Celebrating our student successes is one of our favorite things to do! Have you heard of Cory's Produce? A Davenport West High School student isn't just excelling in his studies but has also made a significant mark in our community with his entrepreneurial spirit. Cory Carter started his own fresh produce stand at the age of 13. What started as a passion project has flourished into a thriving small business, celebrating its fifth successful year of providing locally-grown produce to our community. At DCSD, Cory is known for always having his cowboy hat on and now his produce has made a name for itself in our community. We're proud to see how far his hard work has brought him.

When pitching ViaVerve, I often get asked the question: "Where does your giveback incentive of water well construction come from, and how is it relative towards your business?" Well, this question I asked during the Morrissette Entrepreneurship speaker series featuring Christopher Misch back in February sparked me to fight real world problems through my business. (Question showed below) The idea of a portion of our profits going towards well construction will allow us to replenish the water that we are using from our community. On top of this, we would also simultaneously fight the issue of the water crisis as these wells would be built in communities that currently do not have clean drinking water. By supporting ViaVerve, you will help us meet our goal of launching in August of 2024! Ultimately, this means that you will be speeding up the process of allowing us to start this journey of fighting the water crisis while revolutionizing the energy drink industry. Join us in making a difference.

The Cannon Community is 🚀 Empowering Youth Through Entrepreneurship 🌟 What to Expect: Witness the magic as participants pitch their one-of-a-kind lemonade stand business ideas, vying for the coveted 1st Place in Lemonade Day Houston's Best of the Zest Contest. A panel of expert judges, soon to be announced, will provide valuable feedback, fostering growth and learning. Why is this important? Entrepreneurship plays in shaping the future of our communities, especially among the youth. 💡 Entrepreneurial Mindset: Exposure to a thriving ecosystem is the catalyst for cultivating an entrepreneurial mindset among the youth. It's more than just a career path; it's a way of thinking. The ability to think creatively, embrace risk, and take initiative becomes second nature. 🚀 Innovation and Problem-Solving: Thriving ecosystems encourage youth to think beyond conventional boundaries. They become problem-solvers, and innovators who look at challenges not as roadblocks but as opportunities to create meaningful change. 🌐 Cultural Change: As our youth embraces the entrepreneurial culture, a significant cultural shift unfolds. Attitudes toward risk-taking, innovation, and entrepreneurship undergo transformation, not only impacting the business landscape but society at large. It's a ripple effect that creates a more dynamic and forward-thinking community. Let's continue to support and nurture the entrepreneurial spirit among our youth. #LemonadeDayHouston #YoungEntrepreneurs #BestOfTheZest #EntrepreneurialJourney #EntrepreneurshipJourney #StartUpSuccess #InnovationNation #BusinessMindset #VentureForward #FounderLife #RiskTaker #EntrepreneurialSpirit #BoldIdeas #StartupCulture #SuccessMindset #DreamBigWorkHard #InspireTheFuture #BusinessInnovation #EntrepreneurialLife #CreativeThinking #LegacyBuilder #GameChanger #SmallBusinessHustle #DreamBelieveAchieve #SucceedTogether #BusinessAdventure
One of my favorite days of the year coming up this Saturday! If you want to be motivated, impressed and entertained, come join us for the Lemonade Day 'Best of the Zest' Pitch Event. I learn something new from these amazing young entrepreneurs every year! (Also, the Canes chicken wings will no doubt be flowing). See you there!

Love this helpful guide from Arkansas Small Business and Technology Development Center! They also have guides on the 6 steps to starting a business, starting a side hustle, starting a childcare business, hiring your first employee, funding, & regulations/taxes. What other startup guides would you like to see? Maybe something for artists and makers? https://lnkd.in/g_fH_mem
Shortly after I started at the Arkansas Small Business and Technology Development Center, I began editing a great little guide that was originally created by Angela Gardner to help her clients at the Arkansas Business Navigator learn to open and operate a food truck business. Now that guide is a resource-packed 20-page e-book that is free and easy to access on the ASBTDC website at asbtdc.org/e-books. It's so fun to see it published! And I love seeing a "legacy" of Angela's time at ASBTDC and ABN preserved for other entrepreneurs to learn from! Also, pro-tip: My coworker and ASBTDC Business Consultant Nicolas M. has a whole folder of additional food truck resources that he uses with his clients. He's definitely our in-house food truck mastermind. So check out the guide and call Nicolas when you've got your plan together and need help getting started!

What's Your Training Challenge? Today's highlight: mastering the down-stay at the bustling entrance of Costco. T'Challa, my German Shepherd service dog in training, faced significant distractions but stayed focused. Out of seven attempts, our best was 2.5 minutes—shy of our 3-minute goal. This journey mirrors entrepreneurial success. It’s all about practice and persistence. Every small step brings us closer to our ultimate goal. What are you practicing to master? Stay committed. Elevate your challenges. Achieve your dreams. #AlwaysImproving #ConsistencyIsKey #EntrepreneurialJourney #GrowthMindset #KeepAtIt

I got into marketing for the creative side, but if you know me - you know branded swag is what really gets me excited 😂.
