BaronSeries.com Wins Again, Claiming Three 2008 Black Web Awards

National best-selling author and business coach William R. Patterson is helping thousands of entrepreneurs and investors around the world build wealth with his Baron strategies for financial independence.

BaronSeries.com continues its 2007 winning streak, capturing three 2008 Black Web Awards: Best Wealth-Building Site; Best Male Author Site; and Best Lecturer, Speaker and Workshop Site.

In 2004, William R. Patterson, national best-selling co-author of "The Baron Son," launched BaronSeries.com. He developed the Web site for The Baron Solution Group to deliver coaching and consulting services to executives, entrepreneurs, investors and success-minded individuals.

The Baron Solution coaching and training program is operating in one of the most difficult financial and political environments in over two decades. Yet Patterson and his team have been able to increase the revenues of clients twenty percent on average—and in some instances, double revenues in less than one year. Patterson achieves these results by applying The Baron Solution proprietary method, which includes over 100 business and financial accelerators. By helping clients scale their businesses, Patterson has also positioned them to raise millions of dollars in private equity and venture capital funding.

"Many small businesses and individuals are in dire straights as a result of losing access to capital or their life savings in the stock market crash of the late 90's," Patterson says. "Others face the prospect of losing their homes as a result of the recent sub-prime lending crisis or are simply looking for realistic and ethical ways to accelerate their success. We are just glad to be able to help people."

Patterson was recently honored during the Founder's Day celebration for Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Incorporated for his work teaching financial skills to students in urban schools and teen mothers. "We have made great strides in improving the success rates of small businesses, but we are also committed to youth programs and community service," Patterson says. He conducts The Baron Solution national pro bono youth workshop series to help children develop financial and business skills that are not taught in school. He also developed a personal finance and entrepreneurship curriculum for K–16 students.

Over 650,000 votes from 130 countries were cast to decide the 2008 Annual Black Web Awards winners. In 2007, Patterson won a Black Web Award for Best Lecturer, Speaker and Workshop Site.

"To be recognized for excellence in three diverse categories is a great honor," Patterson says, "particularly when nominated among esteemed industry peers such as Dr. Michael Eric Dyson, Dr. Randal Pinkett [winner of Donald Trump's "Apprentice"], Iyanla Vanzant and Black Enterprise magazine."

Black Enterprise praised Patterson's work with a glowing review of "The Baron Son," calling it "a compelling way to reveal how wealth-building strategies apply to everyday living." Patterson has also received endorsements from notable business leaders such as billionaire Founder of Black Entertainment Television, Bob Johnson, management expert, Tom Peters, and Chief Marketing Officer of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc., John L. Jacobs.

Prior to winning three 2008 Black Web Awards, BaronSeries.com was ranked as the number one Business Motivational Speaker Website by Ranking.com.
