From there we discuss marketing and market research for small businesses. Marketing and advertising are in the same family, but they are completely different things. The fundamentals of marketing should always be related to your potential customer’s journey. This episode is not just for established dreamchasers, but also for those that are just about to launch.

Demishia Samuels joins the show to discuss how to increase your worth inside and outside of corporate america.

There is a thin line between belief and success that every dream chaser walks while entertaining the idea of quitting their 9-5 job and focusing on their passion. It's often seen as the holy grail of entrepreneurship to quit our jobs in corporate america and focus full time on growing our businesses, but there is a flip side to that coin.

Demishia is a highly accomplished income strategist, STEM professional and success coach who is teaching others exactly how to identify their key skills within their jobs, then effectively leverage those skills so that they can pivot, and profit. If you have a side hustle and can’t seem to figure how to grow it into a legitimate option for your exit strategy…

If you ever wondered if the saying “your gifts will make a way for you” is true, Brownie Blendz is living proof that it is. As a staple in the bay area barbershop scene, Brownie has successfully leveraged his skill set, passion for his craft, and unmatched vision to become one of the most influential barbers in the country. The now infamous Blendz has consistently worked on his craft which took him from cutting friends and family on the front porch, to fading international superstars on the set of HBOs’ “The Shop”.

His celebrity clientele is a who’s who of NFL and NBA champions and All-stars. Alongside business partner Joseph Cannon, they have provided opportunities for many barbers and hairstylists across the bay area through their “KJ’s Barbershop” franchise/chain model. This episode is special because we officially brought the podcast to the barbershop and perhaps more importantly learned about the non-sexy side of being a celebrity barber. Brownie discussed why talent alone isn’t enough, the people skills required to get in the door, and the leadership, restraint and professionalism that it takes to remain in the room. Take a listen, as Brownie grabs the 1 blade against the grain.
