PRE REGISTRATION
- One Community
- One Solution
- One Future
The African American Connection (AAC) pre-registration program is not the same as the official AAC enrollment system, and therefore is not subjected to the same terms, conditions, benefits or even guidelines as a fully enrolled AAC Certified Member Merchant. The purpose of the AAC pre-registration program is to serve as a pre-screening process for prospective applicants desiring to participate within the AAC Member Merchant marketing program, but prior to obtaining the full enrollment status, pursuant to certain required qualifications.
The AAC pre-registration process involves attending and completing a scheduled AAC online training webinar, designed to train and guide prospective AAC Member Merchant enrollees through the required operational procedures necessary to become a Certified AAC Member Merchant.
The African American Connection is a membership based entity and all membership fees are based at $29.95 per month, per AAC member merchant.
The pre-registration fee is refundable, however, ONLY prior to your pre-registration webinar date, which you will receive upon completing the pre-registration application. Be sure to check your email, as well as your Spam / Junk mail folders upon registering, to obtain your mandatory webinar date. If you request a refund before this date, your registration fee will be refunded in full. Any request for a refund after your scheduled webinar attendance date, will not be refundable.
The AAC pre-registration fee is use to fund all programs such as training and support, provided by the AAC to train and qualify all pre-registered AAC applicants to become Certified AAC Member Merchants operating within the AAC online Shopping Mall, under the terms and conditions outlined by the African American Connection. The pre-registration fee is primarily used for the aforementioned purpose, which also includes your initial webinar.
The successful applicants in the AAC pre-registration program must be able to commit themselves to the completion of building and stocking their respective stores with all the features that qualify their store as ‘ready for business’ which will be determined by the AAC.
The store must be in compliance with the AAC terms and conditions, ready to sell their goods or services and ready to serve their customers to the highest standards of customer service.
We currently have plans to fully launch the entire AAC Marketing and Shopping platform throughout our collective communities in February 2021, although this is subject to change. It is our goal and desire to have many AAC pre-registered Member Merchants trained, with fully functional stores, ready to do business by the first week of February 2021.
There is no other cost to be paid by the pre-registered AAC applicant during the pre-registration program. However, once the AAC is opened to the public, all certified AAC pre-registered applicants will become fully certified AAC Member Merchants subject to all of the benefits and support as outlined for all Certified AAC Member Merchants. Therefore, upon the public launch date, all Certified AAC Member Merchants will be subject to the monthly AAC Member Merchant fee of $29.95 per month.
YES! The African American Connection is a membership driven program and the monthly fee of $29.95 will be applied to all AAC Member Merchants who choose to maintain a presence as a Certified AAC Member Merchant within the AAC Online Marketing Community.
The soul purpose of the AAC is to create the most viable and sustainable pathway to financial freedom for its members, through a uniquely engineered online marketing community, that provides the consumers throughout our collective communities, with a first of its kind, convenient one-stop turnkey solution, designed to connect the $1 Trillion Dollar, and growing, purchasing power, of our extensive consumer market to the numerous, quality merchants throughout our collective communities, who are now able to sell their goods or services, all within a single, collective marketing and shopping platform
YES! In fact, unless you are already in business with a product or service, it is the mission of the AAC to train and support the first regiment of retail Certified AAC Member Merchants with developing drop ship stores only, however, graduating these merchants eventually to become Certified Retail Merchants.
The AAC was created, developed and financed by Charles and Norma Bowlds, who have made the decision to make the AAC a shopper and merchant majority owned company, with a 60% ownership position maintained by the AAC Member Merchants and supporting Shoppers, and with investors owning 30% of AAC, while Mr. and Mrs. Bowlds retain only 10% for their future inheritors. That’s the objective and goal of the AAC, those who value, patronize, shop and support the vision will ultimately own it. The vision, mission and design of the AAC is based upon the principle of shared, collective wealth
Groups and/or “Community Based Institutions” will be enrolled FREE of charge into the AAC online marketing community, and will be trained in separate one-on-one webinars, which are designed specifically for our community-based institutions. However, those community based institutions that enroll into the AAC Community Based Institutio Program, can assign a representative within their organization to attend the AAC Member Merchant Training Program.
No! The youth program is instituted under a parental approval and guidance process, and will not begin until the official public launching of the AAC online marketing community.

In an era where sites such as Amazon.com, Google and e-bay are widely celebrated....An African American pioneer has finally burst on the scene to show the world that we too can do it. These are the kind of innovations in commerce we need in order to make the next century, the AFRICAN CENTURY.
If we as African Americans have ever held a sincere desire to find real economic success, prosperity, and more control of over our financial destiny that search has ended with The African American Connection
I thank Mr. Bowlds for supporting the dreams of young African American entrepreneurs from Biz Kids. The African American Connection has given my students ages 6-18 years old a vehicle to showcase their products and services. The students enjoy personalizing their website and are anticipating the income that will be generated by online shoppers. The Biz Kids enjoy emailing their web pages to family and friends.
WHOOOO! THIS SITE IS INCREASINGLY AMAZING BY THE MINUTE! It's a beautiful spring like day outside I've really got to fight myself to get away from AAC! This is absolutely AWESOME!!!!!
I am proud to be among one of the first member merchant of The African American Connection. I have always adhered to the believe that we could and should do more to participate in our own economic welfare, and the AAC system is a quantum leap in that direction.
The African American Connection makes available to African American communities the best sources for our purchasing decisions, through a smartly designed system that connects the purchasing decisions of our collective communities, to the businesses that directly contribute to the overall economic well being of our communities; I highly recommend The African American Connection as one of the best resources ever created for African American entrepreneurs!
