Sharing successful entrepreneurial stories

Business, Coaching & Consulting, Communications, Events & Entertainment 00:21:31

Faisal Karmali is an author, business expert and media personality, business and market expert for 770CHQR and CTV Morning Live in Calgary, and an entrepreneur. He brings his passion for helping people succeed in their businesses to his interviews and advice straight to you.

The Karmali Exchange with Faisal Karmali is a monthly web show and podcast, featuring successful entrepreneurs sharing their stories about how they achieved their goals, some of the challenges they have had along the way, and their advice that can help other business owners learn and grow their own companies.

He describes his mission this way:

“No entrepreneur does it by themselves. Every day, I speak to entrepreneurs about their businesses, and analyze and report on dozens of companies for thousands of people. I’ve noticed a pattern: what makes the basic building blocks of a successful business.

“I also know that entrepreneurship is a difficult, and often lonely endeavour. The best way to find solutions for your business is to talk to other entrepreneurs for insight and unique perspectives. But it’s hard to find those people to talk to when you are working so hard.

“That’s why I’ve decided to create a community to share advice, ideas and insights from experts, as well as the things I’ve learned from decades of studying successful businesses. Join us today to get the help you need to take your business to the next level.”

Supporting Staff for Success

Business, Communications, Fashion & Garments, Retail 00:21:07

Tammie Hunter was raised on Vancouver Island and as an adult lived in several communities around BC before settling in Nanaimo near her family. After exploring a few careers, she discovered later in life that being an entrepreneur is the most rewarding and engaging. She often says she wishes she had known what being a business owner was like earlier on in life.

As an artist she has had a very successful career selling her art in several galleries and art shows over the past 20 years. Since she started LegArt Apparel her art has taken a backseat. But she’s itching to get back into her studio to continue her lifelong dream of being a serious artist.

Tammie started LegArt Apparel in 2014. Since then, it has grown to be one of the top apparel companies in Canada in its particular style of clothing, mainly leggings. The company has grown from the original box of 100 pairs of leggings in the basement to over 4,000 pieces of inventory in a large warehouse and storefront in Nanaimo.

After almost 10 years in the industry, Tammie has gained much experience, having learned mostly through trial and error what it takes to be successful in the apparel industry. Through many ups and downs, hard work both mentally and physically, and learning with a team of dedicated employees and mentors she feels it’s time to implement an exit plan that will set her successor up for further success. The next three years will bring new challenges but she is up for it!

Électron libre attiré par les communications et philanthrope

Communications, Human Resources 00:24:24

Éric Simoneau (ericsimoneau.ca) est un professionnel comptant plus de 20 ans d’expérience en ressources humaines et rémunération qui a récemment lancé l’initiative « Une job pour un don à l’organisme de votre choix » afin de donner une nouvelle direction à sa carrière et, surtout, s’amuser !

Par l’entremise de cette initiative, il sollicite des emplois ou des projets enthousiasmants (ex. en communication), sans trop considérer le revenu qu’il pourrait en tirer sachant qu’il a décidé d’en verser la grande majorité à un organisme de bienfaisance. Eh oui, un ancien professionnel en rémunération qui décide de ne pas se préoccuper de sa propre rémunération afin de se consacrer à des projets qui l’intéressent vraiment et, par ricochet, aider la communauté !
