Many are not aware that in addition to Dance being one of the youngest women in the beauty industry, she is a mother, wife, and a boss lady in the boardroom. Dance was responsible for directing the relaunch of Strength of Nature’s professional hair care brands Elasta QP, African Pride, Mega Growth Profectiv and Beautiful Textures.
How excited were the media partners of Strength of Nature and African Pride, moguls Munson Steed and Bernard Bronner, to be invited to Bentonville, Arkansas, and share in this celebration? “Let’s just say we couldn’t ask for a better brand to be affiliated with and a class act like Walmart, who by the way really knows how to make the media feel welcome, and especially knows how to throw a party!” said Munson Steed, CEO of Steed Media Group, publisher of rolling out.
This was an ingenious way for Dance to help spread the word nationally about this wonderful event that takes place in Bentonville annually. Congrats to the NAACP Image Award recipients for 2015.
