AmiSights: Financing the Future For Small Business Owners and Entrepreneurs
In this week's edition of the AmiSights Podcast, we talk to Cesar Quintero, certified Entrepreneurial Operating System® (EOS) Implementer and Founder of The Profit Recipe, where he helps entrepreneurs and their leadership teams build a business by design with EOS based on the book “Traction.” He explains how he was drawn to entrepreneurship at a young age. "I launched something a little more dear to my heart and purpose is I launched an online entrepreneurial platform in Spanish for Latin America. So helping, Latin's because I think it's underserved and most, most of Latin America, they would do so well, so better off as an entrepreneur than as a professional." The main topics of today's episode will be how opening up his company's books to all of the employees changed Cesar's mindset on running his business. Cesar will share how his former company survived the COVID-19 pandemic after diversifying its options. We will also discuss why a company needs to have foundational basics in place before implementing an Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS).

Born and raised in Nicaragua, our latest podcast guest came to the United States at just 15 years old with dreams of independence. Decades later, she's built a business that provides freedom for both her and her family. Maria Marin is the CEO, President, and Founder of Unlimited Recycling, Inc., a one-stop-shop company specializing in waste disposal, recycling, and transportation for commercial, industrial, and institutional facilities. Established in 1999, the company has served high-profile customers like Selfridge Air National Guard, US Army TACOM, and more. Maria is an alumni member of the Stanford Graduate School of Business and a mentor for the Stanford University Hispanic Entrepreneurship Program. She graduated from the Stanford Latino Entrepreneurs Leader Program in 2016. She is an EY Entrepreneur of the Year 2023 Michigan and Northwest Ohio Finalist, and also sits on the Board of Directors for the Michigan Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. Breaking into a male-dominated industry Maria started her career at the Department of Natural Resources in the State of Michigan, where she learned about illegal dumping and mercury pollution in the Great Lakes. The same day Maria found out she was pregnant with her second son, she decided to start her own business: one dedicated to raising awareness about recycling and proper waste disposal. In the beginning, Maria focused on customer education, selling containers, and subcontracting other companies to do the hauling. But all that changed when the US Army contracted her for both recycling and trash removal. At the time, Maria didn't know anything about trash hauling and she didn't yet have her own trucks, but she took the contract and vowed to figure it out. She received excellent ratings from the United States Army for the completion of a successful 5-year waste and recycling contract–and the business has only grown from there. Managing financial risk Maria didn't jump right into trash hauling. She waited seven years to buy her own trucks, until she was certain the company could support the investment. Maria has never taken on investors–she's bootstrapped the company, getting loans when necessary but always careful not to get in over her head financially. She's extremely conscious that her employees are relying on her and never makes large investment in personnel or equipment until she knows the work will be there. Taking care of yourself as a CEO After 24 years in business, Maria knows that in order to be at her best for her customers and employees, she needs to take care of herself first. She makes an effort to stay in good shape mentally, physically, and emotionally. Maintaining a positive attitude is key. No matter what happened in the office that day, Maria switches off at night by reminding herself she did the best she could–and that she needs to rest so that she can do it all again tomorrow. Enjoy this episode with CEO and Founder, Maria Marin… Quotes “I always wanted to have my own business. I always wanted to be independent because I felt like I wanted to fly, I had wings, and I was restricted. I wanted to be unlimited.” “I love to learn and I think we're never done learning. Every day is an opportunity to grow.” “I don't have to prove myself to anyone except my customers, my employees, myself, and my family.” “Have I faced adversity? Absolutely, but I think we all do at some point. It is a male-dominated industry, but when I walk into a room, I feel like I'm bringing so much value. My head is high. I have many, many years that I have dedicated, I have sacrificed to give to this community, and to give to the company.” “I try to take care of myself first–mentally, emotionally, and physically. Because if I'm not those things, then what do I have to offer to my team, my family, and my customers? So it's very important to me to stay in good shape in every way that I can and to stay in that positive attitude.” Links mentioned in this episode: Unlimited Recycling Website: http://www.unlimitedrecycling.com Unlimited Recycling Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DumpsterPlus/ Connect with Maria Marin on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/unlimitedrecycling/
In this episode of Work in Progress, I discuss increasing access to capital for Latino entrepreneurs with Isabella Casillas Guzman, administrator of the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), and Nina Vaca, the founder and CEO of Pinnacle Group, a global IT staffing agency. I sat down with Guzman and Vaca at the Aspen Latino Business Summit in Washington, D.C. in early September. Small businesses are driving economic growth across the nation, according to the SBA's Guzman, noting more that 13.1 million applications from entrepreneurs wanting to start a new company. It might surprise you who is starting those companies. “What we're seeing is that women and people of color are propelling that growth, starting businesses at really high rates," says Guzman. “There are over 5 million Latino businesses here in this country creating jobs, creating products that are boosting our economic output. They have a 2.8 nearly trillion dollar impact in our economy, overall.” Despite being at the lead of the small business boom, Guzman says investment in this community's entrepreneurs has, typically, lagged. And, she says, that is hurting those business creators and the economy. “We're really tracking the changing face of entrepreneurship…to make sure that they have the tools to succeed because they have historic underinvestment that has limited their growth. And we need to change that if we want to see our economy grow into the future.” Guzman tells me that many of the entrepreneurs are credit-worthy but are being shut out when it comes to getting the financial capital they need to start up and to grow. "If they don't get those loans then that means they're not creating jobs, they're not creating the output. Maybe they're not going to trade abroad in a new country. All that limits economic activity and limits opportunity for all." She points out that the SBA was created 70 years ago to fill capital gaps through lending programs, investment programs, and to propel and direct the federal spending around R&D to innovation grants to small businesses. "We need to do that with equity in mind to ensure that we're reaching and serving and creating access to everyone," Guzman concludes. WorkingNation's Ramona Schindelheim interviews Isabella Casillas Guzman and Nina Vaca at the Aspen Latino Business Summit 2023 in September. Pinnacle Group's Vaca echoes Guzman, “It is clear that the Latino community is impacting America in a variety of ways, but in entrepreneurship in a very meaningful way. Thirty-four percent (34%) of the new businesses are started by Latinas and women of color. The contributions that we're making to the American economy are clear.” Despite those contributions, Vaca says growth is a challenge. “While there are many Latina-owned businesses in this country, less than 10% of them are actually scaling in a very meaningful way. And capital isn't just one challenge. It's access to capital, but also access to contracts.” She continues, “Government is an opportunity for contracts, so is corporate America. I think corporate America can play a very important role getting their supply chains acquainted with these HBEs, these Hispanic business enterprises that are out there. Because while many of them are small, there's also scaled global mature Hispanic businesses as well.” For Vaca, supporting her community is a passion. “I am spending a lot of my time advocating to the Latina, Latino community that business is an incredible place to be – not just STEM and technology – but business.” “Business is for everyone, and it's absolutely for Latinas. When I look at the level of Latinas that are in the C-suite, or in executive roles, or on boards, I don't get mad. I get motivated because we need to give awareness to our young next generation how powerful business can be.” You can hear much more from Guzman of the SBA and Vaca of Pinnacle Group on how to increase access to capital for Latino entrepreneur...

Raul Anaya first witnessed the drive and resilience of the Latino business owner when his father opened Anaya's Body and Paint Shop in Brownsville, Texas. As President of Business Banking at Bank of America—and now as a member of the board of trustees for the Smithsonian's Museum of the American Latino—Anaya continues to witness the power of Latinos when they want to build something. And exactly how hope and optimism guides us as a community of entrepreneurs. Anaya has seen it over the course of three decades. Bank of America has not only provided him with the opportunity to appreciate the kind of courage his father showed when he walked into a bank to ask for a loan—it's allowed him the opportunity to personally support diverse business owners and properly reflect the community. Because for Anaya, we're in this together.

When Nicolina Delgadillo started her company BeeSmart in 2018, she knew that being an entrepreneur would be difficult. “Being a female and a Latina is hard work multiplied 10 times over,” she tells OZY, “Even though it is an exciting time to be a Latina boss.” Today, Delgadillo is in good company: Latino business owners are the fastest-growing group of entrepreneurs in the country.
