Entrepreneurial Role Models:
When business started difficulties overcame:
“The decision to leave corporate America, the comfort and the cushion of corporate America knowing that every two weeks on the 15th and the 30th biweekly I would get a paycheck, to know pretty much what that paycheck was, to know that I would have insurance and all the comforts of what corporate America would bring as well as prestige because often when I worked in a job I was the top producer wherever I went, I just had to do that.

Best Advice to Other Entrepreneurs:
“Hold on, stay the course. And I say that because eight out of ten businesses they fail within five years whatever reason. That can be lack of financing, lack of information, lack of support of course it can be other scenarios that would add to that, but the statistics still remain eight out of ten fail. There are only two remaining out of that group and I believe only one of them will thrive. I want those numbers to change. Hang in there, do something that you haven’t done before, turn up one more stone, take one more class, get one more mentor, watch one more YouTube. That may be the difference of making that number from 8 to 10, to 7 to 10, to 6 to 10, to 2 to 10. We can change the odds just hang in there”…[Listen for More]
