Local Business Growth Strategy: How CMH & GRABLIFE Are Helping Entrepreneurs Succeed
If you’re looking for local business growth strategies that actually work, you’re in the right place.
Welcome to Market Master Monday!
If you’ve been following Community Market Hub, you already know — we’re all about helping local vendors, entrepreneurs, and creatives grow their businesses without breaking the bank.
But starting this week, we’re taking it to the next level.
My father, Bennie Keen, and I are officially teaming up to launch something new — a joint venture focused on helping local businesses grow smarter, faster, and more sustainably.
We’ve both been working behind the scenes on different projects for years. Coaching people. Building systems. Creating ways for everyday people to turn an idea into income.
And then it clicked:
👉 We’re stronger together.
💡 Why This Joint Venture Exists
Most vendors and entrepreneurs struggle because they don’t have access to the tools and support needed for local business growth.
Small businesses are the heartbeat of our country. But most of them don’t get the support they need.
We’ve seen it up close.
People are:
- Overwhelmed by tech
- Unsure how to get their first sale
- Wasting time and money on marketing that doesn’t work
It’s not because they’re lazy.
It’s because no one ever taught them how to build a business step by step.
That’s why we’re building a hands-on support system for people just like you.
We’ll help with:
- ✅ Your own mini website (even if you’ve never had one)
- ✅ Getting your products or services listed on CMH
- ✅ Coaching sessions and planning help
- ✅ Better marketing, without needing to become a “social media influencer”
And best of all?
You don’t need to have everything figured out.
We’ll guide you — one step at a time.

🧩 What This Means for You
You’re not just getting another service.
Our goal is to simplify local business growth for anyone — whether you're starting from scratch or scaling up.
You’re getting
- A real person to guide you
- Tools that work for small budgets
- A place to be seen, supported, and heard
We’ll work with
- Freelancers
- Stay-at-home parents
- Side-hustlers
- Retired folks who want extra income
- Anyone trying to build something real
This isn’t about hype. This is about helping you move forward — no matter how small the first step.
🧠 “But What If I’m Not Ready?”
❓ “But I don’t have a product yet…”
No problem. You don’t need to have it all figured out to get started.
Whether you’re just thinking about an idea or experimenting with a hobby — we’ll help you shape it into something real.
We’ve worked with people who started with nothing but an idea in a notebook. If you’re passionate or curious, that’s enough. We’ll guide you step by step.
❓ “I’m not good with tech…”
You’re not alone.
Most of our clients say the same thing when they start — and that’s exactly why we’re here.
We’ll build the setup for you, explain things in simple language, and even handle the technical bits if needed. You’ll never feel lost or stuck — this is meant to make your life easier, not harder.
❓ “I’ve tried before and it didn’t work…”
We get it — that’s frustrating.
But here’s the difference: you’re not doing it alone this time.
We’ll work with you to understand what went wrong and build a better path forward. Sometimes all it takes is the right structure, a support system, and someone who actually gives a damn about your success. That’s us.
❓ “I don’t have a big budget…”
That’s totally fine.
CMH is built for exactly this reason — to give everyday people a shot at building something without needing thousands upfront.
You can start completely free, and as your business grows, you’ll have the option to upgrade when you’re ready. We believe in helping people build sustainable income, not pushing overpriced services.
