We started out...

Last night Denny and I attended a panel discussion @ the National Center for the Preservation of Democracy in downtown Los Angeles. It was pretty amazing to hear how brands such as Fresh Jive, The Hundreds, and Hellz Bellz started. Each speaker spoke about topics that were relatable to striving entrepreneurs and did a Q & A segment afterwards. We couldn't help but laugh when we heard Bobby and Ben Hundreds say "We started out in our [bedrooms]," and "Everyone was saying 'No, you won't make it.'" Because that's where we are!

Rick Koltz, Fresh Jive, starts off the lecture.


When, Hellz Creative Director, Lanie took the stage and spoke about her upcoming I was all over it. I saw myself in her, from having the parents that don't approve of your school choices to having a creative mind that no one really understands, but yet doing what you want because it's what you believe in.

After the discussion, D and I were able to speak to Bobby and Lanie about DWB and they gave us great advice for what we can do as a team to further the brand.




Then… it was off to fill our growling tummies with spicy ramen. YUM!
