Hello today we're going to talk to Antoine Jenkins. Antoine Jenkins is going to give us some key gems of being an entrepreneur and what made him successful today. In this episode he explains the pros and cons of being an entrepreneur, how your mindset can affect your success in a business, and the effects of having a team. Antoine is a 22 year old entrepreneur and is Minnesota number one luxury shoe designer. Ant has made shoes for a lot of well known artists such as Roddy Rich, Lil keed, Lil skies, and the actress Storm Reid from Euphoria. In this episode we’re also going to talk about what motivates him, who he looks up to for inspiration, and what made him want to stop going to school and pursue his dream in shoe designing and taking the art route.

We also discussed psychographics and how important of a role they play when really learning who your target market is and how they react to different things. We also dig into values and how they can impact the company and how you can play a role in impacting the community’s value system through different programs. Lastly, she discusses how important customer satisfaction is when gaining and retailing a customer base. When looking into customer satisfaction she talks about how season ticket holders play a large role in this and how they go the extra mile for them. We then conclude the interview with Kelcee giving advice on the importance of networking and the importance of listening to your consumer when marketing.

We had the opportunity to interview Karla Sayler for our podcast. Karla is an entrepreneur who started out as a Nurse at St. Alexis Hospital. Karla now owns Dermacare Clinic, which is a skincare clinic. She is also in real estate renovating and renting out properties. With her 14 years of experience she has encountered some bumps in the road but now came out on top. Throughout the interview we learned about the ways the two businesses are different and how she manages them both. She talked about what marketing strategies work and how consumer behavior can change depending on the target market. We also touched on habitual buying behavior and how she uses the relationships and trust she has built to make her customers choices easy and effortless to keep coming back. She believes strongly in networking yourself to have a further reach in your community and in turn have more people to come to you as customers. It is important to reach customers on all platforms such as social media, print ads, word of mouth, etc. We really enjoyed talking with Karla and got to more about the world of the business and marketing mix.
