What are some of the barriers that you think still exist for POC entrepreneurs?

Again capital is always a barrier. I mean, our gaining access to it is a never-ending battle. The good news is there are more vehicles out there (i.e. crowd funding etc..) today.  Thankfully, we’re in a really strong fiscal position. But I remember talking to several banks, telling them what I was going to do and having a track record of being a successful entrepreneur. And some banks passed on it. Wintrust, thankfully, they followed up, and we kept the dialogue going. We needed to see it through, but it took almost a year from end to end to get a live credit facility. But they stepped up. And they’ve been my bank ever since. 

Outside of capital is having organizational depth– having a team to constantly execute. We can win business, but can we keep it? Can we retain it? Can we work through the ebbs and flows? Do we have the infrastructure to run an account, whatever that respective account is?
