Today’s guest, a Columbus Student Entrepreneur Award winner, is involved in the student entrepreneur program of EO. Currently pursuing his undergraduate degree at Ohio State, David Butcher is also running a business called FlyBy BBQ. In this episode, David talks about the start of his current business, what inspired him to become an entrepreneur, the various business plan competitions he’s been involved in, and he shares some advice for young people who want to become entrepreneurs. Key Takeaways: [:47] David shares how he got to where he is now: His entrepreneurial ambitions stemmed from his family, watching his dad turn his normal job into a business that not only supported his family, but also gave opportunity to other community members. The past few years have been David trying to figure out exactly what it is he wanted to do. This culminated into his current project: FlyBy BBQ. [3:56] While he was working on a different idea for a business plan competition at Ohio State, his meetings led to many observations about how people like to eat. FlyBy is working to revitalize barbeque and make it something fun. [5:02] As a student who also has a running business, what is more important? David reckons it’s usually about a 70-30 ratio of business to school. His preparations in high school set him up to be in a good place with his college courses before he even got there. [6:19] David reflects on his experience in different business plan competitions. His biggest takeaway has been realizing that the importance of a business plan is being able to start something — once you get started, there is opportunity for ideas to develop and change as you go along. But you have to take that first step forward. He also speaks about how valuable the actual pitch is — designing and being able to articulate your story is important for doing well. [11:10] What was David’s entrepreneurial spark? Although David’s dad showed him what it was, he never really taught him about it. As a kid David really admired Steve Jobs, and he was inspired by the idea that he could change things and build his own things and have influence. His school environment also fostered growth and independence, which was really empowering for his entrepreneurial spirit. [15:04] Many people from the younger generation have a desire to make an impact on the world. David and Kevin talk about entrepreneurship as a vehicle to make this impact. David feels that with the way things are constantly changing, entrepreneurship allows you to do something for yourself, and if something happens, it’s on your own terms. From the financial side, many people are enticed by the monetary reward and feel it’s worth the risk. [17:40] David talks about his team for FlyBy BBQ. Using his resources, he found people who were knowledgeable in their fields, and their expertise would benefit the operations of his business. [18:41] How can Kevin and EO help FlyBy BBQ? David is always looking for feedback and people to share their story. They’re currently in their last phase, which is the food truck. It’ll be launching in Dayton in mid-April in the Fair Warren/Beaver Creek area, so come on down!

Today’s guest is Bill Troy, who will be the incoming EO Education Chair, and the President Elect for 2018-2019 year. In this episode, Kevin and Bill talk about Bill’s start in entrepreneurship, starting his own business and writing a book, and how EO has helped him navigate some of the twists and turns he has experienced in his career. Key Takeaways: [1:04] Bill shares his “lifeline” — after meeting his wife in college, he left college and went to broadcasting school, and after broadcasting school he got into the radio business for about ten years. When they switched gears to follow his wife’s career, they ended up in Columbus, and he started his own internet-based market research company, Troy Research. [5:15] What did Troy recognize in himself that he had the entrepreneur mentality? For him, the missing piece was sales. After he did that for his work with a market research company, he had the knowledge and the confidence to start his own business. [6:19] Getting integrated into the Columbus community: coming from the city, the adjusting was difficult, but once they settled in their home in Ohio they realized that it is a great place to be. [9:01] Bill’s financial advisor encouraged him to join EO. Immediately, being a part of EO helped Bill realize that all the things that made him think he wasn’t an entrepreneur were actually the evidence that he was an entrepreneur. Bill talks about how he got involved in other aspects of EO, particularly becoming a member of the board. [11:24] Bill talks about the impact of forum as a process, and how the principles apply to other areas of his life. [14:20] This involvement, and the experiences he gained through the work he had to do, actually ended up having an effect on the growth of his personal business. Bill’s story is a great example of the kinds of things people are experiencing by being involved in EO. [16:08] Being able to see and recognize that there is a bottom and top five percent is really important because it leads to the ability to turn one into the other (preferably your bottom five into your top five). [19:00] Bill and Kevin talk about Bill’s book, and how the idea for that came around. As Bill is changing directions in his business to focus more on using online marketing tools for relationship-based marketing rather than impersonal transactions, he is hoping this book will help bring in some others who believe in the same things. [22:57] Where does Bill see things going in the future? For Civilis Marketing, they are working toward building a business that is not “Bill-related.” Ideally as they move forward his wife will take over more over the actual running of the business. Bill also talks about the services they are hoping to provide through Civilis Marketing. [27:11] Kevin asks the age old question: how can he, or anyone in the audience, help Bill out? Bill really wants members to be more proactive about getting involved. When members take ownership of growing their interests through the program, it helps everyone. [31:51] Both Kevin and Bill are writing books — they talk about the different routes of publishing and what the process has been like for Bill so far.
