes beyond just networking but actually equipping minority businesswomen with the tools and training needed to be competitive in today's and tomorrow's market.
