Last year we did many interviews live at Coffee Fest. I got to chat with Ian WIlliams of the famed sneaker/coffee concept Deadstock Coffee in Portland Oregon while on the show floor.  In this brief conversation Ian shared some very helpful insights around marketing, entrepreneurship, and staying true to values and culture while growing a business.  Deadstock began as a cart and has operated a sneaker-themed coffee shop in the Old Town Chinatown neighborhood since August 2015. Since then the company has won numerous accolades. Ian and his team have steadily grown the business through genuine hospitality, unique partnerships, and establishing themselves as a leading voice for black owned coffee shops.  Ian has been speaking on coffee, marketing, diversity, and business around the country for a while now and you can find him on the Coffee Fest circuit this year again doing just that.  I hope this interview helps you greatly and stay tuned for more interviews like this soon as we get ready to go to the first Coffee Fest show of 2024 in NYC!

 “People need people.” - Ian Williams, founder and owner of Deadstock Coffee. In this episode, Marc and Cathey talk with Ian about defining and building community. They explore how to angle an idea, saying it in a way that people understand while also challenging their thinking. During their play a game of semantics, they end with the notion that one of the keys to finding your unique perspective is asking yourself questions that are not easy for you to answer. By the end of this conversation, like Ian, you'll be able to figure out why you need community and how to express your complex ideas in a simpler way.

Ian Williams shares story about fostering community through dope coffeeIan Williams, owner of Deadstock Coffee, has such an inspiring story. Born in Newport News, VA. The child of a drug and alcohol counselor, Ian had a childhood just like any other kid, despite  growing  up in a rough area, but fell in love with sneakers from watching the local corner boys flaunting what they had, but always stayed on the straight and narrow. At the age of 9, his father had passed and Ian moved to Portland to live with his brother.The culture shock was very real, it was first time living in a house, first time seeing tree lined streets and it was his first time seeing people that didn't look like him. Ian found solace in basketball, despite being a very, very, very undersized center. But basketball would be his true entry point into having a love of sneakers; his first pair of course was VA legend Allen Iverson's Questions. Which then would evolve into a love of And-1 the shows and the basketball mixtapes. As his interest in sneakers and basketball was strong, Ian's interest in school wasn't, later finding out as an adult he had undiagnosed ADD. Ian used clowning in school as a defense mechanism. Right before his senior year, Ian learned that he needed to retake 8 classes. Despite trying to make up these classes, Ian couldn't make them all up and didn't graduate high school. After school, Ian started selling cars and although he wasn't very knowledgeable in cars or finance, he knew exactly how to assess and connect with people.  After quitting his job in 2005, he went back to community college.  Ian never had aspirations to work at Nike, but the little bit of money he did have, he was buying sneakers. So many sneakers that he had to move back home. Ian got plenty of odd jobs with the company from working retail at the Nike Employee Store to literally making the airbags that go into the shoes to even being a janitor on campus. With a lot of hustle, knowledge and gumption, Ian would get a job at the campus as a Footwear developer where he'd work on a dunk that was released in 2010.About Claima Stories with Bimma:Former Nike Marketer, Bimma Williams interviews leading and emerging BIPOC creatives about how they were able to break into the notoriously guarded creative and sneaker industries.

Emery Barnes is a brand marketer and photographer. This conversation is extremely unique because this was actually the first time we've met in person. Like many episodes prior, our friendship began on IG. We met up on this morning at Deadstock Coffee and then walked around downtown Portland taking photos. Emery told me he was moving to New York City in a couple of weeks so it was only right to record this episode upon introduction & lay down the foundation for our new friendship. www.emerybarnes.com IG: @emebarnes --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/openingpresence/support

If there’s ever been a wild wild west of podcast interviews on this show, this might be the one. I’m recording with my friend, Ian Williams. He’s the owner of Deadstock Coffee in Portland, Oregon, which is a coffee and sneaker-theme shop. There’s no other feeling like walking into Deadstock—you’re always greeted by the baristas, customers and staff clearly know each other well, and the space invites a lot of discussions, a lot of back and forth. “Yes, this is a sneaker-themed coffee shop, no the shoes are not for sale, yes we will put a stencil of a sneaker in your hot chocolate.” The conversation I have with Ian is a singularity, kind of like Deadstock itself. No one else could have opened Deadstock. No one else could have created the environment that Deadstock has, and we talk a lot about this—about the source of originality, especially in coffee, where it feels like every new shop opening has the same aesthetic. Ian has been roasting coffee for Deadstock for a few years and recently kicked off a campaign called “Coffee Should Do Better,” which we get into, but for the most part, this interview is two friends shooting the shit. Ian’s computer keeps beeping, I’m eating stale bread for some reason, we make fun of each other a few times, there’s a rotating cast of characters. It’s fun, but it’s also illuminating, and grounded in the current moment. We recorded this episode about five months after COVID-19 forced many coffee shops to close, but Ian’s business is different. It’s thriving. And people are asking him why. There’s no one answer, but it starts with breaking away from the cookie-cutter model of what a coffee shop needs to be. Here’s Ian.

Hear shoe dog and Portland legend Ian Williams talk about the culture shock he experienced at a young age moving from a diverse neighborhood on the East Coast to the--especially-then--non-diverse Portland area (Beaverton/Hillsborough), why he was obsessed with Allen Iverson and inspired by his playing style and the influence it had on his life, how a short stint of bad behavior in middle school led to him being put in private school and the subsequent dress code that influenced his love of shoes, how a calculated move taking a job as a janitor at Nike opened the door to making his shoe dreams a reality years later, what became more important to him than shoes (and even coffee), and much more!

Today, we're very happy to present the third and final episode of “The State and Future of the Business of Coffee,” a session recorded at Re:co Symposium this past April. This session gathered business leaders in Specialty Coffee to discuss the ways that the specialty coffee trade has changed in the past decade, the challenges businesses face today, and how we might prepare for the future. If you haven't listened to episodes #36 and #37, we strongly recommend going back to listen to it before you continue with this episode. In this final panel of the 2018 Re:co Symposium in April, Nick Cho asks the question: how do we respond to the challenges that were identified during Re:co this year? To find some possible answers, he leads a discussion between three founders of solutions-oriented businesses (Isabella Raposeiras, Roaster, Founder, and Owner of Coffee Lab; Ian Williams, Owner of Deadstock Coffee; Pamela Chng, Founder of Bettr Barista) as they explore the approaches they're using to push specialty coffee forward.   This talk from Re:co Seattle is supported by Toddy.
