Wealth-Building Made Simple episodes

  • Episode 115: "Winners surround themselves with winners"
    "You'll only go as far as the 'brothas' you talk to for no reason"  
    This was advice given to Curtis Jackson (AKA "50 Cent") by his grandfather as a child and it's a quote I have thought about often since my friend shared it with me a few years ago.
    Mr. Johnny Wallace, CEO of Ameritex Vending, also believes in that principle and has used it build a very successful business.
    This episode I ask him to walk me the process of how he went from starting with just 2 vending machines to 700 vending machines while also becoming a real estate investor.

    "Are you on track to retire comfortably?"
    34 min
  • Episode 114: "What is venture capital?"
    Way back in the day, just about the only way you could get money to start your new business (outside of family and friends) was through a bank.  
    For centuries, banks have been the dominant financial intermediaries that provided money to new and existing businesses.  
    That's changing as more and more wealthy investors are putting their money into venture capital and private equity as a way to invest into other business ventures.  
    In episode, I speak with the CEO of Impact House, Benjamin Vann about:
    What is venture capital
    What types of businesses are VC firms looking for
    How women and minority owned businesses can get a bigger piece of the pie
    Why there's not as much venture capital money in Texas as there is in NY and California
    ...and more!

  • Episode 113: "How to build your own media company"
    High profile victims of businesses (and people) who knew how to better sell their products and services on the internet:
     
    Borders Bookstore
    Barnes and Noble (dying a slow death)
    Blockbuster
    Taxi’s
    Sears
    JCPenney
    Toys R Us
    Hollywood
    Malls all over America
    Hillary Clinton
     
    ...And the destruction is just getting started.  
    The businesses who are most exposed are small local businesses.  
    There are an unlimited amount of tech savvy entrepreneurs who are using the internet to outsell their local competitors and are slowly putting the businesses who are still marketing like it’s 2002 out of business.  
    Just the like the high profile businesses above, they don’t even see it coming and by the time the feel the pinch for real...it’s going to be too late.
    On this episode, Chris Ross (owner of Eight Digit Media) and I get together for a special episode to answer common questions we both have been asked about marketing, branding, and selling on the internet.  
    Questions Answered:
    Where do i start?  There’s so much out there I need to do?
    Do I need a podcast?
    How do I set up one?
    How do you get qualified leads?
    How do I grow my followers?
    Which platform?
    Where do I find the money?
    How do I get sales fast?
    I do get current customers to buy more from me?

  • Episode 111: "How Candice got Beto O'Rouke to come to Desoto Texas"
    The reason a small minority of people (who in many instances DO NOT represent the majority of the people in their views) control what goes on in cities, counties, and states is because there is small voter turnout in non presidential and local elections.   
    I believe that is changing thanks to the internet and a rising group of young politically active men and women around the country focused on forcing their seat at the table in their local communities.  
    Candice is one of those people. 
    There are few people I've seen locally work harder than Candice to get people who normally don't vote to get out out and vote.
    We discussed:
    How she got political superstar Beto O'Rouke to come to Desoto, Texas and be on her YouTube show "Candid with Candice"
    Why changing parental leave policies are important for attracting and retaining the best employees
    Why people still underestimate Trump's chance of winning the 2020 presidential election
    How she balances a family, work, and being active in her community
