S2 Ep12 Part 2: Watch her Win, New York - Entrepreneurship Pros, Cons and Everything in Between (Part 2). MProper Mimi partnered with Watch Her Win New York President and Founder Obioma Richardson to do a live podcast recording in Chicago, IL. This event was a wonderful hybrid blend of six (6) powerful panelist speakers each sharing their own stories, tips and tricks to being successful entrepreneurs. The virtual portion of the webinar was managed by Rasheeda Frazier of Empowering Greatness, Inc.  Sometimes it takes a tribe to support each other and Mimi Jacks and Rasheeda enjoyed bring a lil bit of NYC to Chicago to support our sisterfriend Obioma with this event because that's what Queens do!
In this second part of the live podcast recording, our panelists (listed below) continued the conversation about the importance of telling your story! They also spoke about their influences and support systems, their best and worst marketing experiences as well as answer questions from the webinar audience.

S2 Ep12 Part 1: Watch her Win, New York - Entrepreneurship Pros, Cons and Everything in Between (Part 1). I just have to say wow! Mproper Mimi partnered with Watch Her Win New York President and Founder Obioma Richardson to do a live podcast recording in Chicago, IL. This event was a wonderful hybrid blend of six (6) powerful panelist speakers each sharing their own stories, tips and tricks to being successful entrepreneurs.

Our panelists (listed below) talked about their paths to making the decision to start on their entrepreneurship journeys as well as how or if they used technology to help them along the way. They touched on having mentors, the lack of stability, figuring out how hard you want to work for yourself, pushing through, and something we love here on the MProper Mimi podcast...telling your story! Whether you are marketing, expanding your brand or giving a pitch to your daughter's school you have to be able to tell your story in a way that connects with people.
