Mario Benedetti proved his acumen with decades of success in the automotive industry in his native Venezuela, then proved his resilience with his move to the US. Mario's family has been in the car business for nearly a whole century, with three generations managing Venezuela's Prosperi Cumana dealership since its founding in 1924. Mario worked as a mechanic and in accounting at the family business before taking the reins, but in 2009, feeling bad prospects for business under Venezuela's government, he moved to the United States intending to start a new dealership from scratch. Thirteen years later, Mario owns dealerships across Dade County - and Prosperi Cumana is still up and running.On this episode, Mario talks with our host Derek D about the differences between the Japanese (and Venezuelan) car sales business model and the American one, what a stint selling vehicles door-to-door taught him, and the challenges that came with starting a new business with a recession in full swing. Plus, he discusses navigating a major Toyota recall, what happened when he asked to buy a dealership on a whim, why one of the models sold at South Dade Kia dealerships is one of his favorite-ever cars to drive, and more.South Dade Toyota | South Dade KiaEpisode Highlights:Why Mario compares his work to being an orchestral conductorThe philosophy of kaizen - continuous improvement - and how to make it work at a car dealershipThe shortsighted tactic Mario calls a “bread for today, hunger for tomorrow” moveWhy the current situation of low vehicle supply is a good opportunity to change customer perception about the dealership“Even though it's the same brand and the same business model that we had in Venezuela with Toyota, it's two different markets.” — Mario Benedetti|| Dealer News Today is a DCG Media production

“Creativity is thinking new things. Innovation is doing new things. If your actions create a legacy that inspires others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, then, you are an excellent leader.” Tune in to hear Miami-born attorney, small business owner, mother, and District 8 Miami-Dade County Commissioner Danielle Cohen Higgins discuss the future of digital currency, plans for transportation advancements in Miami-Dade, sustainable economic development, the challenges of balancing beauty and brains, and more! How Will Cryptocurrency Transform The Future of Business Forever? If you haven't quite yet warmed up to the idea of cryptocurrency, you are certainly not alone. Only about 15% of Americans currently own some form of digital currency like Bitcoin or Ethereum. And a large portion of these investors bought in the past two years. Regardless of your investment stance, however, there is a strong possibility that cryptocurrency will be impacting you and the future of business transactions. The daughter of Jamaican immigrants who came to the United States in search of better opportunities, she was born at Jackson Memorial Hospital and spent part of her early years living in what is now a Section 8 housing complex called Milton Manors. Commissioner Cohen Higgins knows the importance of a quality education and is a proud product of our Miami-Dade County Public Schools, where she graduated at the top of her class and earned a scholarship to the University of Florida. She became the first in her family to graduate from college and went on to attend law school at Florida State University. After completing her education, she joined prestigious national law firm, before branching off on her own to start her own firm, dedicated to serving small businesses and individuals in our community. She is proud to call South Dade home with her husband, two young children, and their two dogs. #BrittHappens #MiamiDadeCounty #BrittanySharpton #DanielleCohenHiggins Host: Brittany Sharpton

I’m baaack. This is your high school wrestling update from the Orlando Sentinel for Monday, January 29, 2018 – My name is Brant Parsons – and my podcast did not win a Grammy last night. We’ve hit the stretch run of the season and this past weekend gave us a showcase of big I-B-Ts. Take a big inhale – and let’s go. Let’s start with the Tri-County Invitational at Olympic Heights that saw Fleming Island come in and show the “tri-counties” how it’s done. The Golden Eagles outscored runner-up Miami Columbus by 100 points. Louis Gagliardo, Briar Jackson, Paul Detwiler and Ryan Smenda all won titles for the second-ranked team in Class 3A. The top five was filled with top-10 3A teams with Southwest Miami, Hagerty and Wellington going 3-through-5. South Dade, the top-ranked team in 3A, took its dual show on the road and dominated the North Bay Haven Bash, giving up just 27 points in 8 duals. Palm Harbor University – No. 3 in 3A – took home the title at the Live Greco Invitational ahead of Riverview and Kissimmee Osceola. Lake Gibson, the top-ranked 2A team was off, while No. 2 Riverdale made more history in Southwest Florida. The Raiders won their 14th consecutive Lee County title, nearly doubling the point total of runner-up Ft. Myers. Are you keeping up with all of this? There will be a quiz at the end. The top team in 1A was off too with second-ranked Clay winning the crown at the Flagler Rotary tournament. Springstead, Winter Springs, Palm Coast and Wakulla rounded out the top five. Somerset was the top team at George Jenkins, turning a big semifinal round where the Panthers went 6-0 into the first IBT title of the season. Cardinal Gibbons won another B-C-A-A title, outdistancing Cypress Bay and St. Thomas for the crown. And now the home stretch… Other winners this weekend were Brandon at Diamondback Duals, Mulberry at the Charlie Dart Invitational, Venice at the Venice Duals, American Heritage Delray Beach at Eaglemania Duals and Atlantic Coast at Terry Parker Duals. Locally, Apopka rode five individual champions to the title at the Wolfpack Invitational and Oviedo won the school’s first tournament in over 7 years with a win at Ships and Duels at Palm Bay. And I lied, I’m too tired for a quiz but you can check out the results from all of these tournaments and more at OrlandoSentinel.com/wrestling.
