I am a dancer, choreographer, model, and entrepreneur. My services not allow display great dancing and technique. But I also choreograph and teach other artist how to expand their culture by building upon artistry and musicality.
Be warned this is not a person you should not seek to do business with. Literally cancelled less than 24 hours before major company event.
Full disclosure, there was an issue with our accounting office not getting her deposit mailed to her on time but part of that delay was caused by her attempting to do business under her business name that is no longer legally registered. Her w-9 was flagged when our accounting offices ran the EIN she provided.
Knowing that this was a big company event and people were expecting her, I tried to work things out by giving her a company credit card, but she refused and only would accept payment through Zelle. I explained that I do not know of many/any larger corporations that pay through a Zelle account… maybe a wire transfer but not Zelle.
Bottom line is , I think she decided at the last minute she didn’t want to do it and this was a convenient excuse for her. When I threatened to let others know about her shady business practices she proceeded to called me a “B****” and went into a full
tirade as I was hanging up.
I really wish I would have paid attention to all the red flags but I thought I was trying to support a young minority business owner …who regrettably in the end did not deserve it.
Fortunately, our event was still a success but felt it necessary to warn others, who may not end up being so lucky.
Response from ShonniJ:
Thank you for your review. The fact of the matter is that as a young black entrepreneur I work as an independent contractor. My business is 100% legitimate and in fact many companies pay via Zelle because it will be made public and on the record. Currently my business is registered as a sole prop. which is what I do business under which requires my personal social.
To clear things up I did not receive my deposit in time. I waited 1 month after said delivery date and even gave the client the night before the gig to pay.
Lastly, with all due respect this entire review is illegitimate and a lie regarding my business and character. Anyone who's truly trying to support a black business would not go out the way to leave such a review.
I pray that God blesses you in all that you do.
My business will continue to strive with or without 1 nasty review out of 100's of positive reviews.
Thank you :)
