ILPS4e9- Build, Fund and Launch Your Product; Donteacia Seymore Explains How To Keep Moving Forward With Your Product to Make a Successful Business
About Donteacia
...and then the money dried up. I didn't have a plan in place to get new business. Hell, I didn't know how to get new business. In all honesty I didn't quite understand what it was I did exactly...and neither did anyone else.
I created and organized events and raised money via sponsorship to pay for them.
I would analyze the health of non-profits and small businesses and create strategic plans for them.
I would do freelance work raising money for organizations.
I built websites. I was hired to do some political consulting on a few campaigns. I updated resumes and built out LinkedIn pages.
As you can see, I was all over the place. My single goal was to keep the lights on, and at times, even that was a struggle.
...but I survived, and sometimes even thrived.
Fast forward to 2013 and I have this brilliant idea and decide I would create this awesome new product and launch it to the world. After quite a few stumbles and some major successes, I was able to exit that company in the black. I have gone on to coach hundreds of entrepreneurs, raise over $1M for their products and services, launch Founders Brunch, a bi-annual brunch where founders come from all over the country to fellowship around entrepreneurship, and become a start up mentor for the State of Florida.
I've also launched a new program to help inventors build and launch their products.
...and sometimes I write the occasional engaging article for The Huffington Post. To find out more about what I do and to access some free resources, you can visit my website at www.donteaciaseymore.com To schedule a call with a member of our team, go to www.lifebeforethetank.com/talk
