1:47 – One question the team never gets asked, but they should

Hint: It’s not glamorous. 

We also discuss how to network and keep up business relationships in a way that doesn’t feel sleezy. 

 

6:34 – What advice would Troy and Rashad give a new entrepreneur? 

  • Consistency is key
  • Make sure your idea is scalable 
  • Have another way to make money at first. You’ll need multiple streams of income to take pressure off the beginning phases. 
  • Relatedly: Try not to come in with a large amount of debt. 
  • Find mentorship. Find someone who’s successful in the space you’d like to be in, and network with them. If you don’t become a formal mentee, you can still read their work and watch their career and learn from it. 

 

10:15 – Understanding your competition

Some people don’t want to stand out from a crowd. Often what’s different about you and your business can become your key selling point – but you need to know what your competition is offering so you can take advantage of your differentiators. 

This boils back down to taking imperfect action. You’re not going to have the perfect product or setup for your audience, but if you’re willing to adapt and share your process, you’ll learn a lot and earn loyalty from your customers.
