The Philosophy
As an entrepreneur and business owner, I have often wondered where you can find the wisdom, the people, the support and the inspiration you need to bridge the gap between suffering and surrendering, between isolation and belonging, or between solutions and success. Well, we believe our philosophy, the E.B.O.N.Y. Principle is a great way to bridge all of those gaps. EBONY is an acronym for empowerment, belief, opportunity, network, and you. By focusing on all of these aspects of business and life, you will create the balance you need to do great things in your business, which translates directly to BIG SUCCESS!
As women, we cannot do it alone; we simply are not designed that way. Nobody succeeds in a vacuum anyway. Even the most brilliant women and the best creators and motivators all have people.
Here in the Big Success Network, you will find…
TEACHERS & MENTORS who will show you the way, help to course correct, and hopefully avoid missteps.
CRUSADERS who will hold you accountable when you most want to bail out or when things just seem to get hard, which inedibly is usually only a heart beat away from our next big move, and you will get the motivation and inspiration you need to continue to act in spite of obstacles.
WOMEN WHO UNDERSTAND who are building their own dreams alongside you, sharing in the emotions, questions, struggles, and triumphs that bond us together.
A SAFE PLACE where you can drop the facade, get real, and grow around genuine, transparent, uplifting relationships ideas, and aspirations without fear of disrespect, degradation or condemnation.
Our Story
This has been something founder, Nicole Thompson, has wanted to do for a long time. She recognized the need for a group where women of color could network, share ideas, generate leads, create amazing results, and grow their businesses in an environment that was understanding, safe, encouraging, and with a group of peers that share similar obstacles. She envisioned the group as being exclusive and inclusive at the same time. Nicole set out to find an already established organization that would provide what she was looking for, but her search came up with no results. So she decided to make it happen herself…and Big Success Network was born.

Founder
Nicole has been in the community and project management industry for over 20 years. After taking classes to learn about creating wealth, she quickly realized that having only one job, one source of income, was not the way to go when wanting to really build a wealth legacy for herself and her family. That is when she realized she needed to create more streams of income. The question was how would she do that. Well she figured it out and today she owns several businesses; HOA management company, personal image and style consulting, marketing, and legal document preparing. Although all of these are totally different and seem to not really go together in other people’s eyes, she makes it work as each one of these businesses feeds all sides of her personality and passions. It’s the perfect marriage! Since she is an expert in time management and project management, her time gets divided seamlessly amongst her business passions and nothing slips through the cracks. In creating and growing these businesses she wanted a place to go for inspiration and motivation, and the typical networking organizations just were not cutting it for her. She also realized she wanted to surround herself with more like minded women of color like her because they share a deep understanding for the special set of obstacles that women like her can experience in business.
