Happy Labor Day from Head Start Biz Solutions.

Labor Day is not just a long weekend. It is a reminder of the people who built this country with their hands, their hours, and their grit — dock workers, tradespeople, business owners, teams, and the entrepreneurs who started with an idea and a lot of late nights.

We work with those people every day. The owner who formed the LLC. The contractor who finally separated personal credit from the business. The family running payroll, books, and taxes while still serving customers. That work matters. That work is the economy.

If you are taking the day off, take it. Rest is part of running well.
If you are still building, we see you too.

From our team to yours — thank you for the labor that makes this country work.
We listen. We understand. We plan.

On this day in 1859, John Merrick was born enslaved in North Carolina.

By the 1890s he owned barbershops in Durham. In 1898 he co-founded North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company with Dr. Aaron Moore and C.C. Spaulding. It became the largest Black-owned firm in the country. In 1908 they helped launch Mechanics and Farmers Bank. Around them: pharmacies, a newspaper, real estate, Lincoln Hospital, what became N.C. Central.

W.E.B. Du Bois and Booker T. Washington both came to Durham to see it. Parrish Street and the Hayti district were a working economy — Black-owned capital serving Black customers because white institutions would not.

That was not unique. Greenwood in Tulsa. Jackson Ward in Richmond. Sweet Auburn in Atlanta. Fourth Avenue in Birmingham. Memphis. Houston’s Third Ward. After emancipation, Black communities built their own banks, hotels, theaters, grocers, and insurance companies on their own streets.

Some of those districts were later destroyed by white supremacist violence. Tulsa in 1921 is the most famous. Others were cut apart later by highways and “urban renewal.” Durham’s Hayti was one of those.

The point is not only what was burned. It is what was built first — in the South, on their turf, in public, with names on the door. BUILD!!!

Sept 7 is Merrick’s birthday. The companies outlived him. The record is still there.

On this day in 1916, Clarence Saunders opened Piggly Wiggly in Memphis — the first self-service grocery store.
Before that, you stood at a counter and told a clerk what you wanted. He built a store where customers walked the aisles, chose the goods, and paid at a register.
Packaging, branding, and the modern supermarket all follow from that idea.
Two days ago it was Google in a garage. Today it’s a grocery store in Tennessee. The calendar is crowded with this stuff. Almost every day, somebody files the papers, opens the door, or tries a simpler way to do an old job. Most of it disappears. A few of those days remake how the world works.

September 4, 1998.

Larry Page and Sergey Brin walked into a California filing office and incorporated Google.

They were still Stanford doctoral students. The company lived in Susan Wojcicki’s garage in Menlo Park. The first real money was a $100,000 check from Sun co-founder Andy Bechtolsheim — written to “Google Inc.” before the corporation even existed. They had to open a bank account just to cash it.

What they actually had was an idea that search should work by authority, not by who paid for placement or stuffed the most keywords. PageRank treated the web like a citation network. That single insight turned a chaotic directory into the default way billions of people find things.

No grand launch. No press tour. Just two founders, cheap hardware, and a belief that organizing information was a bigger problem than anyone in the industry was treating it as.

Twenty-eight years later that garage filing is Alphabet — search, maps, Android, YouTube, cloud, ads, and the infrastructure a large part of the internet still runs on.

Most “overnight” tech stories are not overnight. This one started with incorporation papers, a rented garage, and a ranking algorithm that was better than everyone else’s.

Happy founding day, Google.

Hampton Roads doesn’t run on talk.

It runs on people who show up and deliver.
Port drivers. Couriers. Trades. Counselors. Mechanics.

The ones who keep this region moving.
The work is different.

The setup is not.
If you’re getting it done out here, you need a real foundation:
• Legal business

• EIN

• Website

• Logo

• Marketing

• A real face behind the brand

That’s how you stop looking like a side hustle and start looking like the business this community already depends on.
We’ve been helping Hampton Roads workers build that stack since 2008.
We listen. We understand. We plan.

#757 #1099

08/31/2026

Hampton Roads runs on healthcare. Hospitals, labs, pharmacies, dialysis, and VA clinics need drivers every day.
Medical courier work is 1099: you set the hours, keep the mileage write-offs, and earn more than typical food-app runs. Local contractors advertise $50–$400+ a day depending on routes. No special medical courier license. Clean record, insurance, and short HIPAA training get you on the road.
What most drivers skip is the business side. Head Start Biz builds that for you: Virginia LLC, EIN, bank setup, bookkeeping, and taxes so April doesn’t wreck the profit.
Drive the 757. We’ll form the company.

People in Hampton Roads are skipping CDL school and still getting into trucking.
A 24–26 ft box truck under 26,000 lbs GVWR does not require a CDL. That is why this path is exploding here.
Why it fits 757:
• Amazon fulfillment + delivery stations in Virginia Beach, Suffolk, Chesapeake, and Hampton
• Port of Virginia freight that still needs the last local hop
• Furniture, appliances, retail, and military-adjacent deliveries
• Home most nights if you stay regional
Realistic picture for one truck, once you are established: often $8K–$14K/month gross, with many operators taking home about $4K–$8K/month after fuel, insurance, and the truck payment. Year one is usually leaner while you build lanes.
The truck is only half the business. You still need the LLC, credit, funding, insurance, and a plan.
We help Hampton Roads owners get that part right.

Stop hunting for cute write-offs.
The one most entrepreneurs actually use — and use hard — is the car.
If you drive to clients, job sites, vendors, the bank, or to grab supplies, those miles are a business expense. In 2026 that’s 72.5¢ a mile for the first half of the year and 76¢ a mile after July 1.
10,000 documented business miles ≈ $7,400 off your taxable income.
What does NOT count: the drive from your pillow to a regular office. That’s commuting. The IRS has heard that one.
What DOES count: a simple log. Date. Where. Why. Miles.
Haircuts and facials? Almost never.

The car you already use to run the business? That’s the one.
Don’t guess the gray areas. Get the deductions that hold up.

Can an entrepreneur write off a facial or sugar wax?

Honest answer: almost never.

Looking like the CEO is part of the job. The IRS still calls most grooming a personal expense — even if you booked it before a pitch, a launch, or content day.

What you can do is stop guessing.

Head Start Biz helps entrepreneurs keep the write-offs that actually hold up, clean up the books, and make sure the benefits you qualify for don’t get left on the table.

Then go get the glow that matches the brand.
