Google held their first Black and Latinx Publishers Summit last December, a virtual event designed to provide a community for Black and Latinx publishers, creators, and web developers to come together. Creators from diverse backgrounds gathered to discuss digital advertising, growing your audience and maximizing your earning potential. I led a 25min session themed "Empowered Entrepreneurship''.
There were many takeaways from the summit including Sandra Garcia’s suggestion which focused on having a brand that stays consistent across multiple platforms.

Through this, you become a reliable content curator, lure in more collaborative deals, and legitimize your brand.
