PERSEVERANCE & BUSINESS

2011-04-21T20:49:00.000-07:00

In business you have your ups and downs, one day full of exciting new people, accounts and forecast. The next day ehh not so glorious.

Welcome to business my friend, don't get me wrong being in the drivers seat of a well oiled machine is fantabulous, but there are certain dimensions to business that calls for the expertise of an actor performing a one man show on Broadway.

First of all you have to believe in the business and have a unrelenting will to sow prosperity in the face of adversity.

As human beings we tend to get depressed when will fail to meet the goals we have set for ourselves be them large or small. The anxiety that builds within us when we think we have finally hammered the deal, that would lead to the zenith of our success.

This could easily and more than likely be one of those deals that doesn't pan out and triggers a spiraling feeling of failure. You are not alone, everyone that has ever started a business has had this feeling at some point in their development.

Going through this chaos is healthy and allows one to become more strategic and elegant in their approach of negotiations and closing.

People are people and don't ever forget that, we have good days and bad days and all of the characteristics that leads one to have a good or bad day are factors in business.

The art of perseverance in business is to continue to move forward NO MATTER WHAT.

This sets the pattern of strengthening how you do business on a solid foundation and allows you to find the opportunity in the chaos, once you have acquired the ability to make and execute important decisions in the eye of the storm you've reached another plateau in business.

We all have ambitious goals that we sometime become overzealous in our actions and are forced to take a few steps back and breathe, this is perfectly normal and good education for sculpting our on style and finesse in dealings.

Patience is a virtue and as long as we believe in what we are doing and prepared to take advantage of opportunity then we will reach our paramount.

COOKIE CUTTER COMPANIES

2010-10-26T12:31:00.000-07:00

The fashion industry is saturated with low quality cookie cutter companies. It seems as if production is done to bleed the label of it's essence and discard it like some Chinese take out container. This has evolved through the years, take this scenario for example: New company emerges and the product is original and has a distinct look style that is fresh. This company does well for a couple of years and starts to attract investors offering what seems to be a great deal of loot to partner or take control of the label. Typical right, sure it is these guys surface like they were laying in wait for a good moment to strike and they make the move and it is accepted. The wrecking ball is in full swing now, first thing that happen is they take control of production cheaper materials, more accounts, more advertisements, and sales skyrocket (for a little while) now here comes the no hitter. Things seem to be great for this new company but wait now everybody is wearing the same thing the market is flooded with your brand and bootleg versions are outselling the original product and another one bites the dust. The end result is your product starts showing up at discount stores marked down 75% off and it's a wrap.

ENTREPRENEUR

2010-10-17T13:15:00.000-07:00

An entrepreneur is one who enters into risk as a business owner. This is a self motivated idea of achieving success with an idea of your own or someone else's. We are not all entrepreneurs, everyone does not possess the desire of working for themselves, most of us work with or for others and we are content with that. Their isn't anything wrong with working a job until you retire, I just have a different view due to the way I was raised. As a young child I was always venturing out to execute my own little enterprises, I can remember cutting grass, cutting hair, raking leaves, roofing, digging ditches, selling watermelons,and selling clothing & accessories that we would buy wholesale from various places across the country, to sell in the neighborhood. I really enjoyed the fact that I could purchase product and sell it for what I thought was a fair price. Yeah I caught the bug early in life and it followed me through my whole life, I would always analyze the situation as a capital leverage plan or assessment. Most people who are exposed to entrepreneurship early are more likely to take a risk and go into business for themselves. I encourage people to be ambitious and at least try to do your own thing at some point in your life. Hey if it doesn't work at least you can say you tried.

PAPER BROWN BAG & FABRICS

2010-10-16T07:35:00.000-07:00

In producing a garment it is essential to know the fabrics that you will be working with. Their are many types of fabrics to choose from, the idea is to use the fabric that best compliments the functionality of the garment you're producing. Knowing how to match up different fabrics that work well together is an art form . Their are so many variables in deciding on combinations of fabric, color, pattern, weight, flow, feel, functionality, cohesiveness, and quality that goes into producing a garment that will be incorporated into a line. PAPER BROWN BAG strives for perfection as we source our raw materials that are manipulated to fashion a garment, we take the greatest care in taking everything into consideration before we deem a product finished. We aspire to produce a timeless look that allows our patrons to benefit from the quality of the garment that serves them for a lifetime of pleasurable use. Our passion for quality is unsurpassed and our commitment to excellence is valiant it's approach.

THE SAME

2010-10-14T16:30:00.000-07:00

If everyone was the same we would all be walking around in Khaki Dockers and White Button Up shirts, we would have all gone to Harvard or MIT and writing programs for Apple or Microsoft. If we were all the same there would not be anything to measure what was different. Well pal that's boring and I can't imagine a world like that even insects and animals are different, take the ant for example you got your worker, drones, and queen. The worker ant is a busy chap all day he is working his little whatever it is he works to the bone repetitiously day in and day out, the drone has a bit more exciting job he scouts for food and encounters new situations and has to conform to new strategic maneuvering, the queen oh she has got it made, on a frequent occasions invites some poor sap to her bed and gets her jollies off then wacks the poor guy. Well that's the nature of that particular tribe of creation. Human being have a much more complicated approach to our uniqueness, I won't dare go into the nuances of what makes each person different but I will mention one, fingerprints yeah our prints makes us identifiable and unique. Just think about it since the dawn of Man's existence no one person has had the same fingerprints, just an interesting fact that I thought I would share.

ORIGIN OF "PAPER BROWN BAG"

2010-10-11T11:29:00.000-07:00

The origin of the name "Paper Brown Bag' is rooted in a term used in the late 50's early 60's. The Jim crow laws in the south did not permit people of color to be permitted in certain venues due to the color of their skin. The architechs of this litmus test were people who fought against integration and wanted to remain a secular society.Well the way the test worked was if a certain function at a venue did allow people of color then the individual or parties would have to go in through the back door and a door man would match their skin color with a paper brown bag, if their skin color was darker, the person would not be permitted, but if the persons skin color was lighter or the same color as the paper brown bag then they would gain access. The name "Paper Brown Bag" transcends colors and barriers allowing patrons of "Paper Brown Bag" to be welcomed and admitted amongst all groups. Paper Brown Bag is a universal company encompassing a wide variety of first class looks with a timeless style.

NICE DAY IN NEW YORK

2010-10-09T09:23:00.000-07:00

It's a nice day in New York, literally it's nice out. I woke up about 7ish and the temp was roughly 67 ...68 I played with my cat a little and prepared myself for the day, got dressed and out round 8:30 and headed to Starbucks on 118th and Freddrick Douglass (or 8 Th ave) with the morning air resonating in my lungs, I met up with Shaban (the Architect) to discuss the floor plans for the new store our investment group has started to work towards. We discussed placement of store fixtures, lights, POS system ,sink counter tops, and ambiance among a host of other things, later Jamal joined us and we discussed profit margin as it relates to products & inventory. Now I must go down Canal St and handle some business. Things are moving along quite progressively and I like it. Well that's what going down in my neck of the woods. Whats going on with you?

WORK

2010-10-08T09:46:00.000-07:00

In my opinion work is the force that motivates us to endure. Work starts when your a thought in your fathers loins and mother womb, we are working to be the one that enters the egg to have a chance at developing, yeah work started a long time ago for us. Upon being born we work to come out to the world, once where here we work to crawl, stand, and speak. Somewhere along the line we work to sound out words, then sentences, and work to convey a thought which ultimately works our parents nerves. We assert ourselves in school by working hard to do our assignments, we work hard to get good grades, so that we can go to a good school where we will work to learn the fundamentals of our profession. Upon graduating we work to find a good job or create our own business where we work to be succesfull, at the same time were working on ourselves and our shortcominings, we work with our neighbors to build a strong community bond, as a nation we work with other countries. Work is a challenge be it working for yourself, a company or with another individual. Work is good it keeps us thinking, innovating, and producing if it were not for work we would be a bunch of pretty dull blokes ( and no I'm not british).
My brain is working to convey this thought to you so ya see how it works.......yeah. Truth be told we really work , so we won't have to WORK. :)

NETWORKING

2010-10-06T07:27:00.000-07:00

Networking is a word we use far too loosely, think about it ,when browsing facebook, twitter and other social networking sites most people who acquire an account list networking as their reason for being on the site. Really? ...no no no I mean Really? well maybe the definition is loosely interpeted to some as meaning( Networking-talking to and contacting new people to engage in senseless rhetoric,ranting, and lets not forget GOSSIP. )Hey some say tomato some say tamato right, WRONG. Networking should be a meeting between people who share interest or business interest that connects the dots and results in a fullfilling action or lucretive developement set forth between the parties to move forward working their different ends to meet a goal together. The way I see it ,my perfect example of networking is this : I own a clothing manufacturing plant, My friend owns a frabic mill, His friend owns a clothing hardware company,Our mutual friend owns a PR/ Marketing firm, and his friends owns a show room, now we all work together to produce and offer the public a product.

A GAME CALLED HIT

2010-10-05T09:18:00.001-07:00

When I was a young boy of 9 or 10 growing up in the neighborhood of East Thomas, Birmingham their had to be atleast 25 kids my age who played together. We all used to go down to the park were there was a swimmimg pool, baseball diamond, football field, basketball court, picnic and grill area, swings, merry go round, slides, monkey bars, lots of big trees, lots of space and a creek. That was just one of our playgrounds, at some point when a group of us were bored we went up to one of the churches in the neighborhood to play in the back of it and created what we called "HIT" the articles of the game included a ten speed rim with the spokes gutted out and sticks, thats it, simple huh? Well this is how the game was played , one person would stand at one point a throw the rim spinning it backwards vertically several other people would stand to the side waiting to strike the rim and knock it down not as easy as it may seem it was challenging my technique was to throw my stick with a flip and sometime it would result in knocking the rim down sometimes it would just turn the rim in a different direction but most importantly we had fun. Thier was no real way to win the game except for knocking the rim down then we just started again. That was HIT, then we would all race home to see "The Cosby Show"

FASHION

Fashion is infinite just like music , math, and literature. To me the right garment is a timeless one, one that has'nt succumb to the whimsicle imagination of "whats in" whats in is always behind the ball, "in today, gone tomorrow" a fad, a trend, a band wagon. Once the bandwagon has left town then low and behold the next "rage" surfaces adding more fuel to the fire of your wardrobe of disposible relics. We often ponder "what the hell was I thinking to purchasing that". Well at some point in our lives we have all been victim to this type of hype, These fashion faux pas (false step) are all to common amoung our society but we embrace them as if they were our new born sibling. When we make a decision to purchase a garment we all want it to be a comfortable, versitile, long lasting piece, what we usaully end up with is something we want to return or give away after the first few wears. In combating this area of misfortune we should carefully select our garments according to what our lifestyle are and formulate a method to our madness in hope of creating a pivet point to which we may form a timeless look and exude confidence when we do step out.
