On this episode of Success Theory, I interviewed my friend and mentor, Kevin Youngblood. Kevin and his wife, Margie, have been married for 34 years and have 3 grown children. In their early years of marriage, Kevin served our country in the military in Operation Desert Shield and Operation Desert Storm where he earned 8 medals. He was Mayor of Carl, Georgia, and started and operated several businesses, the most recent being Odysseyware, Inc, an educational software company focused on reaching at-risk students. This company was founded in 2001 and sold to a Venture Capital Fund in 2016 for over $100 million. For the last four years, Kevin has been investing in the Phoenix startup community by way of coaching or financial investment. He has served on the Advisory Board at the Arizona State University Center for Entrepreneurship, coaching MBA candidates as they pitch their ideas to investors. Most recently, he’s been helping Grand Canyon University launch their Canyon Ventures program – an innovation center for startups in the valley – where he serves as the Entrepreneur in Residence. The goal is to help these businesses grow from a napkin idea to sustainable revenue as quickly as possible. Through this process, Kevin realized that a lot of startup founders struggle with selling their ideas, selling their products, and getting in revenue. To respond to this need, he launched Youngblood Works, which provides sales training and mentoring to startup founders and executives, with the goal of preparing business leaders with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to generate sustainable revenue. If you're an entrepreneur looking to gain an edge in sales and business development, this episode is for you.

On this episode of Business Theory, I had the opportunity to sit down with John Danes, Founder of 99Media, and the host of the No Excuses Show, a top 100 business podcast. Growing up, John Danes was always a young hustler. He was introduced to the world of selling and flipping items at 7 years old, selling golf balls and coupon books. John always wanted more out of life and to make a legacy for himself.
At the age of 16, he was expelled from high school for bad behavior and grades, then transitioning into homeschooling. He became incredibly fascinated with personal finance and the world of business. While working his part-time job, he was introduced into the world of buying and reselling sneakers, and started his first company, “HypeBoost”. While doing that he was introduced to his first mentor and realized he wanted to go into online business.
As a senior in high school, he took the leap and started 99MEDIA, a digital agency helping businesses grow online. While living in Minnesota at the time, he wanted to find a way to make connections and meet other like-minded individuals. So, he started The No Excuses Show, which is now a Top 100 Business Podcast. At the same time, he started building his personal brand. Now, he is a serial entrepreneur, writer, and public speaker. If you get any value out of this episode, please subscribe and leave a review!
