BEHIND THE SCENES - Practicing a Sales Pitch for a Game Show! #Uknowadamtsang
Join Adam Tsang and Jim Walker as they practice and spitball ideas off of each other in preparation for their pitch to appear on Buy it Now! -- a show in which entrepreneurs have a limited time to convince the audience to buy into their products! It's a fun, off the cuff "behind-the-scenes" style discussion of two entrepreneurs.
The UKnowAdamTsang podcast spotlights both veteran and budding entrepreneurs -- especially those local to the Savannah/Statesboro region. We aim to inspire and educate business owners, those who are looking to turn their "side hustle" into something more, and those who simply want to peer into the minds of the adventurous risk-takers who have fun stories to share!

The Answer's Simple: Make School Fun! - #UKnowAdamTsang Podcast
Felecia Prince came from a family of teachers and thought she might want to branch out and do something else. And while she dabbled in various things from marketing to fashion design. But she would ultimately find that teaching provides a creative outlet for all of her passions, and to create an incentive system that got kids of all stripes participating in the classroom. This is a great listen for parents, educators and team leaders on incentivizing others.
