We had the good fortune of connecting with Roketa Johnson and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Roketa, can you share the most important lesson you’ve learned over the course of your career?
The most important lesson my business has taught me is that customization is key: there is no one-size-fits-all solution in business consulting. Every entrepreneur and business is different, so tailoring your advice and recommendations to meet each client’s specific needs is paramount.
What should our readers know about your business?
Opulence is the premier destination for entrepreneurs looking to launch, build or scale their business. What sets us apart from others is that we offer vetted resources to our clients and a clear to path to execution to help our clients reach their goals. I am most excited about our business credit program offering. So many minority entrepreneurs struggle finding the right tools and resources to help them secure funding or begin building business credit.
I got to where I am business-wise today by trial and error and realizing that networking is the number one key to success. 9 times out of 10 someone has already went through a problem or issue that I was trying to achieve so networking and asking questions really saved me tons of time, because of this Opulence has been able to thrive at lightning speed.
If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I’d like to thank the The Nasdaq Entrepreneurial Center for their Milestone Circles community program. Through my cohort I was able to connect with other like-minded women entrepreneurs from across the country and build my network. The milestone circles toolkit really helped me gain deeper insights into my vision, how to prioritize my critical business milestones and how to gain clarity around my action plan for success.
