That Moment with Daymond John

It's Monday so it's time for another #MotivationMoment!

 

You'll never believe the game-changing customer engagement advice I stumbled upon. I uncovered some counterintuitive lessons that will make you rethink everything.

For example, you'll be shocked to learn just how much more valuable a chatty customer can be versus one who's quiet. Let's just say the stats don't lie.

Here's another surprise - window shoppers are a secret weapon for savvy brands. I know, it sounds crazy, but hear me out on this one. Turns out aspiration breeds connection. Make someone feel seen, and you gain an advocate for life.

The truth is we crave real human bonds. Treat people as more than transactions, and they'll show loyalty you can't buy.

I learned that it pays to swim against conventional marketing wisdom. The insights in this Motivation Moment completely changed my approach.

You'll discover why quality engagement trounces quantity every single time. And why the so-called "time wasters" hold the key to creating true brand ambassadors.

I uncovered some marketing revelations so powerful, they'll make you rethink everything you thought you knew. You need to hear this!

Lanny Smith is one of those people who you come across and automatically want to root for, and I’m so proud of all that he’s accomplished with his brand Actively Black and prior company Active Faith.

 

Despite his impressive career and successes, he remains so humble. When he came onto That Moment with Daymond John, Lanny was transparent about the struggles that came before the success, how he’s hungry for even more with Actively Black, and how the mission behind the brand comes before anything else. It’s always refreshing and inspiring talking to people who truly emphasize giving back to the community in need over generating sales, and I know listeners will walk away with actionable steps for making their own goals come to fruition.

 

Tune in now to get can’t miss reflections on:

• The life-changing injuries that halted Lanny’s dreams..and how he channeled that into a successful company 

• Why people want to support his brand - and how you can build your own community

• How to respond to people who don’t understand the mission behind his brands

• His experiences working with powerhouses and getting to see his product on people like Barack Obama

• Noticing injustices and taking action, rather than waiting on others to take that first step

• And more!

It's Monday so it's time for another #MotivationMoment!

 

The time is now, entrepreneurs. Stop waiting for the perfect moment - the stars will never fully align. You have an idea burning inside, a passion that wakes you up at night. It's time to stoke that fire and channel your energy into momentum.

Maybe you're afraid of the risks, the inevitable roadblocks and naysayers. But think of the regret you'll feel if you never try. The 15th season of Shark Tank reminds us that business success takes courage. It's a leap of faith that great ideas and tireless hustle will win out.

Imagine looking back years from now, wishing you had trusted yourself and taken that leap. The greatest rewards await those willing to bet on their vision when others won't. Every entrepreneur has heard "no" countless times before their big breakthrough. Prove the doubters wrong through uncompromising effort and belief.

Your idea has lived in your head long enough - time to show the world. Turn your plans into action, your vision into reality. There will be challenges, but staying true to your purpose will pull you through. Pay no mind to the clock or calendar - there are no constraints except those you impose on yourself.

Let the entrepreneurs on Shark Tank, now in its 15th season, inspire you. But understand you don't need investment or approval from others. With passion and grit, you hold the power to make it happen. The only permission you need is from yourself.

So wake up each day ready to outwork yesterday. Fuel yourself with optimism, not doubt. The only difference between you and those at the top is that they refused to quit. Your ascent begins the moment you decide to take the first step. The world awaits your efforts, dreamer - start climbing!

Feeling included and respected at work is key for innovation and engagement. According to a Deloitte survey, 83% of millennials are more engaged when their company fosters an inclusive culture. While you may not be a millennial, we all crave that sense of belonging. Think about the bosses and coworkers you've loved working with most. Chances are, they made you feel heard, valued your input, and welcomed you to brainstorm together. But the coworkers who shut you down and cut you out? Not so motivating. So be the inclusive leader and colleague you wish you had. Make it a point to listen, take ideas seriously, and invite participation. You'll be amazed at how it unlocks creativity and goodwill. People support and innovate for leaders who respect them. Your team will go the extra mile if you go out of your way to make them feel included. So foster that open, collaborative spirit. Get ready to see engagement soar.

The FUBU story continues! I'm back with part two of this raw, uncensored origin tale with my partners Carl and Keith. If you thought part one was wild, just wait - we're pulling the curtain all the way back on our come up in the 90s hip hop scene. From hustling to get our designs in music videos to befriending legends, we're sharing never-before-heard stories of how we leveraged relationships and authenticity to disrupt an industry.

Expect more hilarious memories of us sneaking Keith into studios with his "gifts," building a factory in our Queens house, and getting a surprise visit from ODB that left us shook. We're also keeping it real about beef between partners, underestimating Nelson Mandela, and why we passed on risky opportunities that could have ruined everything. From Puffy to Biggie, you'll hear how we won over giants despite the haters insisting we'd never make it in fashion.

It wasn't always glamorous, but we reflect on crazy moments that capture the essence of entrepreneurship - taking big risks, learning from failures, and staying true to your vision against all odds. Packed with inspiration and hard-earned wisdom from unlikely moguls, this is the unconventional blueprint for how four kids from Hollis built a global phenomenon that still resonates today. So tune in for part two of the unfiltered FUBU files and go behind the music with my brothers to experience our one-of-a-kind Cinderella story firsthand!
