Felecia Prince came from a family of teachers and thought she might want to branch out and do something else. And while she dabbled in various things from marketing to fashion design. But she would ultimately find that teaching provides a creative outlet for all of her passions, and to create an incentive system that got kids of all stripes participating in the classroom. This is a great listen for parents, educators and team leaders on incentivizing others.Find more about Felecia here:https://www.amazon.com/Class-Store-Felecia-George-Prince/dp/1950894037https://www.linkedin.com/in/felecia-prince-2a3303193https://www.instagram.com/designs_by_felecia_/?hl=enhttps://www.facebook.com/felecia.g.prince/The UKnowAdamTsang podcast spotlights both veteran and budding entrepreneurs -- especially those local to the Savannah/Statesboro region.

Today, I'm again joined by BIG's Director of Business Incubation himself, Patrick Woock, and the topic this time is all about succession -- i.e. the handing off of a business from one person to another.

Good morning! The podcast studio has been revamped to give a cozier vibe, and the first guest to enjoy the new setup is one Jake Nicholson, founder of ScoopMe. His story is the perfect case of identifying a problem in need of a solution, and following through to provide one. College and University students don't necessarily have the cash to spare for Uber or Lyft, so a more affordable alternative that is fine-tuned to suit students' needs and preferences was a ripe opportunity that Jake executed on perfectly. He's an up-and-comer still in school, but already getting a lot done -- keep an eye on this guy!Find more here:https://www.scoopme.app/https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacob-nicholson-112943235/The UKnowAdamTsang podcast spotlights both veteran and budding entrepreneurs -- especially those local to the Savannah/Statesboro region.

Good morning! Today's episode is with Vanessa Wagner, representing Georgia Power's Community & Economic Development Marketing team. Small and minority-owned business owners in Georgia, pay attention! Many budding entrepreneurs think they have to pull themselves up by the bootstraps and take on the world on their own. Doing so can be a big mistake, because there are in fact a wealth of resources and programs out dedicated to community development and aiding startups (such as the very Business Innovation Group building that this podcast is recorded in!) Vanessa will walk through some of these opportunities -- and while the examples given are for Georgia, this advice applies widely!Find more about Vanessa here:https://www.selectgeorgia.com/about-us/our-team/marketing-team/vanessa-wagner/https://www.linkedin.com/in/vanessamwagner/https://growgeorgia.com/The UKnowAdamTsang podcast spotlights both veteran and budding entrepreneurs -- especially those local to the Savannah/Statesboro region.
