They are 170 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 1: your clients, and they need to treat it as such. 171 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 1: With it and like even with the hairstyles, like these days, 172 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: it's so many fucking rules. And I'm telling you it's 173 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. Y'all can tell me if I'm wrong. 174 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to be prejudiced against my own people, 175 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: but I feel like it is only or solely the 176 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,319 Speaker 1: black people. It is only black people that will be like, yo, 177 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: you gotta come with your hair wash. Yeah, And I've 178 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: I've heard that countless times. I've actually, on a personal note, 179 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: I've actually experienced a young lady. I wanted the book 180 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 1: and get my head done, and I saw on her 181 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 1: on her page, on her website, whatever it was, I 182 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: saw that it says you must come with your hair washed. 183 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: Now I've reached out to her.

Now, is there any way that I could 186 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: pay an additional fee where you can shampoo my hair? 187 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: And what it say on the website, what it say 188 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: on the website, you know, what's this? Never mine? Because 189 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:17,319 Speaker 1: I don't even I don't EVENANNT come to get my head. 190 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 1: She said that to you? Yeah, on the website. Yeah, like, 191 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 1: did you read the website? I just I just mentioned 192 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 1: that in the beginning that I see that it says 193 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 1: on here blah blah blah blah blah, asking but is 194 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,599 Speaker 1: there any way I can pay anything additional? I'm not 195 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 1: trying to get, like just an option for me to 196 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: get for you to wash my hair. But some people 197 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 1: have that option. Idn't know if it was an option. 198 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 1: That's why I asked the clothes mouth don't get fed. 199 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 1: But because of how she came off at me, like bitch, 200 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: I don't even want to come and get my hair 201 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 1: done no more at this point because I'm end up. 202 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 1: Let me shoot out you for that add to like definitely, 203 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 1: like a lot of black black businesses have problems with 204 00:10:55,600 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: like you were saying, hospitality, they don't have it. Now 205 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: we're gonna take a brief break. You can go grab 206 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 1: you something to eat, something to drink, something like that, 207 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: and then it's always so much tension and so much hostility, 208 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:17,839 Speaker 1: like you didn't want to get up and come to 209 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: work today, But this is your motherfucking business. You work here, 210 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: even if it ain't your business, you work you you 211 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: even in any event where you couldn't get another job, 212 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 1: but this one, this is the only job you could get. 213 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: It should be thankful because you still have a job. 214 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: There are people with no fucking job. Act like you 215 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 1: like what you do. You know what I mean? You 216 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: could be so much further in life, and then you 217 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,679 Speaker 1: don't know how you would make a person's day, you know, 218 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 1: just being nice, you know what I'm saying. So like 219 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 1: customer service, that ship matters. That was another reason why 220 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 1: I said I didn't want to support black businesses. But 221 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: I need to you understand, I'm gonna keep saying it. 222 00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 1: Understand I solely meant certain black businesses. I don't want 223 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 1: to support all black businesses because all black businesses, in 224 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: my opinion, are not worthy of my money. Now y'all 225 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,560 Speaker 1: can say the same ship about me. I have doctor Who. 226 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 1: That's a fitness apparel line that I have as a 227 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 1: wage trainers, UH, workout gear, all types of ship like that. Now, 228 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: if you've ever received any any you know, bad service 229 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 1: from me or whatever, I will want to be the 230 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 1: first to know we could fix it. I'll get it together. 231 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:32,599 Speaker 1: I've never given anybody bad customer service, me or anybody 232 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 1: from my team. You know what I mean, but I 233 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: would definitely be open to any criticism. That's another thing 234 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 1: black They do not like it. They feel like you're 235 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: just trying to put them down. You can come to 236 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: them in the nicest way possible, like hey, you know, 237 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 1: you know, and you could be a business owner, just 238 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 1: like from one business owner to another, like, hey, you know, 239 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:58,719 Speaker 1: I'm a business owner to like, I don't want you 240 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 1: to think I'm trying to knock you, but try to like, well, 241 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: I run my ship, how round my ship? And you 242 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 1: run your ship? How you run your ship? Like whoa? 243 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: Like hold up, Like I'm just trying to I'm just 244 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 1: trying to give you a little insight, like you know, 245 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:14,319 Speaker 1: and I feel like some people are just way better 246 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 1: business savvy than other people. Like everybody don't got it. 247 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 1: Everybody don't got it. Like some people are better off 248 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 1: like in the in in the background, like maybe doing 249 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 1: paperwork or something like that, not physically dealing with people, 250 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 1: and you know, like okay, So like for instance, when 251 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 1: I first started this ship, I wasn't good because I 252 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 1: wasn't this patient with people. I really didn't like dealing with, 253 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: you know, being approached about whether something went wrong or not. 254 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: So not even with doctor who I'm talking about. Like 255 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,080 Speaker 1: when I first started that, I didn't never want to 256 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 1: talk to anybody about business. So I put my cousin 257 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:54,079 Speaker 1: in place to run my business because she's always been 258 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 1: business savvy. My cousin London, she's my assistant as well. 259 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 1: She runs a lot of my business is for me, 260 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,560 Speaker 1: and that's who I put in place. Until I became 261 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 1: business savvy enough to, you know, work as an active CEO, 262 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 1: I was behind the scenes. I'm like, look, I'll pay you. 263 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:13,560 Speaker 1: I put you in place to do this ship right 264 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 1: here because I don't want to deal with nobody telling 265 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 1: me that down. Like this ship now, like that ship now, 266 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 1: because I'm a want slapp ship like that. But when 267 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: you grow out of that type of ship and you 268 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: really like you it's not for everybody. Being running a 269 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: business is not for everybody. You have to have a 270 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 1: great amount of patients. You have to have a perseverance. 271 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 1: You have to have endurance because you will endure a 272 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: whole lot. You would endure broke times, you will endure 273 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: the grind, you will endure it all. I'm telling you 274 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 1: were running to nasty people.

It was 343 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 1: one of their representatives or whatever. It was, somebody my 344 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,239 Speaker 1: point of contact. I was doing Brandon Bassoning for them, 345 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 1: and I that I asked for a certain pair of 346 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:33,720 Speaker 1: jeans to be said to me because I'm a person 347 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,399 Speaker 1: that I only wear it with looks good on me, 348 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 1: you know, like everybody should you know.

Of so, um I did that. 352 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 1: I was like, yo, uh, I don't like this what 353 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:52,920 Speaker 1: y'all sent me, and something like that, like that's not 354 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: what I asked for and it's too big and the 355 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 1: pants or droopy, and the girl kind of got smart 356 00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,639 Speaker 1: and I'm like, well, listen, y'all, as is doing all this, 357 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: I ain't even got you all damn tags, y'all don't 358 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 1: have tags. Y'all basically bought these James from such and 359 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 1: such and put your name on the packaging.

And even though I was 363 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,679 Speaker 1: being smart, that was still some criticism for the owner. 364 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:24,880 Speaker 1: But I was being smart because she was being smart 365 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 1: to me. And I'm telling you, like, a couple of 366 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:30,920 Speaker 1: months down the line, they had their own tags in 367 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: their fucking and they have the you know, like the 368 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: the tag lists.

That's a 387 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:47,640 Speaker 1: that's another one. UM. Good customer service, UM can take 388 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 1: constructive criticism and you know exactly yo. I've never yo, 389 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:55,679 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, I've never heard anyone talk bad about 390 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: you know, the service or customer service or even when 391 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 1: when the people give criticism, she'll listen like because she's 392 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: actually good with kids as well. Um super si yo. 393 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 1: I remember keep calling her my damn cousin. I love 394 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 1: them to down.

I remember crayon case wasn't that big and 396 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: she just yed those women they're best friends. Actually, I 397 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:25,159 Speaker 1: an't even to cut you off. That's another thing with 398 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 1: certain black people. They have these businesses that try to 399 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,400 Speaker 1: tear other black businesses down, but then you have people 400 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 1: like Judy and Super that are helping to build one 401 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,239 Speaker 1: another up. I mean, granted, you know Judy was up 402 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:44,360 Speaker 1: and Super was her friend. She brought her friend up 403 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: with her. She didn't try to tell her down, you 404 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: know what I mean. So it's just like we need 405 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 1: more events because there's so many black businesses that it 406 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 1: is sitting there trying to tell each other down instead 407 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 1: of trying to build each other up. That's like I've 408 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: seen this mean it's ay and um. If you ever 409 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 1: feel like your business idea won't be successful because it's 410 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: other people with that same business, walk down the bride 411 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 1: out right.
