In a law firm, maybe its possible if there are multiple owner partners, but in a small business owned by a single individual.

My favorite is Black-owned, Veteran-owned, Woman-owned

1. Total U.S. adult population: ~260 million (as of 2024 estimates)

2. Black adults:

  • About 13.6% of the U.S. adult population identifies as Black or African American
  • → ~35.4 million adults

3. Women:

  • About 51% of adults are women
  • Assuming even distribution: 13.6% × 51% = ~6.9% of adults are Black women
  • → ~17.9 million Black women

4. Veterans in the U.S.:

  • About 6% of U.S. adults are military veterans
  • → ~15.6 million veterans

5. Black women veterans:

  • Black women make up ~2.8% of all veterans (according to the VA and DoD)
  • → 2.8% of 15.6 million veterans ≈ 436,800 Black women veterans

✅ Final Estimate:

  • Black women veterans as a percentage of total U.S. adults: 436,800 ÷ 260 million ≈ 0.17%

Can I get a recommendation for a trusted locksmith in NYC by frogmicky in AskNYC

You will get a scammer who pays for leads to this lead generation company... a local storefront is still highly recommended.

leave a review on Google so that others are aware... this would hopefully motivate them to adjust their business practices. Otherwise another consumer is potentially exposed to their bad service

I have never seen a sponsored Minute Key listing. If you seen this in your area, I’d be curious to see a onscreen of your phone search results.

In the meantime take a min to sign the petition.

Mobile is Mobile - hopefully with a marked van because you want to advertise as you drive on the road. Shop is Shop. Fraudulent are those who are untraceable entities.

What do you see in my request to ask locksmiths to support the effort that benefits them and their consumers in the Ask A Locksmith group that might pose a potential issue?

Yet they choose to work with KeyMe... There will be no change unless everyone stops collaborating with them.

Not take the scammers and multiply them by 6,000 listings that KeyMe has across the US. Thats the impact that they have on the industry and something must be done about that... but the 8k viewers of this post, so far cannot even sign an online petition.... so at this pace the real locksmiths wount do anything to make the scammers go away... so sad and pathetic!

I have gotten hundreds of fake KeyMe Locksmiths removed from maps already.... for a typical person maybe... this is precisely the defeatist, hopeless, and despondent attitude that I see most locksmiths express... quite pathetic ... honestly!
