1
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:16,479
Speaker 1: We're going to start something called Housewives University, because for

2
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 1: every one hundred housewives that have launched a business, I

3
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:22,520
Speaker 1: could give you ninety eight where the business has failed.

4
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,160
Speaker 1: So we can learn from successes and we can learn

5
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: from failures. I've learned way more from my failures in

6
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:32,120
Speaker 1: business and other people's failures then I have other people's

7
00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 1: successes because everything looks easy, and when someone else succeeds,

8
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:39,879
Speaker 1: it looks easy. Let's think about what has worked and

9
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 1: what hasn't worked overall. Candy Burris has been on the

10
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:47,240
Speaker 1: Housewives for years. She's a musician and she has stuck

11
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:52,640
Speaker 1: to her music career. It's a business. It's not a product.

12
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 1: It's not an invention. It's not something where she really

13
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 1: makes It is something where she can make money when

14
00:00:58,440 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 1: she's not in the room, because if she has a

15
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 1: that she's published, then she can still make residual income

16
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:05,679
Speaker 1: on it. But it's something that she's doing that she

17
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 1: can always rely on and she can always get paid

18
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 1: to do it. Has Candy Burr's had any businesses where

19
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:15,560
Speaker 1: it's a product that you can still buy, meaning she's

20
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 1: a business person that I respect because she's stuck to

21
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 1: her roots. In singing. She hasn't like become a chef

22
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,479
Speaker 1: on the show, although she does own restaurants. Oh, Candy

23
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 1: owns restaurants, so she's gone into the restaurant business. Have

24
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: those remained successful? Has there been a product line that's

25
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 1: come out of that? Where's the residual success? The true

26
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 1: success of someone in business is when they're making money

27
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,199
Speaker 1: when they're not in the room. So how is Candy

28
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 1: Burris making money when she's not in the room. Does

29
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: she have a product line for those restaurants? Does she

30
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 1: have a food product line that has come from those restaurants?

31
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 1: Are those restaurants all still open and are they all

32
00:01:55,560 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: making money? Because that would be the true test. So

33
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 1: Housewives University is going to be a business class based

34
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:14,959
Speaker 1: on housewives errors in business and their successes. So each

35
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: week we're going to start with a different housewife and

36
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 1: talk about how they've thrived and how they've failed and why.

37
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 1: Ramona Singer she had made over a million dollars by

38
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 1: the time she was thirty. She purchased her own Housewives house.

39
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,640
Speaker 1: It probably costs less than a million dollars and it

40
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: is now worth probably five to six million dollars. Realistically,

41
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 1: five to six million dollars in the Hampton's. So she

42
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 1: was on the show in the beginning. She was one

43
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: of the early people that actually had a business in

44
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 1: the beginning, and it was her husband's business that did

45
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 1: religious articles, and she quickly jumped in and was doing

46
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 1: religious jewelry crosses and it was called True Faith Jewelry

47
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: with an E. And she went to HSN a couple

48
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,800
Speaker 1: of times. I think she did okay, but HSN is very,

49
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: very tricky, and you get caught inside a pyramid and

50
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: you can't get out, and just because you sell, then

51
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:19,839
Speaker 1: you order more shit and you want to go back

52
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 1: on and you're stuck with the inventory, and it's not

53
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 1: It can be a model for some people like Isaac

54
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 1: Musrahi or Lori Goldstein her name is, or certain people,

55
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,360
Speaker 1: but it's a world and you have to live there.

56
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 1: And Isaac was on is on KVC. But you have

57
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: to live there, dedicate your whole life to it. Be

58
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: at at four o'clock in the morning and it's fucking crazy.

59
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: And I left because I it was not for me.

60
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 1: I hated it, I really did. It just wasn't for

61
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: my personality. It's soul crushing, so she did that a

62
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 1: little and then she was trying to sell and it

63
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 1: was before e commerce and online, and like, I can't

64
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: really give you a big mistake. It was just she

65
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 1: didn't nail it. She didn't land it, you know. And

66
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 1: the name was good because they started in religious articles,

67
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: but then she made it into fashion. So now you've

68
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: got like a religious adjacent name with fashion, costume, jewelry.

69
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 1: And she wasn't that famous then, and she had no

70
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 1: place to sell it. It just didn't land. She didn't

71
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 1: have good distribution. She didn't have good distribution. And doesn't

72
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,159
Speaker 1: matter how good your ideas or how good your product is,

73
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 1: because the product was fine, you need good distribution. You

74
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 1: just saying it's a great idea and having good marketing

75
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 1: and a publicist will not move the needle. Little shitty

76
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 1: press articles will not move the needle. You have to

77
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 1: kill yourself on it. And also she didn't have good distribution.

78
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,159
Speaker 1: And that was in two thousand and five. The world

79
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,599
Speaker 1: has changed drastically since then, but the principle of distribution

80
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: has not changed. You need good distribution. The distribution platforms

81
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 1: have changed. So now if you have amazing viral stuff

82
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 1: on TikTok, doesn't matter. Where are they buying it, Where

83
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 1: is it being distributing, Where is it being distributed? Do

84
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 1: you have a good website? How are they buying it?

85
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 1: So many times I have things that are so amazing,

86
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,279
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. They like it, they love the idea,

87
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,159
Speaker 1: they want it. Now, where's the distribution? I have a

88
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,720
Speaker 1: wine right now. I've promoted it because something got out

89
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 1: in the paparazzi in Europe. But like I'm annoyed because

90
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 1: people are engaging in my posts, but it doesn't The

91
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 1: distribution is just getting up. Now, in a month we'll

92
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:22,599
Speaker 1: have amazing distribution. Distribution matters way more than your idea.

93
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: So then Ramona launches years later Ageless by Ramona. These

94
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 1: are all businesses that have happened since they've been housewives.

95
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 1: I don't need to discuss her liquidation business when she

96
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 1: was thirty. Romona's in her sixties, so she late years later.

97
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 1: We hear Ramona talk about Ageless in twenty eighteen. She's

98
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 1: in her sixties, she's launching. She's launching a beauty line.

99
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: She looks good, She's had many treatments. She looks good.

100
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: It's just not the demo like who she's speaking to

101
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 1: women in their sixties. Everybody wants to get the twenty

102
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: five year old, the thirty five year old, the eighteen

103
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 1: to forty nine year old. Like the sweet spot is

104
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 1: the mom. She drives, an explorer, she buys ovens, she cooks,

105
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:06,480
Speaker 1: she cleans. That's who the advertisers want. They don't want

106
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 1: the sixty five year old. They'll take the viewers. But

107
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 1: it's not even counted in the demo. Advertisers don't even

108
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 1: pay for that woman. So Ramona's in her sixties, and yes,

109
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 1: people have different ages watch her, but for her to

110
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: be ageless and you know, skew like she's got it,

111
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: she doesn't have that young audience. And so that's why

112
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,599
Speaker 1: it's gonna be hard for her to do a skincare line.

113
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:32,280
Speaker 1: And I know she struggled with it, so that I'm

114
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:36,039
Speaker 1: gonna say has failed because that just it didn't. It didn't.

115
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 1: It didn't Land. I've never heard of it. I've never

116
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 1: seen it. It could be a secret society that buys it,

117
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: but it definitely didn't Land. It definitely didn't make her

118
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 1: any money. So True Faith Jewelry didn't make her any money.

119
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,159
Speaker 1: Ageless buy Ramona didn't make her any money after Truth

120
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:53,559
Speaker 1: Faith Jewelry, before Pino Grigio, that she had Ramona singer

121
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:58,159
Speaker 1: Pino Grigio. She had True Renewal, a skincare line that

122
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 1: I saw at her house. She showed me the packaging.

123
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 1: I'm sure all the products were great. Doesn't matter. If

124
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 1: the product's great, doesn't matter, if the name is great,

125
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 1: doesn't matter, if if the idea is great. She showed

126
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: me the products on the heels of True Faith Jewelry.

127
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 1: She comes out with True Renewal skincare, and it doesn't

128
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 1: even spell the True the same. There's no link to

129
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 1: these brands. And now I know they're jewelry and skincare

130
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 1: and they're different. But like, she's not a well known

131
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,679
Speaker 1: person in either of these spaces. So she's gonna launch

132
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 1: two brands. She's launching this one when the other one

133
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 1: hasn't succeeded or launched, and now she's launching this one

134
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,239
Speaker 1: with True spelled differently, and it's confusing. It's a confusion

135
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 1: in the marketplace. Wait a minute, you did True Faith

136
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 1: doesn't have anything to do with that, but it's True Renewal,

137
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 1: but it's spelled differently. The logos doing like should you

138
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: connect to them. Should it have been True Faith and

139
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 1: True Renewal and at least they're spelled similar the logo similer.

140
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: Should her whole overall over arching brand have been True

141
00:07:56,320 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 1: and then it's True Faith Jewelry, True Faith skincare Like

142
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 1: both brands failed. It doesn't matter, but like it wasn't

143
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: even a good attempt at branding and at a person

144
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 1: like saying to you, I have multiple brands, so where

145
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 1: does this live? And I'm telling you guys. We talked

146
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 1: about her lack of distribution. She had also a lack

147
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: of fluid marketing. It was confusion if I start, you know,

148
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 1: that's why I have Rewives and under Rewives that one umbrella,

149
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 1: we're gonna have Housewives University. It makes sense. It's about

150
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 1: housewives and we have rerants because it's under Rewives. I

151
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 1: have just Be unders Be, I have just Be Rants.

152
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 1: I'm coming out with just Be Influenced, which is a

153
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 1: podcast about, you know, deinfluencing effectively like things have to

154
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 1: there's thought in that. Why didn't I throw Housewives reviewing

155
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 1: under just Be because it'd be confusing. It's a different brand.

156
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 1: It's not about just Be. It's not me just talking

157
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: about topics. It's like I'm talking about housewift. So let's

158
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 1: create a new world. Branding is critical and marketing is critical.

159
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 1: I am I have an NBA in marketing. Okay, I'm

160
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 1: just telling you I don't have an MBA. I didn't

161
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 1: go to I am an expert at this. I just

162
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 1: it's I'm a savant at this the way someone else

163
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: is a savant at miles Travel Miles or you know,

164
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 1: fucking quen Wa or whatever that I am a savant

165
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: at this. Ramona had no marketing fluidity. It was all

166
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 1: over the place. It was slapping your name and coming

167
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: up with something different. So those failed. She's very smart.

168
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 1: She's made money, she's been smart in certain things, and

169
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 1: she's called herself a man of all things. She is

170
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 1: not a mavan of all things. She's succeeded by her

171
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,080
Speaker 1: thirties in her liquidation business because she's a business person

172
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 1: and she's a fucking hustler. And you want to ask

173
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: her about your life insurance, you want to ask her

174
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 1: about your four oh one K. She's great at that.

175
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: She's better at that than I am. She's better at

176
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 1: things that I am. But I have people that work

177
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 1: with me that are better than that that I am.

178
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 1: But Ramona is not good at fluidity in the brand

179
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,679
Speaker 1: marketing distribution. She just throw it up and thinks it's

180
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 1: a good idea because the Housewives made people feel the

181
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 1: need to do that. You don't have to be time

182
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 1: to flush it out because you're worried because Bethani was

183
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 1: on the cover of Forbes magazine. Why didn't I grab

184
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,440
Speaker 1: my bag? I need to grab a business and some

185
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 1: dummy person partner. That sounded good in the meeting that

186
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,839
Speaker 1: they told me they were gonna gave me some guarantee.

187
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 1: I did the deal. Why it's better than not having

188
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 1: a deal. I forgot to tell you. Ramona also started

189
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 1: a restaurant with some guy. So she started a restaurant

190
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 1: with some random guy. And then Dorinda said it was

191
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 1: supposed to be they approach Direnda, who cares. None of

192
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 1: you want any of it. It's a fucking dog. We

193
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,320
Speaker 1: shot a scene at the restaurant. It never happened again,

194
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 1: and she didn't really own part of the restaurant. It

195
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,079
Speaker 1: was probably a place that said you can say that

196
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 1: to get us awareness and we'll give you a piece,

197
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: And there was no piece because that's the housewives. Let's

198
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 1: pretend we own something to all fucking grab whatever you

199
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 1: could say you own because you need storyline and you

200
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 1: want a chance to make some money and promote something.

201
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 1: So this is all thrown together and it's not well

202
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:03,440
Speaker 1: thought out, and overall, I give Ramona's business acumen as

203
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 1: a human being a solid B. I give her business

204
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 1: acumen as a housewife with new ideas flushing it through

205
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,839
Speaker 1: a D. This is a D. I finally land on

206
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 1: Ramona singer pino Grigio, which at one point when I

207
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 1: had them mentioned it all. See with her she was

208
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,199
Speaker 1: doing five hundred cases, less than five hundred cas, like

209
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,680
Speaker 1: four hundred cases in a year, and she can blame

210
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,320
Speaker 1: her partner. Probably was her fucking partner. Doesn't matter. No

211
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,679
Speaker 1: one bought it. They didn't have good distribution. She probably

212
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 1: didn't have a good partner. She slapped her name on

213
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,320
Speaker 1: it didn't have authenticity. You don't believe that she Just

214
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 1: because you drink a lot of pino grigio doesn't mean

215
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 1: you really understand the space and being an on a

216
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 1: phile and are with a good wine maker and that

217
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 1: this is a good idea and you don't want your

218
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 1: name as a housewife when people are fucking ripping wigs

219
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 1: off and flipping tables. You don't want your own name

220
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 1: on this wine. It's like a liability. It's stupid, and

221
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 1: you shouldn't name a wine after like a person. People

222
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 1: want to think it's some gorgeous, beautiful, esoteric vineyard some

223
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:04,440
Speaker 1: life we're gonna buy into some Napa valley, weird name

224
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 1: that you've never heard of. You know, Jordan Winery is

225
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 1: a family name. You're picturing wealth, you're picturing grapes, you're

226
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:13,440
Speaker 1: picturing you know, people that were in downt Nabby the

227
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,680
Speaker 1: drank White, not Ramona Singer, fucking Pino Griggio. It's just

228
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: the worst idea. The whole thing gets a D minus.

229
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:21,559
Speaker 1: I can't even give it a D. It gets a

230
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 1: D minus. The whole thing is just actually, I'm gonna

231
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 1: give it a D because true faith jewelry was connected

232
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: to something that existed with her husband who had good

233
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 1: probably manufacturing. And no, the whole thing gets a D minus.

234
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 1: It's a D minus in the Housewives University class. My

235
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 1: producers they're they're like viewers, thinking that certain things are

236
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 1: successful when they don't realize they're not successful. One of

237
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,320
Speaker 1: them on here that is successful. It was Zaren Fabrics

238
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:48,679
Speaker 1: and Jill Zaren. She's got a successful business, but she

239
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,079
Speaker 1: didn't even really use the show. We're gonna get into it.

240
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,319
Speaker 1: We're gonna get knee deep into Housewives University and who

241
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 1: succeeded and who failed, and you're gonna learn a lot,

242
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,439
Speaker 1: a lot more than you think. And because you have

243
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,079
Speaker 1: a website that has pictures of jewelry that you could

244
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 1: buy one necklace that someone goes to order in China,

245
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,240
Speaker 1: where someone goes and buys stuff on Ali Baba and

246
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 1: slaps a Sonia label in it, that's not a thriving,

247
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: successful business necessarily. So we're gonna get knee deep into it.

248
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 1: And the Housewives are the ultimate scammers of fake businesses.

249
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 1: I have been on television and had to have real

250
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 1: business conversations with people, and it's a fucking fake business.

251
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, not sorry, it's a fake business. I know

252
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 1: it's a fake business. It's a storyline business. And the

253
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 1: list will go on and on, and I'm gonna be

254
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 1: fucking harsh because business is relentless and I'm not gonna

255
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 1: fuck around here and play ah. But it's really cute

256
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 1: and it was a cute, and there's no cute. You

257
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,040
Speaker 1: make money, you don't. It's successful, you don't. There's no

258
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:44,199
Speaker 1: cute in Housewives University. There's you have a successful business

259
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:46,560
Speaker 1: or you don't. What you do and what you don't do,

260
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 1: And this I can speak on. I have businesses that

261
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:56,320
Speaker 1: have distribution worldwide and in a year, those small tiny businesses,

262
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: I'll maybe make fifty thousand dollars. And that's not a

263
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 1: say it's it's not a successful business. It's a it's

264
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 1: a business. It's a thing. It's part of my licensing

265
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 1: business overall, which is successful. And some of those things

266
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,439
Speaker 1: make a you know, provide a million dollars for me

267
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 1: a year. But something that's throwing off fifty thousand dollars,

268
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 1: which is more successful than Ramona's Sonia or any of

269
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,320
Speaker 1: those businesses a year, is not a successful business. Like

270
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 1: we're going to define a successful business that like you

271
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 1: could you could support yourself on it. It's a real functioning,

272
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 1: thriving business. Most of these businesses are not successful. So

273
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 1: we're going to learn a lot about what not to

274
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 1: do in Housewives University and what to do
