The Black Friday Network (TBFN) is a groundbreaking initiative dedicated to creating equitable opportunities for Black insurance agents and agency owners within the insurance distribution industry. Founded by a team of industry professionals who recognized the significant challenges and barriers faced by underrepresented agents, TBFN strives to bridge the gap by providing access to capital, capacity, and consultative resources.

Our Mission
TBFN’s mission is to empower Black agents and agency owners to thrive in a historically exclusive industry. Through solidarity, trust, and value-building, we aim to foster a collaborative community that promotes generational ownership, professional development, and workforce representation.

What We Do

• Connecting Opportunities: We facilitate meaningful connections between agents and diversity-focused insurance companies to drive impactful partnerships.

• Closing the Gap: Through coaching, training, and mentorship, we work to close the racial wealth gap and empower agents to scale and grow their businesses.

• Building a Network: Our multidisciplinary network of agents focuses on shared success, representation, and access to opportunities that were once out of reach.

Why TBFN Matters
The insurance industry has long been shaped by inequities and systemic barriers. TBFN provides a platform for honest, courageous conversations and actionable solutions that prioritize inclusion and opportunity for Black professionals. With initiatives like one-on-one meetings, educational programs, and wealth-building strategies, we are rewriting the narrative for future generations.

Together, we’re not just creating opportunities—we’re building a legacy.
