Daymond John
Lessons
Class Description
How can small businesses adapt when it feels like the world is crumbling down around them? The lockdown exposed cracks in the way many small businesses market and sell, but instead of focusing on failure, Daymond dares you to reset. Join Founder, President and CEO of FUBU, and The People’s Shark of Shark Tank Daymond John as he covers the fundamentals of entrepreneurship. Success starts by first reflecting on the WHY and identifying the needs of your customers. Education is power and Daymond shares advice on how to truly understand what your business is selling and the power of rethinking your position in the market.
Daymond reflects on the impact major events (9/11 and The Great Recession of 2008) had on Fubu and the different pivots he took to maintain both a positive mindset and profitability.
