68
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 1: in and uh we know what the pandemic is happening.

69
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 1: And first of all, when how did there are steps

70
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: to this whole madness that's happening right here? Because madness

71
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 1: is affecting people, uh lives, as people are dying, there's testing.

72
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 1: The product to keep your safety's not available on store shelves.

73
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 1: But you're in the people hospitality business, which means that

74
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 1: people come to your places of business. Let's talk about

75
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 1: the fruits initial business shock that you had to undergo

76
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 1: when when they said, hey, you can't be open. Let's

77
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: talk about that. Um So, of course, as a business owner.

78
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,479
Speaker 1: It was definitely very shocking, I think just as many

79
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 1: Number One, I watched the news, and I tried to

80
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: stay informed a lot, so I didn't just start you know,

81
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 1: you've got a lot of people that kind of just

82
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: started watching the news, you know, with this whole pandemic.

83
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 1: So I initially started hearing about the coronavirus and specifically

84
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:43,159
Speaker 1: this COVID nineteen strand back in December when it really

85
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 1: kind of started hitting China. And so employee of mine

86
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: had actually had a trip plan to China in January

87
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 1: and she got really sick and we felt like she

88
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 1: had the coronavirus, you know, and so when she got back,

89
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 1: you know, I didn't let her come back to workingough

90
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 1: for a couple weeks, and you know, things of that nature.

91
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 1: And so it's something that kind of was always on

92
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 1: my radar, and um I kind of saw this coming,

93
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 1: you know, once our cases you know ended up, you know,

94
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 1: going up and and all of that. So about a

95
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:20,159
Speaker 1: week before they made us close, I had told my

96
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:21,919
Speaker 1: business partner two days I was like, you know, I

97
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 1: have a feeling they're gonna close our businesses because we

98
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: were actually just about to renovate our patio and switch

99
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 1: out our POS systems, two things that are you know,

100
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 1: in investment, you know. And so I had actually told him, hey,

101
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 1: let's kind of hold off on this stuff because I

102
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,280
Speaker 1: have a feeling we're gonna have to close the businesses.

103
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 1: And he was just like, what, you know, you think

104
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: it's gonna get death serious? And I was just like, yeah,

105
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 1: that's basically what's happening. And so, uh, it was maybe

106
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 1: about a couple of weeks later that you know, the

107
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,279
Speaker 1: mayor because of course the governor he didn't really act quickly,

108
00:05:56,360 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 1: but you know, the mayor had given the sanction to uh,

109
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 1: you know, go ahead and close you know, the restaurants,

110
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 1: and so UM, I was definitely you know, very shocked

111
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 1: and surprise. Um. And you know I was even more

112
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 1: shocked that they were gonna be giving us us you know,

113
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 1: or at least trying to give us some type of

114
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 1: funds you know, which I hadn't received. But UM, it's

115
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,720
Speaker 1: just very interesting because you know, it's a business owner.

116
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 1: You know, you work hard. Um, your business is like

117
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 1: your baby, and you know, for things to happen and

118
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 1: for you to not be able to operate to no

119
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 1: part of your own just kind of leaves you in

120
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: a very challenging possessition. It really does, you know, and

121
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 1: I wanted you. We're talking about the the Peril Protection

122
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 1: Program that was for small businesses to be able to

123
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: gallocated funds. That will be uh that actually could be

124
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 1: a wash at least seventy five percent of the funds

125
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 1: if you apply those two paying your employees, paying your rent,

126
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 1: and keep you health benefits and you don't have to

127
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 1: pay that back. I have also applied for that snoop.

128
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 1: Nobody has responded yet either, So hopefully this second round

129
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,160
Speaker 1: we can benefit from that. But I think the thing

130
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: that the thing that bothers me the most about this

131
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: whole situation is that as a business owner, you know,

132
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 1: four point four million people have applied for unemployment and

133
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: we're just trying to figure this out together. The thing

134
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 1: that has frustrated me the most is that nobody has

135
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 1: given us a plan on what to do. They've told

136
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 1: us to stay home, which I understand and I value

137
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 1: that because the crisis not over, but we do have

138
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 1: to start functioning again. And so when you started making

139
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 1: a decision to reopen your businesses, to make them, especially

140
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 1: when the governor said, hey, there is you. You could

141
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 1: open up to loans, tattoo, massage, spalls and gems and

142
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 1: bowling analysts one Friday and then the monday Monday after

143
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 1: that you can go into restaurants and theaters and things

144
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 1: like that. He did not say that you had to open.

145
00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: He said you can open. He didn't say you had

146
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: to open. Let's get that now, how and how I

147
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 1: must like look at it, as you know, he just

148
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: gave business owners and option. You know, if you're at

149
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: the point that you know your business may get shut down,

150
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, or or whatever or whatever

151
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 1: the case may be. You know, he just gave people

152
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 1: an option, you know, to go ahead and open. You know,

153
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 1: if you still don't feel comfortable and you want to

154
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 1: stay at home and social distance and things of that nature,

155
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 1: you're still able to do so. Um and so for me,

156
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: I made the decision to go ahead and open up

157
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:32,320
Speaker 1: two out of the four of my businesses. So I've

158
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:36,680
Speaker 1: got Crave Restaurant out of the five. Sorry, um so,

159
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: Crave Restaurant a little five points. I opened that business.

160
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 1: Um I opened the dining in for that one. Today.

161
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,760
Speaker 1: A lot of the other things on our street open

162
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:49,679
Speaker 1: including another restaurant that's over here. So okay, let's le's

163
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 1: let's start with crazy. Let's because I really want to

164
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,200
Speaker 1: slow this down because this is a this is an

165
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 1: important interview about your business, about your brand, about how

166
00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 1: this country is going to be moving forward. Because the

167
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,080
Speaker 1: what met you're using right now is what people are

168
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 1: gonna be using in California. They're gonna be using in

169
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:06,959
Speaker 1: terms because we're all are going to open back up,

170
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 1: and you should only open up when you're ready, and

171
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 1: you put your employees in an environment they're comfortable to

172
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 1: work in, and their customers and your customers that you

173
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,680
Speaker 1: want to come into your place of business feel comfortable

174
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 1: that they would be dining healthy and leave healthy. And

175
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 1: so so crave you you you got with the team,

176
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: What was the plan of action that you put in place? UM? So,

177
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 1: one thing, you know, we have infrared thermometers on site,

178
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:37,080
Speaker 1: so UM, any staff that is coming into work, they

179
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: have to have their fever taken. UM. We're cognisant of

180
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 1: any you know, if they're displaying any symptoms or if

181
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,200
Speaker 1: they do have a fever, of course we aren't letting

182
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:50,679
Speaker 1: those individuals work. Um and in that case, they would

183
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 1: have to go get tested and come back with a

184
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 1: negative coronavirus tests in order to work. Um, all staff

185
00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 1: members will be wearing masks. Our cooks, of course already

186
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 1: wear gloves this whale, UM, but now as all staff

187
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 1: members will be wearing masks. All cooks you know have

188
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:13,079
Speaker 1: been wearing masks in the past. UM. We are only

189
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 1: letting a certain number of people into like for a

190
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 1: restaurant like Crave. UM as far as like the size

191
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 1: of it, we've only got maybe about square feet UM,

192
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 1: so we've limited the number of people that can come

193
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 1: into the restaurant to thirty maxims UM. So that's another

194
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 1: another thing that we're doing. UM. And then we're thinking

195
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 1: about which I haven't done this yet, but I know

196
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 1: when I opened the ask of our locations, I'm probably

197
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 1: going to have the hostess is gonna have an infrared

198
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:46,079
Speaker 1: thermometer and actually be uh checking each customer. You should

199
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: do that. You should do that for a fever, you

200
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: should do that. And now you should do that because

201
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 1: I'm recommended that too, because you know, I put the

202
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,680
Speaker 1: guys talked to a lot of small businesses on the

203
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 1: regular basis on my show and just from from the

204
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,839
Speaker 1: beauty and barbersho loot to the restaurant haunting and this

205
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: is a plan of action you have to put in

206
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 1: place and checking the customers when they come in. There's

207
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,679
Speaker 1: a smart move because if they got a temperature, you know,

208
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 1: they should they should be turned around, turned away. They

209
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 1: shouldn't be in your place of business. But more importantly

210
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 1: having that plane, I think it's really cool. So that's

211
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 1: what you did it Crave. So what was the next

212
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 1: place of business that you opened up? UM, so they

213
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,199
Speaker 1: have remedy Salon sweets is open. So those are basically

214
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 1: just so what I'm responsible for is kind of the

215
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 1: common ground areas pretty much that that business sweet owners

216
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,719
Speaker 1: they rent from me and so they may have their

217
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 1: own sweets in their own businesses to op right. But

218
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,600
Speaker 1: we did strongly encourage that all of the sweet owners

219
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: were masks, that they have to have their clients wear masks.

220
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 1: UM and that UM so now nobody I normally have

221
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 1: a receptionist on site. Nobody will be allowed to go

222
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 1: to her death She'll just be buzzing people in it.

223
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:55,080
Speaker 1: Then they have to go straight to the sweep that

224
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 1: they're going to. UM. She also has the infrared thermometer,

225
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 1: so everyone that comes into the out in their temperature

226
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 1: will be checked as well. Um and we aren't doing

227
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 1: any wedding area, so they literally the customers have to

228
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 1: come in and go straight to the suite that they're

229

267
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 1: And when when which opens themselves up for criticism, they

268
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 1: always say people. You know, you can see a building,

269
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 1: but if you don't see a name or person, now

270
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 1: he's a person attached that building a restaurant. How what

271
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 1: has been the reaction of and even thinking about opening

272
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 1: up his business? What has been the reaction to change? Yeah,

273
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 1: So I own own three businesses with two chains um.

274
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 1: Two of which are is over our locations, which are

275
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 1: pretty popular here in the city of Atlanta. Another business

276
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 1: that we have members only allowing in restaurants, and that

277
00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 1: one is more of allowing. So we didn't even consider

278
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 1: opening that one when the governor gave us the option

279
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 1: to do so. However, our s of our location employees

280
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 1: over a hundred people that are absolutely struggling. You know,

281
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 1: even though we've been able to do carry out, we've

282
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 1: only ourselves have been now by no um. You know,

283
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 1: even though we've been able to do carry out, you know,

284
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 1: we're just rotating you know, a few staff members UM

285
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 1: and so you know a lot of the staff you

286
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 1: know has been struggling it. So anyway, you know, when

287
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: the governor said that we could open um, we initially

288
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 1: wanted to go ahead and do so. And so well,

289
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 1: you know, I hear all the complaints and I tell

290
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 1: people this. Okay, we and you and we're on the

291
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 1: same page. Snoop, we're on the same page, okay, from

292
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 1: the standpoint of opening your business under the right guidelines

293
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 1: of as much having safe operating principles for not only

294
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 1: your employees but your customers. Okay. When when the face

295
00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 1: mask first came out, they were telling us not to

296
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 1: wear face masks, he said, don't wear that, fast man,

297
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 1: don't wear face masks. Then three weeks later, wear a

298
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 1: face mask. And now they're telling us, hey, when this

299
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 1: is safe to open. I don't know when it's going

300
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 1: to be safe to open because of the fact that

301
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 1: nobody has found the vaccine and they've already told us

302
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 1: this summer that you will still be social distancing. So

303
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 1: we have to figure out the plans new on how

304
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 1: to operate our businesses, how to social distance ourselves. And

305
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 1: then when the people start open to the first thing

306
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 1: they're gonna say is it's Spike, I told you, I

307
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 1: told you so. As they start open the business, I'll

308
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 1: tell you something. It's gonna spike anyway, as soon as

310
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: But when we start living a normal life, Snoop, it's

311
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 1: when we can figure out how to contain this, how

Speaker 1: Sean McDonald. You're listening to money making conversations. I'm not

328
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:48,639
Speaker 1: not making this show, this interview about campaign, It's about

329
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,239
Speaker 1: just staying facts in the new world that we live in.

330
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:53,480
Speaker 1: It's a pandemic world that we live in, and we're

331
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 1: all trying to figure this out together. This crisis is

332
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 1: not over, so we're trying to figure out how we

333
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 1: can move forward, how we can do business, how we

334
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:04,199
Speaker 1: can go shopping without being nervous. When we go shopping,

335
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 1: we can find toilet paper on the shelves, we can

336
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 1: find hand sanitized on the shelves, when we can find

337
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,479
Speaker 1: paper towels on the shelf, rubber gloves on the shelves.

338
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,439
Speaker 1: That's what I'm trying to get in this new world now.

339
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 1: Businesses have to exist because people are imployed. Four point

340
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 1: four million people on it for apply for unemployment. That

341
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 1: is not sustainable. I'm still waiting on my my payroll

342
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,639
Speaker 1: protection program protection check that hadn't arrived yet may not arrive.

343
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 1: So I still have to do business. I still have

344
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,200
Speaker 1: to maintained my employees. We do Zoom meetings on the

345
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:39,159
Speaker 1: daily basis because my guests Snoop dealer is in the

346
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 1: hospitality business. That means that her business is designed to

347
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,239
Speaker 1: interact with people. People have to come to her, She

348
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 1: provides the service, They enjoy their service, they tell their friends,

349
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:54,320
Speaker 1: they tell other potential customers, and her business flourishes. Since

350
00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 1: a pandamic hit, she has had to shutter all of

351
00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: her doors because of that reason. It is effective a

352
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 1: lot of people working, people who are making a lot

353
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:10,639
Speaker 1: of effective payroll payments, of payments, slayer creditors, rent, mortgage,

354
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:14,440
Speaker 1: car notes, food, which this economy needs to get back

355
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:18,159
Speaker 1: rolling on. I am not an advocate of how Governor

356
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:22,120
Speaker 1: Kemp does business. I'm just an advocate of individuals who

357
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:26,719

366
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 1: of support you know for other business owners, especially those

367
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 1: that are afraid to open up their businesses because of

368
00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 1: back lass. You have some businesses that if they continue

369
00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:02,360
Speaker 1: to stay closed, they may not it may not even

370
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:06,360
Speaker 1: be a possibility for them to open up again at all. Um.

371
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:08,680
Speaker 1: So you know, just kind of you know, being a

372
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: support for those people, help and talk about you know,

373
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,639

374
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 1: you know, and things of that nature. I think people

375
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 1: just a lot of times kind of look at business

376
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 1: owners has privileged people, you know, who get it made,

377
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 1: you know, just because you have a business or too. Um,

378
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:25,920
Speaker 1: and that's not the truth. You know what I'm saying.

379
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 1: Businesses have, um, a lot of finances and a lot

380
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,880
Speaker 1: of bills and things of that nature you know behind them.

381
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 1: Uh So another thing that I've just been kind of

382
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 1: doing is I've also recorded some courses that I've been

383
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:42,160
Speaker 1: released in every week. So um, I've got my website

384
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:44,199
Speaker 1: is who is snoop dot com? But people can go

385
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:47,880
Speaker 1: to courses that's who is snoop dot com? And I've

386
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,160
Speaker 1: it's done different courses. Or you know, how to open

387
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,560
Speaker 1: up a business, you know, how to fund your business,

388
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 1: how to save and invest, how to invest into the market,

389
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:57,479
Speaker 1: because that's a big thing right now. You know, this

390
00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: is a man made recession. So with the market being down,

391
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 1: it is absolutely gonna go up. And you know, there

392
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:07,240
Speaker 1: are lots of businesses that do good business who stock

393
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 1: is down just because of what's going on, and so

394
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:14,000
Speaker 1: there's a lot of opportunity there, you know, for individuals

395
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,880
Speaker 1: to be able to make money, um in the stock market.

396
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,399
Speaker 1: So I've been doing various classes and things of that nature,

397
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,880
Speaker 1: just keeping people, um up up to date on what's

398
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:24,880

Speaker 1: PPP law and the economic injury disaster, UH loan and

404
00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,840

405
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 1: to speake insistent and continue to do what I do

406
00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:53,399
Speaker 1: and keep people informed. You know, some you said a

414
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:19,000
Speaker 1: important that all the well you know from Jump when

415
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:20,639
Speaker 1: I first brought you on the show, and it was

416
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 1: about you know, fear, doubt and failure among the many

417
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:28,200
Speaker 1: reasons businesses failed and people quit. But you believe overcoming

418
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 1: obstacles in life is the best tool for success. That's

419
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 1: why you were talking about It's Snoop who is snoop

420
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 1: dot com which highlights the recent achievements of you while

421
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,919
Speaker 1: documenting your journey with the world and this success around you.

422
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 1: You know, we all go back to when you graduated

423
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,639
Speaker 1: from Vanderbilt because you graduated when you were sixteen? Correct,

424
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:51,720
Speaker 1: I graduated when when he was six sixteen? As you graduating,

425
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,439
Speaker 1: you use twenty and so so you've always been ahead

426
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:59,160
Speaker 1: of the curve academically and professionally. And so how did

427
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,879
Speaker 1: you advice to people who are trying to find themselves,

428
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:05,680
Speaker 1: especially they at home? There's a lot of doubt, there's

429
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,399
Speaker 1: a lot of uncertainty. What advice will you get? People

430
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: are young people, male or female? Uh, how to how

431
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,960
Speaker 1: to deal with these these crisis situations right now? As

432
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,679
Speaker 1: new UM, I would just tell people, you know, stay grounded,

433
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 1: you know, stay prayed up. Um, try not to and

434
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:28,159
Speaker 1: there's a lot of you know, just following um you know,

435
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 1: just what what it is that other people are doing.

436
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,159
Speaker 1: You know, have your own mind, you know, be a leader,

437
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,640
Speaker 1: to be smart. Um. I think one of the things

438
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 1: that you commented on it so true. You know, there's

439
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 1: just so much different information that's out there. It contradicts

440
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 1: itself because this is a new virus, you know. So

441
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 1: one of the things that I was really focused on doing.

442
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: It's just kind of working on some things that I

443
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:53,440
Speaker 1: normally don't have time to do, you know, because life

444
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 1: is generally moving so fast. You know, clean your closets out,

445
00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,679
Speaker 1: clean your phones out, you know, little gardening projects and

446
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,399
Speaker 1: things of that nature, you know at the house, you know.

447
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,160
Speaker 1: So um, I think it's a good time to just

448
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 1: kind of, you know, focus on getting some things to accomplish.

449
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 1: Uh and as well as you know, make sure that

450
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:14,080
Speaker 1: you you get your information for yourself. You know, you

451
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 1: have a lot of people who don't even turn on

452
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 1: the news, you know, most of their information is coming

453
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:23,879
Speaker 1: from just social media. That is so true. That is

454
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 1: so true because if any times, any time right now

455
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 1: you should be hunkering down and getting the actual facts.

456
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,199
Speaker 1: So I mean, I even watch Fox News now. I

457
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,520
Speaker 1: want everything. I want all the information. Now, I'm not

458
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,160
Speaker 1: trying to be You're not gonna sell me over on CNN,

459
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,359
Speaker 1: or you're not gonna sell me over here on ABCO.

460
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,560
