    He Has His Plan All Figured Out - The Hot Seat w/ David Shands #77

    Frank shared his story of starting an academic and sports training program just before COVID-19 hit, which unfortunately had to be shelved due to the pandemic. During the lockdown, he pivoted to creating a jerk chicken recipe, which gained some traction locally. However, as the world reopened, he found himself needing to return to work due to financial constraints, despite the initial success of his food venture. Throughout our conversation, it became clear that Frank has a lot of passion and drive, but perhaps lacks a clear direction and consistent focus. We debated the merits of putting all your eggs in one basket versus having multiple backup plans. Frank believes in diversifying interests to mitigate failure, while I argued that going all-in on a single pursuit can develop a crucial ability to fully commit and excel. 👉🏾 Join the Morning Meetup - http://www.themorningmeetup.com⁣ Apply to be on the HOT SEAT: https://hotseatsp.com/apply Subscribe to the Hot Seat on YouTube: / @hotseatsp On Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...

    How To Make Customers Buy From You! - The Hot Seat w/ David Shands #76

    On this episode of The Hot Seat, I had an eye opening conversation will Chelz Bowen who is the owner and operator of "Top It Off Fun" Funnel Cakes Food truck. She's leaving money on the table. This talk consisted of Chelz realizing that her business would benefit from having very forward approach to her potential customers instead of waiting for them to come to her. Even though the quality is top notch, she can also make tweaks such as figuring out ways to speed up her ordering process. She is currently making these adjustments and we hope to see an increase in business the near future. 👉🏾 Join the Morning Meetup - http://www.themorningmeetup.com⁣ Apply to be on the HOT SEAT: https://hotseatsp.com/apply Subscribe to the Hot Seat on YouTube: / @hotseatsp On Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...

    This Entrepreneur's Voice Will Save Lives Once He Does This!!

    In this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Vonzail, a luxury event designer and the founder of "I'm the Voice of Suicide." We delved into his journey, both in his professional life and his deeply personal mission to bring awareness to suicide prevention. Luxury Event Design Business Vonzail shared his background in luxury event design, a passion he inherited from his grandmother. He started his own company, Lvo Creative, in 2019 after working for BET and Radio One. Despite his talent and passion for design, Vonzail admitted that his business hasn't been financially successful, averaging around $10,000 to $15,000 annually. He revealed his struggle with charging clients appropriately, which has hindered his business growth. I'm the Voice of Suicide Vonzail's non-profit initiative, "I'm the Voice of Suicide," is a deeply personal project born from his own experiences with suicide attempts. He has attempted suicide four times, each under harrowing circumstances, and has been dealing with the aftermath and ongoing therapy. Despite having the idea for over a decade, he only recently registered the trademark and is in the early stages of establishing it as a 501(c)(3) non-profit. 👉🏾 Join the Morning Meetup - http://www.themorningmeetup.com⁣ Apply to be on the HOT SEAT: https://hotseatsp.com/apply Subscribe to the Hot Seat on YouTube: / @hotseatsp On Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...
