Minority Qualifications

Media On The Run, Inc. is a Minority/Women Owned Business with certifications from the Chicago Minority Business Development Council (CMBDC) and Women Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC).

CMBDC and WBENC perform a comprehensive background investigation prior to certification to ensure the integrity of the program. Having been certified by the CMBDC, Media On The Run is also recognized by the National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC). The NMSDC provides a direct link between minority-owned businesses and most of America’s largest publicly owned, privately-owned and foreign-owned companies, as well as universities, hospitals and other buying institutions.

Why is Supplier Diversity Important?

-Organizations have a diverse customer base. By showing support for the demographic groups of its customers, an organization hopes to strengthen its appeal to them.  Studies show that female consumers are more likely to buy from a company using a woman-owned supplier.  Diverse suppliers can act as powerful advocates for the company sourcing from them, especially since some diverse suppliers are politically active in their communities.

-Organizations want to demonstrate social responsibility. Many voluntarily use a diverse supplier base because the leadership feels that it is the right thing to do for society and the community.

-Diverse suppliers bring added skill sets that prove to be tactically advantageous in a global marketplace.

As a certified Minority/Women Owned Business, Media On The Run will provide our clients with the same customer service and competitive pricing you’ve come to know and expect. Our clients will enjoy the additional benefits from doing business with minority-owned Media On The Run.

Sincerely,

Lissette Herin
