1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:05,920
Speaker 1: Little nas X present on Friday morning, hours away. Will

2
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:10,600
Speaker 1: be at the Keya Forum with you guys. I'm very

3
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,600
Speaker 1: excited for that. Now I have to ask you, Sissy,

4
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 1: you've got several kids. Is face painting a big deal

5
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:19,439
Speaker 1: at your house? I have three kids, right, there's a

6
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:24,000
Speaker 1: couple of Um. Yeah, when we go to birthday parties

7
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:27,560
Speaker 1: and they have somebody that's painting faces, it is a

8
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 1: big deal. Like they want to get their faces painted.

9
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:33,559
Speaker 1: It's exciting. Mark was telling me that kids, families will

10
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:35,880
Speaker 1: stand in line for hours to get their face painting. Yeah.

11
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:37,880
Speaker 1: And you know what I've noticed is that some people

12
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,919
Speaker 1: um or some artists that do the face painting UM,

13
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:44,960
Speaker 1: at least what I've experienced at some birthday parties, instead

14
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,480
Speaker 1: of doing a line, they'll get the kids. I'd be like, okay,

15
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 1: who wants to get their face painted? They'll write numbers

16
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:52,280
Speaker 1: on all the kids so then they don't have to

17
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 1: wait in line. So they'll say, so, then you're you're

18
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 1: number one, your number two, your number two. Then the

19
00:00:57,520 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 1: kids can go back and play and then they come

20
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: back for their thing, and they come back to their turn.

21
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:03,279
Speaker 1: So I was like, oh, that's an actually smart thing

22
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 1: to do. It's like the buzzer system at some restaurants

23
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 1: exactly when and then when you're at the Delhi. Oh,

24
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 1: I think they're buzzing me. I'm a hustle, all right.

25
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 1: Don Ballard Kennon of Inglewood joining us now. So Don

33
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 1: the part I always want to hear. What were you

34
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 1: doing before you did this? Before I got started, I

35
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: was working at a public library. I've been therefore about

36
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: ten years or so. Um, I am still working in government.

37
00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 1: But since left the library, and what may did you

38
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: realize this is a real business face painting is something

39
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: that can really become a company. Well, um, I've never

40
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: had my face painting as a child, but I've always

41
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 1: loved art, um and had taken art classes, had been

42
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 1: offered an art scholarship. UM, and I just happened to

43
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 1: be browsing YouTube and watching investing videos when UM one

44
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,800
Speaker 1: of the hosts mentioned face paint as a side gig,

45
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 1: and I just kind of went down a rabbit hole

46
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 1: of tutorials and found myself, you know, starting a business.

47
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 1: I instantly you fell for it, and I knew it was.

48
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: People make requests like if there's a Rams fan or

49
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 1: a Bruins fan, can you do requests? Oh? Absolutely, I

50
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 1: can paint pretty much, UM, whatever comes to mind. I

51
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 1: do do freehand art and then also UM for larger events,

52
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 1: I create stint so I create my own customer stint fols.

53
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:02,639
Speaker 1: So yet has a child ever not been happy when

54
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: they've had their face painted? I don't think it's possible.

55
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: It's very very rare. UM. Sometimes you know, kids will

56
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 1: make special requests and they kind of have an idea

57
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 1: of what they want in mind, but they can't articulate

58
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: it to you. UM. So you know, once you try

59
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 1: a couple of times that, if they're usually satisfied almost

60
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 1: all ways makes me happy. I'm looking at the pictures,

61
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,560
