  • Ricky Miller III, CEO of Carbonadi Vodka - Entrepreneur Podcast Network – EPN

    Ricky Miller, CEO and Co-Founder of Carbonadi Vodka, an ultra-premium vodka company based in Southern California joins Enterprise Radio.
    Listen to interview with host Eric Dye & guest Ricky Miller discuss the following:

    * Where did you start your career?
    * What was your first business as an entrepreneur?
    * Have you always been interested in the marketing of beverages? Specifically spirits?
    * What drives your passion as a business owner/entrepreneur?
    * Tell us about your role as CEO of the Carbonadi brand & What made you want to start Carbonadi?
    * Why did you want to develop the brand in Italy?
    * What makes Carbonadi different? Please tell us about your unique filtration process?

    Richard Miller III is the CEO of the House of Carbonadi, overseeing brand strategy, strategic partnerships, and growth into additional markets. Miller’s professional path began in the world of football after playing for Fresno State during college, where he went on to play with different arena football teams before getting the itch to go into business on his own.  Possessing a fierce natural force as an innovative thinker, he had no choice but to fulfill his destiny as an entrepreneur. Miller launched his beverage marketing career dabbling in the creation of a vitamin D water for athletes, followed by co-founding the 8 Hour Snooze, a 2oz sleep shot that was made available in GNC and 7-Eleven. With Richard’s love for beverage marketing and his fascination with the science of luxury marketing, creating a luxury spirit such as Carbonadi was inevitable.
    Realizing the void in the ultra-premium vodka space and the lack of trade up options, Miller geniusly thought to incorporate Italian wheat into the beverage making process as it was unique and wildly under-utilized. With luxury in mind at all times, the idea of using rare carbonados or “Black Diamonds” for the filtration method was a perfect fit for the brand allowing the liquid spirit to specifically to be sipped and enjoyed by itself due to these innovative and game changing filtering, smoothening techniques.
    When Richard is not out personally marketing the Carbonadi brand among celebrities, influencers and various industry executives, he collaborates on product development for additional brands in a myriad of fields. Although overall, he loves to relax by reading and spending time with his wife and son.

  • Taking Care of You - Entrepreneur Podcast Network – EPN

    Everyone who knows you knows that you’re akin to superman and superwoman. How does this magnificent creature do it? they think of you. You get stuff done that no one else can. You juggle more tasks than a trained circus performer. You give and give, all day–to kids, spouse, and/or job. You might win the most-valuable-player award, but you’re dog tired.

    Some of the satisfaction in life comes from a job well done. But what you might need to remember is that sometimes, satisfaction also comes from a job not done.

    There’s no sin in slowing down, especially since experts say that reducing stress can greatly enhance your life satisfaction, and even length of life. Since you’ve always been the person to give to others and put yourself last, it might be time to stretch those unused muscles and start taking care of you. What can you do to improve your quality of life? You can start by practicing the healthy kind of selfishness.

    We’re all taught as kids to be less selfish, and while this aids us as adults 90% of the time, some of us have taken it too far and forgotten how to meet our own needs. We run around like a chicken with its head cut off, tending to others, while our own needs go unmet. We grow frazzled. We grow irascible. We wonder where the simple joy of giving our time and energy ended up.

    Thankfully, the joy of giving will come right back, once you give yourself a few gifts first. Remember that you are not more important than other people–but you aren’t less important either! Take some time to give yourself a present or two.

    These gifts-to-you will come in a variety of packages. For most of us, we need to take better care of our bodies. We might go to the gym and few times a week and even eat well, but we’re still ignoring persistent health problems. If you struggle with poor sleep, a gift to yourself can be getting tested for sleep apnea, or perhaps cleaning the machine you already have but don’t use enough.  It can be saying yes to more of your impulses, or saying no to others a little bit more. It can be taking a luxurious weekend trip to a spa, turning off all your devices and basking in the silence of zero obligations.

    The ways you take care of yourself will be as unique as you are, but experts all agree that self-care is a necessary part of a fulfilling life. You might meet other people’s needs, but don’t wait for someone else to meet yours! You deserve relaxation and care right now, and you deserve to get it from yourself.

    Don’t wait–invest in you!

  • Why Entrepreneurs Should Be Snoozing on a Relaxing Mattress - Entrepreneur Podcast Network – EPN
    As an entrepreneur, you’re daily faced with making decisions that will either make or break your company. What adds even more to the already existing pressure is the fact that we always have to be at our best to operate optimally.
    To guarantee that you’re always ready to take on tasks that come your way, sufficient rest will be needed. Sleep is one of the ways we get rejuvenated and therefore it’s highly recommended that we get a comfortable and perfect mattress for that.
    Despite their busy schedule, entrepreneurs always need to get enough rest and as such must create and stick to a sleep schedule.
    A Relaxing Mattress Equals Good Sleep
    Good sleep can best be described as high quality, uninterrupted sleep. This is only achievable when we fulfill specific requirements necessary for a good night’s sleep. They include getting a good mattress and creating the right mood and environment for sleep. Entrepreneurs are busy people, so the little time that they get to rest is sacred. Having an uncomfortable mattress will do the opposite of making you relax.
    So, for sound sleep, the bed ought to be:
    Perfect for your sleeping position – that means you won’t strain and end up tossing and turning through the night
    The mattress should be comfortable and adjusts to all your needs; this is important if we are to get a good night’s sleep
    Every businessperson understands the significance of being able to function well, and a good night’s rest is a sure way of attaining this. We can only perform and get clear solutions to problems in our day to day businesses when we’re not fatigued or exhausted because of lack of enough sleep.
    A Relaxing Mattress Equals Good Health
    Our health is significantly affected by the quality of the mattress that we use and at large the quality of our sleep. Considering the fact that we spend approximately a 1/3 of our lives in bed, there’s no debate on whether you should get the perfect mattress or not. Snoozing on a relaxing mattress improves both your mental and physical health.
    Your mental and emotional state is significantly affected when you don’t enjoy some good sleep. Sleep and the quality of our mental health have a close relationship, lack of enough sleep has been known to make people moody and in some cases lead to depression.
    An excellent relaxing mattress conforms to your body shape, can handle your body weight and offers excellent support. Your bed shouldn’t be the reason why you experience back or shoulder pains. This can prevent you from efficiently discharging your duties. A lousy mattress will you keep you up all night because you’ll have strained different parts of your body.
    You’re an entrepreneur, which means that the growth of your business solely depends on the actions that you take and the decisions that you make. Therefore, it’s vital that you’re always at your best both physically and mentally. Snoozing on a relaxing mattress is one way of ensuring that you’re at your best at all times.

  • 3 Tips to Building Your Company With a Business Loan in Singapore - Entrepreneur Podcast Network – EPN
    In business, cash is king. You need a steady flow of it to run your company’s day-to-day operations, buy new equipment, or market your brand. If a lack of funds is stopping you from starting, running, or expanding your business, then it might be time to take out a business loan. But how do you pick the best one for your company?
    Getting a small business loan is not a difficult process, but you have to know what you’re doing. Since the global economic meltdown in the early days of the 2000s, many businesses have faced various issues with financing. The most common one is higher loan interest rates.
    However, business loans have started making a comeback in Singapore. But before rushing out to your local bank, you have to ask yourself some tough questions: are you eligible for a business loan? What should you know before applying for one? And – most importantly – how can you do to make sure you get an approval for one? Here are 3 tips to help you build your company with a business loan:
    Choose the Right Loan Type for You
    The right loan type for your business will depend on what you need the financing for. If you’re looking for capital to start your business, it is virtually impossible to get a loan in the company’s first year. Lenders typically require evidence of steady cash flow to prove that you’ll be able to repay the loan. It might be a good idea to look for other sources of capital in this case.
    Businesses that are already in operation have more financing options. These include SBA loans, business lines of credit, term loans, and invoice factoring. Do your research to find the best loan type for your business.
    Find the Right Lender
    You can get small business loans from a number of different sources. These include banks, non-profit microlenders, and online lenders. Each offers various products that are tailored to certain operational needs such as lines of credit, term loans, and accounts receivable financing. Again, your choice of lender will depend on which option has the best loan products and terms for your business.
    The best business loan in Singapore is the one that offers the lowest annual interest rates. As long as you can handle the regular repayment plan, this is the perfect choice for any small business.
    Get your Documents in Order Early
    As a business owner, you should plan ahead and manage your company’s working capital cash flow efficiently in case you’ll need financing somewhere down the line. It is also important to know your CBS credit score, as well as your current and projected cash flow estimates. This will help you determine if you meet the lender’s minimum annual revenue and can repay the loan.
    Once you’re ready to apply for your loan, it’s time to submit your documents. It is simply good practice to keep your records and business documentation safely. If you’ve done this, then this part should be pretty easy for you.
    Most lenders will require that you submit a number of these documents with your application. Depending on the lender, they might ask for your business and personal bank statements, tax returns, financial statements, and legal documents for your business.

  • How Digital Currencies Are Transforming the Business Landscape - Entrepreneur Podcast Network – EPN
    Today, digital currencies have become popular and they are creating a strong impression on the market. Multiple industries have adopted this technology and the online transactions are integrated into the business models for most startups. In addition, it is reported that there are more than 1400 bitcoin ATMs that are being used across the globe.
    In this article, you’ll learn about how the digital currencies are changing the business environment.
    Cross-border transaction are becoming easy
    Traditionally, making international money transfers takes a significant amount of time and it’s also expensive for businesses. However, digital currencies are changing the situation since you can make payments to any part of the world with a click of a button.
    While this is a relatively new innovation, the benefits can be seen across various industries. But for this to be applied to all industries there needs to be additional development to make it simpler. The sooner this happens; it will be possible for anyone to transfer money across the continents at a fraction of the cost they pay today.
    Over the years, there has been serious lobbying on the formation of a global currency. Digital currencies could be the right candidate to fulfill this goal. As such, there is no need to convert from one currency to another since it bears the same value across multiple countries. Since receiving money through this technology is as simple as sending an email to your friend, businesses are better positioned to handle cross-border transactions.
    They offer stability as a reserve currency in any economy
    Although digital currencies are still new to the economy, they have a demonstrated stability that surpasses the fiat currencies in use today. For instance, in Venezuela, the inflation levels have risen to about 128% in a few months. However, the bitcoin has remained stable and it has been widely used in the country.
    When it’s used as reserve currency vulnerable startups will have a better chance to survive when the economy isn’t doing very well. This issue is prevalent in most third world countries because the governments tend to trigger the inflation in a bid to stay afloat. However, this has a negative effect on most businesses in the countries.
    Since the digital currencies are not regulated by central banks, the quantity limits are highly controlled. In addition, the algorithms controlling the creation of these currencies are designed to curb any attempt of fraudulent creation of the currency.
    Chargebacks have been dramatically reduced
    Chargebacks have been a pain for most businesses in the past. Unethical individuals can buy a product from your business and afterward, they can falsify some information and ask the credit card provider for a refund. As a result, businesses lose lots of money and if you are running a new startup, this can be devastating.
    However, it’s possible to curb this menace by using digital currencies. Basically, the transaction is fully completed the second you have money in your account and there is no middle man to remit the funds to you. While refunds are encouraged when the customer deserves it, you can choose to keep the money if there is anything that points towards fraud.
    Opportunity to venture into new markets
    If you’ve been in business, you probably know that the opportunity to break into new markets comes with difficulties. Since digital currencies are not yet mainstream innovations, businesses that can incorporate this payment method have the opportunity to benefit from the existing population that wants to transact exclusively with digital currencies.
    While some people argue that investing in digital currencies is risky business, this is only due to the possible fluctuations in price as well as the continuous evolution of regul…

  • Myths About Cancer - Entrepreneur Podcast Network – EPN
    Cancer has been around for a very long time. A hundred years ago, your odds for survival were a lot more grim. Nowadays, the odds are much better, especially for certain types of cancer. Doctors and scientists are making amazing discoveries as they try to figure out a way to beat the disease once and for all. There’s still a lot of work to do, but there’s hope for something resembling a cure. That doesn’t mean people know everything there is to know, of course. In fact, the terrifying nature of cancer allows a lot of con artists and swindlers to take advantage of desperate people.
    Natural treatments won’t cure you
    Things like radiation and chemotherapy are really scary to contemplate, even if you know that they might save your life. They can be incredibly hard on the body, and that takes an emotional toll as well as a physical one. No one wants to think about throwing up all the time and losing hair for a treatment that might not even work. However, the odds of conventional treatments helping you are still much higher than alternative treatments. A recent study published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute found that opting for alternative treatments doubled a patient’s risk of death. The risk appears to be even higher among breast cancer patients.
    A naturopath who promises he or she can cure your cancer the “natural” way is full of it. A naturopath also not a doctor or a scientist, since naturopathy is more of a pseudo science than anything. If it helps you feel more at ease, you may be able to employ some natural remedies alongside conventional treatments, but conventional treatments are usually the key to curing the most common types of cancers. It’s invasive and unpleasant, but you stand a way better chance of being alive at the end of it. If you’re scared about the side effects of chemo and radiation, that’s perfectly understandable. Talk to your doctor about finding the best place to get treatment. It should be at a legitimate medical hospital with a long track record of treating cancer patients. Never believe anyone who says he or she can cure your cancer with diet. That’s not a thing. If it were, cancer would have been cured a long time ago. The people who say claim that pharmaceutical companies are actually hiding a cure for cancer from the masses must have forgotten that pharmaceutical companies like money, and a cure for every type of cancer (or even just one type of cancer) would instantly make a lot of people very rich.
    The causes of cancer
    People without any sort of medical training also love to tell people lies about how the patient developed cancer. There’s no real evidence linking artificial sweeteners like aspartame to cancer, and that’s true regardless of how many times your aunt forwards you that one chain e-mail. Dental fillings won’t give you cancer either, so there’s no need to cancel that trip to the dentist.  If you eat a lot of meat, there’s evidence linking that to cancer, so you might want to cut back, even if you don’t go fully vegetarian. It’s also a good idea to exercise and try to live a generally healthy life. But there’s no foolproof way to guarantee you won’t ever get cancer. People want easy answers, but a disease as complex as cancer doesn’t offer many of them.
