• 3:04
  Speaker 1: is probably one of the biggest movies that I've done
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: thus far. I am super excited about this opportunity. Greg Harter,
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: which is yes, director director um from Houston, Texas. So
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: it's you know, it's a great thing to be working
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: with people where I started. I started my comedy um
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: career in Houston. So for then to reach back and
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: get your girl, it says a lot. Well, I reached
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: back because you got talent popularity, so that's the key.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: But you didn't even audition for it. Wait a minute,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: the people knew I was already qualified, but I did
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: you know? He had apart from me in mine? So
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: you know, yes, he had already seen my work. Okay, Okay,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: so so ward as an actress. Okay, So you have
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: so many people listening to the show who don't get
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: apart already written for them. Yes, audition. Have you been
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: through the audition process? How has that been for you?
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: And what makes you keep forward when you receive rejection.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Funny that you even ask me that, because I did
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: audition for the Netflix movie that I have coming out
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: in two nineteen with Marlon Wayne, I'm so pretty with Patty. Listen.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: Here's the thing, Uh, it was a great it's it's
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: an overwhelming experience because you're not really sure what the
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: director or the casting agent is looking for. So what
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: happens is you're just literally shooting in the dark. But
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: the only thing you can do is be your best
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: for you. If you're your best to you, you try
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: to embody all of the characters when they're not gonna
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: give you a whole lot. So they give you the
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: breakdown of the character, they give you the breakdown of
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: the scene, and and may not even give you that much.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: And but you go in and you try to make
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: it as um you as well, not as you, but
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: as much as the character as possible. So the idea is,
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: if you if they're looking for a thirty year old
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: ghetto mama of seven or whatever, you have to figure
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: out what that looks like and then you have to
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: sell that presence take you out of it as much
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: as possible. Cool. So the movie that you did give
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: us a we're lying on that movie and my character
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: is named Tiffany. Tiffany is a loud, educated um, slightly
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: inappropriate most of the time. Character she's also an attorney.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: So but she she dressed very, very, very polished, but
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: she is hood m. So we're that's the comedy part.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: And I am the friend to the main character who
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: had a one night stand with her daughter's fiance when
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: she later finds out is her daughter's fiance. No one
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: knew this until the daughter. Okay, I'm gonna repeat it.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: So my friend in the movie had a one night
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: stand with her daughter's fiance, but we never we didn't
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: know who the fiance was because we never met the
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: fiance until thanks again, and so I'm sorry Christmas. So
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: when the daughter brings the fiance home, we're like, that's
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: the boy, and he's young and attractive, and we're all
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: eye and him and core is honey, it was one
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: night stand. In my main try to ruin that she
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: don't want that boy. She just wanted that one night right.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: So that's so that the controversy is that she had
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: a one night stay words her daughter's fiance cheated on
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: that no no one knew because they met afterwards. Yes,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: they met afterwards. The uncle. Don't make this look complicated.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: He made you. You get it right. Here's what happened
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: the daughter met a man that was now she's engaged
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: to she's been dating. But the mother met a man
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: prior to the getting in gage. They met at the airport,

• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Um one year. Literally, I cannot get screening for three days.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: I could not speak to my mother for two days.
• 9:46

• 9:49
  Speaker 1: My you can hear me. I can hear you fine,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: and tell the people when you broke my phone how
• 9:54

  Speaker 1: of my hands and I don't know swear that phone

• 10:07
  Speaker 1: don't touch my phone. Don't don't touch my phone because
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: I don't have a case. And it shattered my screen.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: And it was one thing that it shattered my screen,
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: and it's the other thing, is it shattered. And sometimes
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: you can still use your phone when it's broken. But
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: do you guys know my phone would not work. My
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: calls were coming in and I was getting all these
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: important calls because not answer. I couldn't touch my screen.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: So we have been going through programs trying to figure
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: out how we what we wanted to do. We knew
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: that we wanted to get into a business. We knew
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: that we wanted to invest our we're in really stay also,
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: so we were going through different classes, different entrepreneur programs
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: and everything, and then we had a lot of different
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: programs and different business ideas that came to us until
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: we met the CPR people and we and I'm telling you,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: the CPR program was amazing. Um. It gave us an
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: opportunity to because we all have technical, technical backgrounds, so
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: it wasn't something that was so far fetched. My mother
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: is a programmer by trade, and I worked for Samsung
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: telcom um in the past, so it was it was
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: easy fit. And so how did you find out about
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: this franchise? CPR? Mom? You want to answer that question,
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: how did you find out about CPR franchise? We I
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: was working with the coach her name is Susan, her
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: last Susan Scott, with the entrepreneurs Source Sources. And it
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: was right after I had back surgery and I was
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: trying to figure out what I could do with my
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: life for me and my children. So we would talk
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: every day, me and my kids, Jana and my son Eric.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: They're grown, but I'm still calling my kids. And we
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: just was trying to figure out what we can do
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: for us, How to you know, take money that we
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: had and grow it and invested in something. You know,
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: a lot of people, especially black people, you know, when
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: they open it up a business they might, you know,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: especially now that the people were getting into hair or
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: clothing lines or something of that. We were looking for
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: something that everybody needed. And we don't only repair cell phones.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: We repair most all electronics, stroid, We replace anything, computers,
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: game systems, anything that has been screen. Okay, so okay,
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: that means that you guys are the front. Yes, how
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: many tech people do you have? We have to tech
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: people in the back right now. I'm the marketing person.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: My mother is the i will say, the numbers person.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: My brother he serves as our kind of regional manager.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: This is our first store. Our second store be open
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: in spring twenty nineteen, and theloof that would be our
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: flagship store. It's pretty aggressive, it is, really so. So
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: what makes you feel comfortable about opening one store and
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: then opening another store? So I'll tell you the answer
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: to that. First of all, Um, I broke my screen
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: three times this year and it was two hundred and
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: fifty dollars a pop. My co host when I was
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: on Sister Circle, she broke her phone four times this
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: year and we both have Sam some joys. That was
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: two hundred fifty dollars a pop. That was two hundred
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: and fifty times four. So I'm thinking to myself, if
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: within my little small social circle, I've known someone who's
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: had to spend two hundred and fifty dollars five, you know,
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: seven times. So if I broughten that, how many other
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: people are replacing their phones? And then when you're out
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: of your warranty, where can you go to replace your screen?
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: Sometimes there's no place to go but to a store
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: like mine. So we looked at it. We saw that
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: it was it was this actually was an opportunity that
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: was given to us. The Marryatta store, our original store
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: was going to be our flagship store and Dulouf this
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: was a blessing by the headquarters. The was like, hey,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: we have the store taken so we had we took
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: this store over and our second store will be originally
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: our first store, but it will be our great store.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: You've you've taken over a previous business. Yes, how do
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: you make that decision to take over a previion business?
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: You look at the books or lead you in the
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: director that Okay, this is a business. I can take
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: it to the next the next level. How do you
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: make that decision? Mommy want to address that, Well, it
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: wasn't an easy decision because, um, the guy that we lost,
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: the guy that previously owned it, What did you say, mom?
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: He was an absentee owner, so he lived in Louisiana,
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: so it was really hard for him, so he wanted
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: to get rid of it. Um, the store already had
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: a tech that knew what he was doing, so he
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: came along with the business. The key thing to this
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: store here in Marietta is our marketing team. We don't
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: only work with consumers. We have small business accounts. We
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: go after Kate do twelve because you know, the school systems,
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: everybody have laptop, so he's a tablets now. So that's
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: Kiana's role. She's our our marketer and she focuses on
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: you know, the schools, the small businesses. We have a
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: um A partnership with all the Marlett carriers, T Mobile, Verizon, A,
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: T n T. Those are our partners. We also partner
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: with other carriers UM such as ZAG which is the
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: invisible screen that you put on your shield, that you
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: put on your phone. So there when when we start
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: talking about why she should we should do this, we
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: already had partners that they UM they gave us. These
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: are your partners that will work with you. So that
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: made the situation just easy. So that means that you
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: carry that same brand to your next story. Yes, yes,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: now this is very smart. This is very smart because
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: you're not coming in like virgin owners breaking into a
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: new territory. In fact, you you gotta leg up. Yeah,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: and the training is phenomenal. They give you training. Um,
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: they actually the support system is fantastic. We have a
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: lot of stories around us, but it's we Like we
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: bought Marryattas so there won't be another CPR in that market.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: Now there's mom and pop you know stories in the
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: market of course. But the difference between CPR and some
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: of the mom and pop stores is we have relationships
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: with like we have a contract and exclusive contract with Apple.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: We get Apple products we had, so when you come
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: to us, you will have an original iPhone product and
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: sang for Sam song. Right, That's that's really important. So
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: I'm really happy to hear this because of the fact that, again,
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: like your mom said earlier, a lot of African Americans
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: going to the food industry, the hair industry, the automotive
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: industry from the standpoint, and you guys are going into
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: the tech industry, which we as African Americans are always
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: perceived as being late or known. People are just consumers,
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: but not on the end of the production. And it's
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: also very scary. And one of the conversations my mom
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: and I, my my my mom, brother and I had
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: was we wanted to have a be in a situation
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: where we can leave money to our future. We want
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: to leave legacy money. Absolutely, So this is a situation.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: When we started researching how much money that can actually
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: be made, it's a really it's tangible and it's actually,
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: um it's impressive. Oh, I can make that kind of money.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: You know, you're excited about it. So it's and it's
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: not I don't want I like. I love that she
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: brought it up that as African Americans we tend to
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: think a little small based on the fact that it's scary.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: You know. Uh, we don't have a real financial conversations
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: around the dinner table as African Americans. My mom did,
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: but a lot of families don't. How do you invest
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: your money, how do you grow your money? What should
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: you be doing? What kind of um stocks and bonds
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: and things should you be invested in to have to
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: live off that interest right now where a lot of
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: us us me included right where the first and the
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: fifteen live and check the check. But I don't want
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: that lifestyle anymore. You know, I'm in the industry as
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: the entertainment industry, where I might get a big old
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: fat check. Who went there tomorrow? Guy? Nothing? You know
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: what I mean? So I wanted something that I can
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: absolutely I wanted a way that I can eat when
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: I'm sleeping right, that's right, check in the mail. Come
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: on now, I love that. Now the approaches, So how
• 17:49
