Guest Speaker - Shadrach White
Shadrach White is one of the most inspiring guest speakers that I got a chance to listen to. He presented to us his journey from a copier technician to a 100% owner of his company, CloudPWR. He asked this question at the beginning of the presentation, which one of us are in sales? In fact, every one of us is actually in sale because we all have something to sale such as an idea to a product. His first company is called Rucker Parker Basketball Gear which sold Jersey short. He was not just passionate about the basketball gear, also the stories behind it. So, his strategic moves were to honor an old-time basketball player whose family lives in Brooklyn, New York. The family was touched by his offer because no other companies had ever done that, they just took the name without any gratitude.
His story during the time of CloudPWR gave us lots of great advice. One of them was who should get paid first, and the importance of it on managing a company. Also, he mentioned about not being cheap while hiring a lawyer. Because for every million that you make, you will get a lawsuit from someone who's trying to get a piece of it. In order to make himself a 100% owner of the company, he must have been put a lot of effort while processing the workload carefully and being well prepared for the unfortunate.
