  Speaker 6: was up there, you know, about like five people, but.
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: They all bought it.

• 9:14
  Speaker 5: in your school?
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: Where was you moving these shirts there?
• 9:16
  Speaker 6: So so after the sixteen shirts and I got thirty
• 9:19
  Speaker 6: two shirts, Like after like the five people got these shirts.
• 9:22
  Speaker 6: From the thirty two, I started hitting the barbershop. So
• 9:26
  Speaker 6: I started hitting every single barbershop, every single business and
• 9:31
  Speaker 6: you know, the city of Philadelphia every weekend. This started
• 9:34
  Speaker 6: to be like a thing, like you know how some kids.
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: They do basketball practice every Saturday. This was like my
• 9:40
  Speaker 6: basketball practice. Every every weekend. We would go out the
• 9:44
  Speaker 6: every single barbershop, every single business, and I wouldn't come
• 9:47
  Speaker 6: into the house unless every you know, T shirt was sold.
• 9:51
  Speaker 6: So after it was thirty two shirts, then we were
• 9:53
  Speaker 6: able to move on to I think it was like
• 9:55
  Speaker 6: another batch of shirts, probably like forty shirts. Then we
• 9:58
  Speaker 6: were able to move on the hoodies. So now it's wintertime,
• 10:01
  Speaker 6: so it was in January February. Now it's wonder time.
• 10:04
  Speaker 6: Now people able to get, you know, hoodies and things
• 10:07
  Speaker 6: that they really, you know, wanted, and that's what I
• 10:09
  Speaker 6: wanted in the beginning. I wanted hoodies and long sleeves,
• 10:12
  Speaker 6: but I couldn't afford it. This was my birthday money
• 10:15
  Speaker 6: that I was starting off with. So then I was
• 10:18
  Speaker 6: able to move on to hoodies. And I kept moving,
• 10:21
  Speaker 6: you know, to the barbershops and businesses, and people just
• 10:25
  Speaker 6: started knowing me because everywhere I go, you know, I
• 10:28
  Speaker 6: was rocking Spurgo. It was it was our white and
• 10:32
  Speaker 6: black T shirt and it's a yellow logo that this
• 10:35
  Speaker 6: is our original logo. If you see me in a
• 10:38
  Speaker 6: mall I had on Spurgo, if you see me at
• 10:41
  Speaker 6: my friend's birthday party. I had on Spurgo. I had
• 10:43
  Speaker 6: the same T shirt on for months straight, and it
• 10:46
  Speaker 6: was just getting I wanted to be annoying in people.
• 10:49
  Speaker 6: So then even I was still at probably like three
• 10:52
  Speaker 6: four thousand flowers, people were annoy using who I was.
• 10:56
  Speaker 6: I remember one time we was at the mall True Religion,
• 10:59
  Speaker 6: somebody was he was like screaming like yo, that's like
• 11:03
  Speaker 6: that's him and everything like that, and that was real cool,
• 11:06
  Speaker 6: you know, because I wasn't even like real big on Instagram, Facebook,
• 11:10
  Speaker 6: none of that. People were just noticing who I was
• 11:12
  Speaker 6: just because brand consistency and me staying consistent to you know,
• 11:16
  Speaker 6: my brand. I wasn't wearing nothing else. I'll price for chatter, sneakers,
• 11:21
  Speaker 6: the jeans, but the same T shirt for months straight,
• 11:26
  Speaker 6: and that's how I got it.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: The bill, I like, I like a few things that
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: you said there. The barbershop play, it's interesting because it's
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: the center of influence, especially in a black community amongst men.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: So whose idea was it to target barbershops?
• 11:43
  Speaker 6: So who I did? Was it a target barbershop? That
• 11:45
  Speaker 6: was my mentor, my first mentor, me and Maya Davis
• 11:48
  Speaker 6: so me and Mike Davis, I met, I shot him
• 11:51
  Speaker 6: a d M before I even got my T shirts made,
• 11:56
  Speaker 6: Before I even got my first T shirts, he gave
• 11:59
  Speaker 6: me the course, and the course was just showing you,
• 12:02
  Speaker 6: like what T shirts to get, you know, what T
• 12:06
  Speaker 6: shirts to get, Like what good colors you know for
• 12:09
  Speaker 6: brands like red and yellow? Was like a really you know,
• 12:13
  Speaker 6: good color you know for any type of logo. That's
• 12:16
  Speaker 6: why I'm seeing it like you know, food and a
• 12:19
  Speaker 6: lot of just like red. It's seeing like a lot
• 12:24
  Speaker 6: of different like logos across the board. So that course
• 12:28
  Speaker 6: was just showing me, you know, like a lot of
• 12:30
  Speaker 6: different things. But it was his idea to do the
• 12:34
  Speaker 6: you know, barbershops. He told me to hit you know
• 12:36
  Speaker 6: some barbershops. So I hit every single barbershop, every single business.
• 12:40
  Speaker 6: We even started moving to Camden a little bit because
• 12:43
  Speaker 6: we hit all the barbershops in Philly. So I were
• 12:45
  Speaker 6: type in zip codes like barbershops and one nine one
• 12:49
  Speaker 6: dot dot, and we would hit every single barbershop. Then
• 12:52
  Speaker 6: we started moving to Camden and then that then from
• 12:55
  Speaker 6: there we was doing like then from there we did
• 12:58
  Speaker 6: the online store.
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: I like, I like that you keep saying we because
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: mom was obviously the we and crazing. But you said,
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: it wasn't easy at first, right, you want into our
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: first barbershop and it was.
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: Like, what are we about to do in here?
• 13:11
  Speaker 7: Yeah? We were both scared. Trey was petrified. I was
• 13:15
  Speaker 7: scared for him because that was his first time. Like,
• 13:19
  Speaker 7: you know, we went over kind of like what he
• 13:22
  Speaker 7: was going to say, but it's nothing like when you're
• 13:25
  Speaker 7: in that moment, you know, and it was just like
• 13:27
  Speaker 7: we were in the you know, in South Philadelphia. But
• 13:31
  Speaker 7: when we went in, he was like, you know, he
• 13:33
  Speaker 7: whispered like to the guy. He was like, can I
• 13:36
  Speaker 7: speak to the manager? And he was like, yeah, what's up?
• 13:38
  Speaker 7: What's up? Bro? Yeah? And he was like can I,
• 13:41
  Speaker 7: you know, can I make an announcement and sell my
• 13:44
  Speaker 7: my my T shirts? He was like yeah, sure. So
• 13:46
  Speaker 7: Trey got in the middle of the floor. It was
• 13:48
  Speaker 7: like a long walk to the middle of the floor.
• 13:51
  Speaker 7: He was scared, and then he was like he was like, hey, everybody,
• 13:54
  Speaker 7: you know, I got my T shirts and you know
• 13:57
  Speaker 7: I could be out selling drugs or doing violence. Yeah.

  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 14:03
  Speaker 7: It was like kind of all over the place and
• 14:05
  Speaker 7: this my brand spurg Oh. He kept going like this
• 14:07
  Speaker 7: my brand Spurgo when I got T shirts all sizes
• 14:11
  Speaker 7: all around, and so they were like in shock. They
• 14:15
  Speaker 7: was like, wait, ho, turn the music there. Like everybody
• 14:18
  Speaker 7: like stopped what they was doing. And it was probably
• 14:21
  Speaker 7: like a very rewarding experience for me because I was
• 14:24
  Speaker 7: nervous and it was just like mentorship, like right on
• 14:27
  Speaker 7: the spot, like they embraced him, like they was like
• 14:29

  Speaker 7: there was so much encouragement for him, you know when

  Speaker 7: like it was like their reassurance like he gonna be alright,
• 15:04
  Speaker 7: like he can. It was like he could do it.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: No.

• 15:41
  Speaker 2: influences with a lot of people are around and they
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: can spread the message and you don't have any any
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: fear in doing it.
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: That stops a lot of people right there.
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: It's like just to be able to get in front
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: of a barber shop in front of strangers and pitch yourself.
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: That takes a lot of courage.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: And it's like even even for adults, Like there's a
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: ton of adults are scared to tell their friends that
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: they want to start a business, let alone a room
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: full of strangers.
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: You know, it's one thing if you did it in
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: like your own barbershop.
• 16:12
  Speaker 5: But you're going into some neighborhoods that ain't you know
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: what I'm saying, Like you.
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: Don't even know the people. That takes a lot of
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: courage and dedication. Man.
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: So were you able to put the merch in the
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: shops like.
• 16:23
  Speaker 6: We we uh further down the line, I put like
• 16:26
  Speaker 6: some some I came ome with my first do rag,
• 16:29
  Speaker 6: so I put some dog barbershops.
• 16:32
  Speaker 7: So you did it with okay.
• 16:33
  Speaker 6: Oh yeah, so I did. I did put some merch
• 16:37
  Speaker 6: in a few barbershops, and that was like my first
• 16:40
  Speaker 6: piece of district distribution. Distribution. Yeah, but I was still
• 16:46
  Speaker 6: going out the barber shops. Even when I did have uh,
• 16:49
  Speaker 6: you know, some merch and barbershops, some Spurgo gear and barbershops.
• 16:53
  Speaker 6: I was still going out the barber shops as well.
• 16:55
  Speaker 6: So like that was like kind of like two streams
• 16:57
  Speaker 6: a little bit, getting it from you know, that barbershop
• 17:01
  Speaker 6: and then also going out to the barbershops. And also that
• 17:04
  Speaker 6: was kind of like a pickup vocation as well. I
• 17:07
  Speaker 6: would send people there when I sold out, you know,
• 17:11
  Speaker 6: so that was kind of like a pick up vocation
• 17:13
  Speaker 6: as well. And it was really it was really really cool.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: So Saturday, that's your Saturday routine. Was going to barber shops,
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: like twenty barber shops in the city all day Saturday,
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: and he was just selling hand in hand in the
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: barber shop. So all right, So now you got a
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: whole thing going with the barber shops and your name
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: is building in the city, I'm assuming, so what's the
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: next play after that to grow the brand?
• 17:36
  Speaker 6: So after the barbershop, I was moving around in the
• 17:39
  Speaker 6: city and somebody gave me, you know, diddy numbers to
• 17:43
  Speaker 6: show a number, and.
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: How did somebody that.
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: Rewind?
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: It's an important person that gave you his number.
• 17:52
  Speaker 7: So so so Trey was moving around so much that
• 17:56
  Speaker 7: it was just like it's almost like how can I help?
• 17:59
  Speaker 7: You know, like people like because I think you know,
• 18:03
  Speaker 7: when you working hard, it draws people to you. It's like,
• 18:06
  Speaker 7: you know, like they want to be a part of
• 18:08
  Speaker 7: helping you be successful. And it is roal people out
• 18:11
  Speaker 7: here that really genuinely want to know.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: I'm glad you said that because that's something that is
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: underrated too. Low of inertia, Yeah, low of inertia is
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: like object emotion stays in emotion or object and still
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: stay still, like once you get the ball rolling. And
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: Wallow told me to shout out to Wallow. Yeah, we
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: spoke every we speak a lot, but he was I
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: was asking him. I'm like, yo, how you get all
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: this bar stool?
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: How?
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: He was like, yo, once you get hot, bro, it's
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: just like you just you just like things tracked like you.
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: Energy attracts energy like energy, right, So it's like and
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: people want to be around people that are successful.
• 18:45
  Speaker 4: It's human nature.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: So it's like, once you really start to get that
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: ball rolling, you'd be surprised how many blessings just randomly
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: just start falling in your lot.
• 18:56
  Speaker 7: It's been yeah, because it's like constantly working then so
• 19:00
  Speaker 7: many people are. So it's like even if people don't
• 19:02
  Speaker 7: notice you the first time, they may see you in
• 19:04
  Speaker 7: another setting like wait, oh ya, I saw him before,
• 19:07
  Speaker 7: like or I saw that brand, and then they're now
• 19:09
  Speaker 7: they're now digging in their brain like where did I notice?
• 19:12
  Speaker 7: Like so they're now researching him or where they saw
• 19:15
  Speaker 7: him first. So it was like he you know, he's
• 19:18
  Speaker 7: out here doing something positive, you know, inspiring other kids.
• 19:22
  Speaker 7: So it's like, how can I help him to keep going?
• 19:25
  Speaker 7: And he let you. Gave him the number.
• 19:27
  Speaker 6: And first thing, honestly, first day out there was FaceTime
• 19:34
  Speaker 6: can't pick up. So I made him a video. And
• 19:38
  Speaker 6: that's one thing about me, like I'm big on the videos.
• 19:40
  Speaker 6: Pictures is cool, but I do videos. I sent them
• 19:43
  Speaker 6: a video. Hey, mister Shawn, my name is Chay Brown. Uh,
• 19:47
  Speaker 6: my name is Chay Brown. I'm a twelve year old entrepreneur.
• 19:51
  Speaker 6: Seeo my own clothing brand called Spurgo, and then everything
• 19:55
  Speaker 6: like that, I'm gonna send you out the video. So
• 19:58
  Speaker 6: after that, that was like mid July. I'm packing up
• 20:02
  Speaker 6: shirts in August one morning and my phone just keeps
• 20:05
  Speaker 6: on buzzing. It just constantly. It just kept on buzzing.
• 20:09
  Speaker 6: I checked my phone and people telling me that, you know, Diddy,
• 20:13
  Speaker 6: you know, shouting me out. Mister Sean shouted me out.
• 20:16
  Speaker 6: And that was just like the big like a big
• 20:18
  Speaker 6: step for me because a lot of people in Philly
• 20:20
  Speaker 6: seeing it, So that stepped up my credibility. A lot
• 20:23
  Speaker 6: of people you know, all over the world was just
• 20:25
  Speaker 6: hit me up like yo, I need a shirt. But
• 20:28
  Speaker 6: good thing is I had I set the website up
• 20:31
  Speaker 6: in May so and he shouted me out. On August
• 20:34
  Speaker 6: so now everybody all around the world able to order
• 20:37
  Speaker 6: a Spurgo shirt and everything like that. So that was
• 20:40
  Speaker 6: really cool. You know, people just wanting to help people,
• 20:43
  Speaker 6: you know, sharing as well, you know. So that was
• 20:45
  Speaker 6: the first step. That was the first day my website
• 20:49
  Speaker 6: just sold out. Everything had sold out first day on
• 20:53
  Speaker 6: the jet, my first day you know, inside of Maybag.
• 20:56
  Speaker 6: So that day was really good. Later on, no, actually,
• 21:01
  Speaker 6: from that post, I was able to get my first
• 21:03
  Speaker 6: wholesale my first wholesale deal, and it was for five
• 21:07
  Speaker 6: hundred shirts. They didn't want no discount or nothing like that.
• 21:10
  Speaker 6: They ordered five hundred shirts that like, at the time,
• 21:13
  Speaker 6: the shirts was twenty five dollars. That's why I said
• 21:15
  Speaker 6: at the time, because they ain't twenty five. Yeah, so
• 21:22
  Speaker 6: they was like twenty five at the time. Also at
• 21:25
  Speaker 6: that time, I just gained some connections as well. A
• 21:28
  Speaker 6: lot of people in his family. They you know, they
• 21:30
  Speaker 6: knew me and they was like DM and me and
• 21:32
  Speaker 6: things like that. So later on that month, I found
• 21:37
  Speaker 6: out meek Mill he was having a pop up shop
• 21:39
  Speaker 6: inside Philly. Me growing up being from Philly, meek Mill
• 21:43
  Speaker 6: was somebody that I look up to heavy, somebody that
• 21:46
  Speaker 6: came from you know, uh the streets and everything like
• 21:49
  Speaker 6: that and made it and being successful. So I felt
• 21:52
  Speaker 6: I saw that he was, you know, had a pop
• 21:54
  Speaker 6: up shop in Philly, he was gonna be there. Luckily
• 21:57
  Speaker 6: I was all from score that day I met him.
• 22:00
  Speaker 6: He posted me on his Instagram early before I met him.
• 22:04
  Speaker 6: I had my affirmations up. I'm powerful, I'm great, I'm amazing,
• 22:09
  Speaker 6: everything like that. But when he shouted me out meek,
• 22:14
  Speaker 6: you know, it gave me another, you know, step of credibility.
• 22:17
  Speaker 6: Like this kid is like everywhere and like this is crazy.
• 22:22
  Speaker 6: So after that, like it just it just kept building
• 22:25
  Speaker 6: from there with you know, with the wholesale deal from
• 22:29
  Speaker 6: you know, people seeing me on Diddy page, I was
• 22:32
  Speaker 6: able to get my first sweatsuits. So out of them sweatsuits,

  Speaker 6: We got a full brand, full collections, and Spurble was
• 22:56
  Speaker 6: like really getting up there now.
• 22:58
  Speaker 5: So in the beginning, you're still in school, you're still
• 23:00
  Speaker 5: a student, in school, right, yeah, now, I know if
• 23:02
  Speaker 5: you had a nice outfit in school, you're the man.
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: What is it like when daddy's posting you, meets posting
• 23:08
  Speaker 5: you and you're going to school.
• 23:09
  Speaker 4: What's that?
• 23:10
  Speaker 6: Like a lot of people they were just like I
• 23:12
  Speaker 6: just started. I started being like a cool kid. But
• 23:16
  Speaker 6: in the beginning of me, in the beginning of me,
• 23:18
  Speaker 6: like doing something different, like starting a business, and then
• 23:21
  Speaker 6: me doing my affirmations every day too, like because them
• 23:24
  Speaker 6: affirmations really kick in, like I'm strong, I'm a billionaire,
• 23:27
  Speaker 6: I'm powerful, I'm happy. Affirmation like that that really kick in,
• 23:31
  Speaker 6: you know when negative things are happening. But kids at
• 23:35
  Speaker 6: first like oh that's corny, you know, and different things
• 23:38
  Speaker 6: like that. I was getting laughed at and picked on,
• 23:40
  Speaker 6: you know, in the beginning, because you know, it was
• 23:42
  Speaker 6: just something different, Like it's like in my city, is
• 23:46
  Speaker 6: not really cool to do something positive or do something different.
• 23:49
  Speaker 6: But like what mister Waall said, like when people think
• 23:51
  Speaker 6: you crazy, that mean you want something like you like
• 23:54
  Speaker 6: you got something great going on. But in the beginning,
• 23:58
  Speaker 6: in the beginning, it wasn't cool. But like as like,
• 24:02
  Speaker 6: you know, things started coming. I started growing on social
• 24:06
  Speaker 6: media a lot of my friends like you. They was
• 24:08
  Speaker 6: with it. I gat, you know, new friends who had
• 24:11
  Speaker 6: businesses and different things.
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: Like yeah, it's always it's always funny until it's not funny.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: But also the thing I like about you also is
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: that like you're staying in people's radar and that's important.
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: And it's like going back to why. Like I was
• 24:27

• 24:30
  Speaker 2: asked me, He was like, yeah, going the All Star
• 24:33

• 24:53
  Speaker 2: so you know, we sat down, we had a conversation.
• 24:55

  Speaker 6: met him, he was like real chill because he was
• 29:28
  Speaker 6: in the business move But when I see him next time,
• 29:31
  Speaker 6: we're gonna be right.
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: Next next time, next time to turn up as the
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: next second we're going we're gonna go into next all right,
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: So now we're gonna go into the next segment, so
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: we're gonna talk about systems and day to day operations.
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: But before that, so the homeschooling process, because I'm sure
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of parents that listen to earn leisure
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: and they might, you know, have thought about homeschool. You're
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: a teacher by trade, so it's probably easier for you
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: to teach.
• 29:58
  Speaker 7: Well. Actually, he is like sign school, so I don't
• 30:01
  Speaker 7: have to come up with the curriculum. Homeschool and cyber
• 30:03
  Speaker 7: school is a little bit different, whereas homeschool, the parent
• 30:06
  Speaker 7: does have to come up with the curriculum and the
• 30:08
  Speaker 7: activities and things like that. So he does cyber school.
• 30:11
  Speaker 7: He'd probably just say cyber school where the curriculum is
• 30:14
  Speaker 7: already there. He has teachers, he has counselors. They did
• 30:18
  Speaker 7: some like once every quarter they had like a little
• 30:20
  Speaker 7: get together where you can meet the teachers and.
• 30:22
  Speaker 4: Talk about with the name of the school.
• 30:24
  Speaker 7: Uh, he goes to twenty first century.
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: That's like something I did. Actually, So when I went
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: to I used to play basketball. So when I went
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: to prep school in Florida, and so my last two
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: years of high school I was at it was so
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: Texas saying I was in school in Florida, but Texas
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: A and M had like a satellite program where so
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: I traveled a lot because it was like a really
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: good prep school. So like I would do like coursework,
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: like it's like online learning, right, basically equivalent of online learning.
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: I would go to the physical location when I was
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: in town, but if not, like they'd just send me packets,
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: do the coursework, send the packets back. It gets graded
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: like a whole system in place. And I was because
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: I wasn't really in school a lot, right.
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: So that sounds like the equivalent of.
• 31:09
  Speaker 7: Like, yeah, it's very similar.
• 31:10
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a new age way of learning anything about
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: it is that like a lot of the old traditional
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: ways is it's kind of outdated, Like you go to
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: a school.
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: From seven o'clock in the morning to three thirty.
• 31:22
  Speaker 7: That was his complaint doing that. He was like, yeah,
• 31:28
  Speaker 7: he that was his complaint. He was like, Mama, spent
• 31:30
  Speaker 7: an hour of traveling in school. I spent an hour
• 31:33
  Speaker 7: coming back. You know. He had this whole thing laid out,
• 31:36
  Speaker 7: like he was like, we kids don't listen, you know,
• 31:40
  Speaker 7: like teacher spending time with telling the kids to sit down.
• 31:43
  Speaker 7: And I'm a teacher, so I kind of know how
• 31:45
  Speaker 7: much time is like wasting, Yeah, wasted on just getting
• 31:49
  Speaker 7: the masses the right thing. So I mean it just
• 31:52
  Speaker 7: started like he just kind of like broke kept breaking
• 31:55
  Speaker 7: breaking it down, you know. But for me it was
• 31:57
  Speaker 7: difficult at first because I was like I didn't really
• 32:00
  Speaker 7: know anybody else that did it before. I didn't want
• 32:02
  Speaker 7: him to miss out on social things. I'm like, you
• 32:05
  Speaker 7: know what trade when it's time to go to high school,
• 32:07
  Speaker 7: you're gonna go on your prime or like you know,
• 32:09
  Speaker 7: so I was kind of a little bit concerned about.
• 32:14
  Speaker 5: Saying I think he's doing I'm with CALLI mom. The
• 32:17
  Speaker 5: social pot we got.
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: So that's what that's dope because like I said, I mean,
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: there's no one shoe fits off feet exactly, and there's
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: no one way to learn, right, So it's like there's
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: nothing that beats real life experience.
• 32:34
  Speaker 6: So it depends, like it really depends because like my
• 32:38
  Speaker 6: little like my little brother like and my little sister, like,
• 32:42
  Speaker 6: they really wouldn't like homeschool because they like, you know,
• 32:45
  Speaker 6: learning with friends and different things like that. My little
• 32:48
  Speaker 6: sister is like a social person, so homeschool for her,
• 32:51
  Speaker 6: you know, wouldn't fit really right.
• 32:53
  Speaker 7: She loves getting on the school, but she loves like
• 32:55
  Speaker 7: so like you said, one when you don't fit all.
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: Fee that's the fact. So all right, So so your homeschool.
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: So how does the day that they operations work as
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: far as the business, because so obviously you have inventory,
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: you got ship inventory, you got social media marketing. Can
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: you like walk me through it like an average day
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: like of you running the business with me or with
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: both both of you guys, Like just like what's your
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: average day of like the business operation?
• 33:23
  Speaker 6: So with me, average day, I wake up six six thirty,
• 33:31
  Speaker 6: a week up a week up six thirty. So this
• 33:35
  Speaker 6: is a day for me, So six thirty, take my
• 33:39
  Speaker 6: little brother and older sisters to the school bus. After that,
• 33:42
  Speaker 6: I knock out some After that, I knock out some schoolwork,
• 33:45
  Speaker 6: hit the gym. Hit the gym at like eight, Uh,
• 33:54
  Speaker 6: I get back, I get back, and then just you know,
• 33:57
  Speaker 6: I checked social media, see what's popping. But uh, you know,
• 34:05
  Speaker 6: later later on then I'm I might just be traveling,
• 34:11

• 34:18
  Speaker 6: getting on some like you know, business calls. Uh yeah,
• 34:23

  Speaker 7: Trey has been on over thirty media outlets.
• 40:52
  Speaker 4: Last year, you do PR yourself? Yeah, how do you?
• 40:54
  Speaker 4: What's so, what's your formula for PR?
• 40:56
  Speaker 7: Just so PR, Like sometimes I'll send out press releases,
• 40:58
  Speaker 7: but right now it's always it's been like a heavy
• 41:01
  Speaker 7: demand for him. So like we haven't even yeah, we
• 41:04
  Speaker 7: haven't even really got into.
• 41:06
  Speaker 6: The part of we're like trying to reach out, right.
• 41:09
  Speaker 7: So I believe, you know, I feel like this year
• 41:10
  Speaker 7: is going to be a year where we would really
• 41:12
  Speaker 7: step it up, where he gets into those like mainstream things,
• 41:16
  Speaker 7: you know.
• 41:16
  Speaker 5: So uh yeah, so you you actually were teaching in school.
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: We have that account. We had a talk about the
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: power of education.
• 41:24
  Speaker 5: And classroom management. At a certain point you said, I
• 41:27
  Speaker 5: can't teach anymore.
• 41:29
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it was getting difficult because I was working in
• 41:32
  Speaker 7: the you know, the inner city is already rough, you know,
• 41:35
  Speaker 7: so working in inner city, working full time, it was
• 41:38
  Speaker 7: coming home already exhausted. But I would still have to,
• 41:41
  Speaker 7: you know, put in like six hours with Tray because
• 41:44
  Speaker 7: he is fourteen, and he is a beast. Like he's
• 41:47
  Speaker 7: a beast, but it's some things that he just can't handle, like,
• 41:50
  Speaker 7: you know, bank stuff, just different things that you know,
• 41:53
  Speaker 7: an adult has to take care of So I would
• 41:56
  Speaker 7: spend you know, six hours with him, and then I'm
• 41:58
  Speaker 7: like running. Then I got to be your mom to
• 42:00
  Speaker 7: my other kids. You know, my family, got to take
• 42:03
  Speaker 7: care of my family. So I'm like running off of
• 42:05
  Speaker 7: like four or five hours of sleep. So after a while,
• 42:08
  Speaker 7: like it's just it was just starting to get like
• 42:10
  Speaker 7: really really rough. And you know, Trey always said, my
• 42:14
  Speaker 7: came on, like you don't gotta do that, you don't
• 42:16
  Speaker 7: gotta work, And you know, a part of it was
• 42:19
  Speaker 7: my own fear, you know, like we stepping in waters.
• 42:22
  Speaker 7: Our family have never you know, we're doing that, you know, yeah,
• 42:26
  Speaker 7: we're doing different. We're like when we started. People his
• 42:29
  Speaker 7: friends was laughing at him, but even adults looking at me,
• 42:32
  Speaker 7: like what is you doing? You know, like so I
• 42:35
  Speaker 7: mean leaving my job. My parents even were just looking
• 42:39
  Speaker 7: at me like you sure, you know, like they as
• 42:42
  Speaker 7: much as they believed in the brand, like it's just
• 42:44
  Speaker 7: that security, that guarantee income and things like that, but
• 42:47
  Speaker 7: just believing in trade, believing in the brand, believing in
• 42:51
  Speaker 7: you know, you know, my own higher power and you know,
• 42:54
  Speaker 7: just that kind of stuff. I was like, I can't,
• 42:58
  Speaker 7: it's not even healthy at this point to keep living
• 43:00
  Speaker 7: like this and things are going really great. It's almost
• 43:03
  Speaker 7: like you, if you believe you got we gotta do
• 43:06
  Speaker 7: something in order for him to go to the next level,
• 43:08
  Speaker 7: for this to go to the next level, for us
• 43:10
  Speaker 7: to really break these generational curses. We got to step
• 43:14
  Speaker 7: out my last thing.
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: So you talked about putting systems in place. Can you
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: talk about that?
• 43:23
  Speaker 6: So playing systems in place? You want to talk about them?
• 43:26
  Speaker 7: Yeah, that was so. Our first year trade is very
• 43:30
  Speaker 7: like spontaneous, like all right, man, we're going here. You know,
• 43:35
  Speaker 7: we're not we're not doing this mom or we you know.
• 43:37
  Speaker 7: So after about a year and a half like that,
• 43:40
  Speaker 7: that's starting to get draining because it's like we're going here,
• 43:44
  Speaker 7: we're making moves here, but this part is slipping because
• 43:47
  Speaker 7: maybe we forgot to do one thing or we forgot
• 43:50
  Speaker 7: to do another thing. So it's kind of like a
• 43:52
  Speaker 7: bunch of like time, we're wasting time sometime, or we're
• 43:55
  Speaker 7: losing resources in another area. So systems are really important,
• 44:00
  Speaker 7: like those day to day like we ship on these days,
• 44:02
  Speaker 7: you know, we had to put those kind of things
• 44:04
  Speaker 7: in place. Uh, this is how we answer this question.
• 44:08
  Speaker 7: Putting those frequently asked questions on the website, just a
• 44:11
  Speaker 7: bunch of infrastructure and you know, setting setting the bar
• 44:16
  Speaker 7: for ourselves. We had to do it because otherwise we
• 44:19

  Speaker 6: his d D he got, you know, he got some
• 47:48
  Speaker 6: Spurgo jerk. We took a video and then the next
• 47:52
  Speaker 6: year that I met him, like he was like he
• 47:55
  Speaker 6: was like so happy to see me because he seen
• 47:57
  Speaker 6: my commercial on CNN, and like we just stayed in connection,
• 48:01
  Speaker 6: you know, ever since then, because I watched mister every
• 48:04
  Speaker 6: day on YouTube and different things like that, and you know,
• 48:07
  Speaker 6: me and mister E, we would text each other and
• 48:09
  Speaker 6: stuff like that. So I would come to every conference,
• 48:11
  Speaker 6: every one percent club and everything like that, so I
• 48:16
  Speaker 6: would mister E would just keep seeing me. Uh yeah,
• 48:21
  Speaker 6: I was paying to go. And then my mom she
• 48:23
  Speaker 6: would volunteer and things like that, so that that's what
• 48:26
  Speaker 6: it was. And then mister he just kept seeing me,
• 48:29
  Speaker 6: seeing me on Instagram and then he let me come speak.
• 48:32
  Speaker 6: My first you know, speaking engagement with mister E was
• 48:35
  Speaker 6: last month in Atlanta and the crowd went like crazy,
• 48:39
  Speaker 6: that's crazy. So that was like that was that was
• 48:41
  Speaker 6: real cool. And now I'm on tour with him. You
• 48:43
  Speaker 6: ain't the bosson me tours, so that's amazing.
• 48:45
  Speaker 5: So when you started right when the kids didn't take
• 48:47
  Speaker 5: you seriously, that's one thing.
• 48:49
  Speaker 3: What was it like when you.
• 48:49
  Speaker 5: Were speaking in front of adults now and you're giving
• 48:52
  Speaker 5: them inspiration?
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: What was that like for you?
• 48:55
  Speaker 6: Uh, Like, I don't know. I was just like being myself,
• 48:59
  Speaker 6: Like it was just like I didn't I didn't really
• 49:03
  Speaker 6: even notice, Like I think the.
• 49:05
  Speaker 7: Hardest part was the kids part that that was the
• 49:08
  Speaker 7: hardest battle for him. I had to you know, I
• 49:10
  Speaker 7: was really encouraging him, like trading, now you're doing something amazing.
• 49:13
  Speaker 7: I think adults always kind of connected with Trade because
• 49:16
  Speaker 7: he's always been really mature and a lot of them
• 49:20
  Speaker 7: were really excited and Trade is just like excited to be,
• 49:24
  Speaker 7: you know, to talk with adults and stuff.
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: But the reason why actually if you paid for the conferences.
• 49:29
  Speaker 2: Because so it's another guest that we had on the podcast,
• 49:32
  Speaker 2: alumni Alex Good Energy. I don't know if you know him,
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: but he does trucking and he's connected with ET. He's
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: in the circle. And he was telling us that how
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: he got connected with ET is that he was paying
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: to go to his conferences for a long time and
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: he had like a cruise and he paid like ten
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: thousand dollars to go to the cruise and randomly he
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: didn't pay to meet him. He was just paying because
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: he got value out of it. And he randomly ended
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: up with his business partner CJ.
• 50:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and.
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: He was like and he was talking and then the
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: next thing he linked them with ET and the rest
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: is history. Now that business partners, I say that to say, A,
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: you have to be in the mix what we talked
• 50:13
  Speaker 2: about earlier, and B is like, since you got to
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: spend money, Like a lot of times people try to
• 50:17
  Speaker 2: be cheap skates and they don't want to spend money.
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: But it's like, you spend money to put yourself in positions.
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: It might work out, it might not, but you don't
• 50:27
  Speaker 2: know until you're actually in that position. So that's true
• 50:29
  Speaker 2: guests that we've had that's connected with ET, that started
• 50:33
  Speaker 2: with actually going to his conference as customers and not
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: really having any expectation, and then it just kind of
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: worked out organically, so you never know.
• 50:44
  Speaker 6: Now, me and mister EO, like we chop it up
• 50:46
  Speaker 6: every We chop it up right every other day. I'm
• 50:50
  Speaker 6: at the gym, he He'll text me, he he at
• 50:52
  Speaker 6: the gym really in the morning. You know, we're just
• 50:55
  Speaker 6: chopping it up updating each other. I still go to
• 50:58
  Speaker 6: the conferences to this day. You know, it's just all
• 51:01
  Speaker 6: about staying connected relationships, keeping relationships like relationships you know,
• 51:07
  Speaker 6: are like way more important. The value is bigger than
• 51:11
  Speaker 6: money and That's why I like the key relationships.
• 51:16
  Speaker 5: Can we talk about the online store because that changes
• 51:19
  Speaker 5: it for you, right, it went from being a local
• 51:21
  Speaker 5: brand to a global brand, Like you're shipping out to Germany,
• 51:24
  Speaker 5: you're shipping out to Africa.
• 51:26
  Speaker 3: Who's in charge of that? That that part of the business, right, Yes?
• 51:31
  Speaker 7: I mean, well, since it's a website that you can
• 51:33
  Speaker 7: connect with anybody around the world and people are just shopping.
• 51:38
  Speaker 5: So so I mean from the marketing standpoint, like how
• 51:41
  Speaker 5: is it Instagram that is putting you out in these
• 51:43
  Speaker 5: places or is there something.
• 51:44
  Speaker 7: That like So when we do our analytics and we look,
• 51:48
  Speaker 7: one of the top places is like an organic Google search.
• 51:53
  Speaker 7: And then also also I feel like a lot of
• 51:55
  Speaker 7: it comes from the commercial or they seeing the spot
• 51:59
  Speaker 7: it may be on like a celebrity or you know,
• 52:01
  Speaker 7: things like that. And another top spot is and through
• 52:03
  Speaker 7: social media through Instagram.
• 52:05
  Speaker 6: And I got so many short documentaries.
• 52:09
  Speaker 4: Who did it? Short documentaries?
• 52:12
  Speaker 6: I got one with a O L Improvising, I got
• 52:16
  Speaker 6: one with Whistle Sports. I have a lot of Fox Business,
• 52:22
  Speaker 6: even the ceing that commercial is on YouTube. Uh yeah,
• 52:28
  Speaker 6: I got so much like media out so it's like
• 52:31
  Speaker 6: you might just catch.
• 52:32
  Speaker 4: Me might even catch you in Tom Square on billboard?
• 52:39
  Speaker 4: How that? How did that come about?
• 52:41
  Speaker 6: So somebody has seen the commercial, big shout to mister Tracy.
• 52:45
  Speaker 6: He called me, he said, like, I want to give
• 52:48
  Speaker 6: you with a billboard and Tom Square. I picked up

  Speaker 6: bus and my family had came out and they saw
• 53:05
  Speaker 6: the billboard and it was like really like a just

  Speaker 6: I do like a lot of like like people emailing,
• 59:29
  Speaker 6: I'll email him back.
• 59:31
  Speaker 7: He does a lot of forefront stuff. So like, for instance,
• 59:35
  Speaker 7: He'll be like, like he said, Mom, we need some
• 59:37
  Speaker 7: spurgle underwear. So it's like I know about fabrics and
• 59:41
  Speaker 7: stuff like that, so I'll kind of say, well, Trey,
• 59:43
  Speaker 7: do you want this kind of fabric or that kind
• 59:45
  Speaker 7: of fabric? So I'll kind of like give him like
• 59:48
  Speaker 7: a like parameters like and different ideas and say well
• 59:51
  Speaker 7: do you want this or do you want that? Or

• 59:55
  Speaker 7: and needs to look like this, this, this, and that,
• 59:58
  Speaker 7: and I'll say, all right, well we can put it
• 59:59
  Speaker 7: on this average or this printend I think will be best.
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 7: So it's kind of like a collaboration of you know,
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 7: what he wants, the ideas that he want, and then
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 7: it's like what makes sense.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 5: That's kind of what the ways that we spoke to him.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 5: He was like, listen, it's about putting people around you
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 5: that can get your ideas into reality.
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 3: He has the ideas and you're like, all right, this
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 3: is how we put it into right.
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 4: So how do you determine the price points?
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 7: Mm hmm.

• 1:00:41
  Speaker 7: a little business meeting where we talked about profits and
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 7: laws and things like that. So he kind of like
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 7: just calculate like what it costs, like everything from the
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 7: manufacturing to shipping, to packaging to processing and things like that,
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 7: and then we kind of like multiply words though he
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 7: can get a profit off of it.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 2: Dope, dope. Yeah, it's always good to have an in

• 1:01:17
  Speaker 2: other businesses like separate from Spargo?
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 6: So I got like a lot of different businesses in mine.
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 6: I got a book coming out, and then also just
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 6: like different businesses, like I want to have a security company,

  Speaker 5: going to be going back doing some mentorship in your community.
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 6: Yes, So that's what That's what I'm working on right now,
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 6: is just being able to because I know that I
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 6: can't like talk to everybody personally, but I want to
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 6: build like I want to build like a network, you know,
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 6: for kids to you know, come and express like their
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 6: dreams and how they could turn it into like a
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 6: business or how they could you know, turn it into
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 6: you know, some something where.
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 7: Yeah, we're still trying to flush it out because Trey
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 7: gets dms all the time on like what to do next?
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 6: Okay, yeah, so like what.
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 7: Like how like can you take a look at this
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 7: or can you you know, so he wants to have
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 7: like a program where you know, kids can come and
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 7: like he can spend that time with them and work
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 7: work through it because the dms are really like.
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 2: You know, it's it's a lie so mom, and like
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 2: because there's a lot of sports parents, right, and like
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 2: if you if you have a child to play sports,
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 2: you know, it's a demand, like you got taken the
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 2: AAU and you got practice and all of that. But
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 2: it's like to be a business mom and like support
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 2: your child entrepreneurial dreams. Like what advice can you give
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 2: to parents to like encourage them, Like if their kid
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 2: has an idea to start a business, Like you have
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 2: any tips for parents for that?
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I would say, like to trust your kids. You know,
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 7: sometimes we feel like we have all the information and
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 7: we have like all the answers, but kids know a lot,
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 7: you know, they come from a place that we don't
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 7: come from. Like me and Trey is like a great
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 7: team because he's actually taught me so much. Because I
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 7: think as an adult, we kind of experience some things
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 7: where we're like afraid, or we face rejection or you know,
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 7: like we we think too much, whereas though Trade is
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 7: like fearless with a lot of things. And you know,
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 7: I remember when he's when he talked about me and
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 7: Meek or whatever, and I was just like, you're not
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 7: We're not going to ge it up to the line.
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 7: Because you know, the line was actually wrapped around the corner.
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 7: I'm like, we're not gonna get there, and you know,
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 7: Trey just walked his way up to the front and
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 7: they were like, yeah, hey, spurgo come here, and you know,
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 7: just having that fearless and you know, just like you know,
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 7: I want this and I'm gonna go after it. So
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 7: just trusting your kid, I think that's really important. Kids
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 7: are smart, you know, they know what they like, they
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 7: know what they want, and you know, I think sometimes
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 7: as adults we think we know what's best for them,
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 7: but we need to give them credit and let them
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 7: even affirm them and knowing that they know what's best
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 7: for them.
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 5: It's beautiful to watch because like even when we were
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 5: at lunch and he was trying to always like yeah,
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 5: we're gonna eat that, and it was that look like
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 5: if that's okay with you, mom, there's still that balance there, like, yo,
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 5: this is but this is my part of right right.
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 7: So I feel like, just let them dream, you know,
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 7: let them let them and I feel like give them
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 7: the tools. I know, I feel like I didn't figure
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 7: life out until I was like thirty ish thirty two,
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 7: you know, so I spent a lot of years making
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 7: mist so like I feel like if I can give
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 7: my kids an opportunity to experience, experiment with different things,
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 7: you know, to try different things. You know, Trey started
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 7: off with music. It was expensive being a teacher. We
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 7: don't make much, so like going to the studio and
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 7: stuff like yeah, I'm trade, Like Mommy, I need to
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 7: be in a studio, And I'm like, all right. We
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 7: went a couple of times. After about the fourth times
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 7: been at hundreds of dollars, I'm like, trade, we might
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 7: need to wait a month or two, you know. But
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 7: like my daughter, she wanted to do like cooking and dance,
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 7: and you know, like I don't look at it as
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 7: like a waste of money to allow them to try
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 7: different things. You know, if I see, you know, a
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 7: gift in them, and I think they should push further.
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 7: Like we're not gonna skip and just go to something different,
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 7: but I'm allowed you to be interested in something, in
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 7: it and invest in it. You know, we're gonna work
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 7: it out. You're not gonna quit for any reason. But
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 7: if it's something there, I feel like maybe you're not
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 7: gifted in or you don't like, you know, we can't
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 7: try something else, you know.
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I think that that's a that's apparent's job
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 2: to nurture your child's dreams and it just doesn't have
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 2: to be sports and entertainment. That's what we're used to
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 2: in our communities. It's nothing wrong with that, but it's
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 2: like their dreams might be to be a journalist or
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 2: to be exactly a doctor or an entrepreneur, and you
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 2: gotta give that same nurture that if you're taking your
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 2: kid to the basketball court at six o'clock in the
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 2: morning and do drills with them, you gotta do the
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 2: same thing.
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 4: Entrepreneur.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 3: We gotta go to the barbershop every Saturday, like we
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 3: just got to do it.
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it was definitely a sacrifice because like those saturdays
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 7: were my only day off, So it's definitely a sacrifice.
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 7: But I saw how he was learning like good character
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 7: skill like traits that you know I would talk about,
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 7: but it's when he was learning in motion. It was
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 7: just like stuff that was sticking. I saw him that,
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 7: I saw him get like hungry, like I saw these
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 7: great things coming about, and it was just like wow,
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 7: you know, for me, when it started, it was like, oh,
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 7: this is cute. You know, this is an opportunity for
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 7: me to spend time with my kids and you know,
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 7: do something fun with them. But after I saw after
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 7: about a month, and I saw that this was something
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 7: that like it grew in him, like he even wanted
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 7: to do it, but I saw it grow to be
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 7: like dream, like his dream got bigger and bigger every week.
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 8: So keeping but before we wrap up, can you give
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 8: any words to young entrepreneurs Trey that any kids?
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: Like, what's your advice for young entrepreneurs kids that may
