So you should know the Jay-Z meeting is smarter. You should know partnerships mean more than money and if you could have Jay supporting you that's bigger than the bread. To use that meeting as the chance to win over Jay-Z and getting someone worth over a billy on your side is major.
You’d basically be paying $50,000 to have that meeting with no guarantees in return.


Jay-Z won’t even support the artists he signed, Why the fukk would he support you? :snoop:

nikkas asking Jay z for in advice on running their landscaping business

:russ: Nikkaz trimming hedges and throwing up the Roc.

If you owned a viable landscaping business you would be a fool not to take the meeting. Short term small minded thinking like this is why folks like yall stay broke. Need access to business capital? Jay knows people you can't get in the room with. Jay knows people who own entire hotel chains and have huge landscaping contracts. He knows politicians and govt contracts are notorious for being awarded based on who you know.

Also Didnt jay and B purchase just purchase a Belaire estate worth $88 million? Look how big this place is..
20 Photos of Beyonce and Jay Z's Bel Air Mansion.
The upkeep and landscaping on that probably exceeds 50k per year. And this is just 1 of several mansions he owns.

What about the nfl? Jay can get Goodell on the phone or any team owner. They all have huge landscaping contracts. How diverse are of those landscaping contractors? How many black owned landscapers working with the nfl? Jay is also consulting the nfl on diversity efforts as well. Perhaps the convo with him should start there.

I'm not rich or anything, but I'm not broke either. That's a hell of an assumption. Everybody isn't built to hustle Another assumption you are making is that a local landscaper is going to get a contract to maintain a 88 million dollar estate. Even though it's technically landscaping, it is absolutely not the same thing at all. Also, there is no such thing as a government landscaping contract; that's done internally usually through the same department that does parks and recreation.

You're talking like an expert, but I'm questioning your knowledge on this subject :jbhmm:

There are lots government landscaping contract. What the hell are you talking about? I've worked on RFP's before. You have no idea how contracting and local cities and states work. They contract out all types of landscaping work. Here are some examples.
Grounds / Landscaping Bids, Contracts, RFPs from Government Agencies

And I'm not making assumptions. You guys stated there is no reason to meet with jay if you have a landscaping company. I gave several simple examples of how he can potentially benefit a landscaping company. The fact that you don't see those angles tells me everything I need to know about your business acumen. Successful entrepreneurs see opportunity in places the average person overlooks. That's why I'm more successful than most including most on here.. It wouldn't immediately come to someones mind that Jay has residences that cost well over 50k to maintain the grounds. Even offering to do it at a discounted rate would benefit a landscaper cause it gets you in the company of elite clientele and referrals to other million dollar properties. 50k aint much money.. My car almost cost that much.. Give me the dinner anyday.

You just googled some stuff to save face. None of that has anything to do with Jay-z. You don’t have any business acumen. You just a dude posting on the coli pretending to be something that you’re not.

With $50,000 you can buy your own advertisements :what:

:snoop:

You know how much advertising cost? 50k doesn't get you national advertising. It wont even get you a full page ad in the wallstreet journal or any other national media. Those companies got exposure worth 100s of thousands of dollars.

Breh idk if you’re a dumbass or what but he didn’t buy them ads in any of those publications. He bought ads in 35 black owned newspapers/magazines such as:

“were highlighted in the Michigan Chronicle, The Washington Informer, The Dallas Examiner, the Houston Forward Times, the Arizona Informant and several other publications between July 1 and July 7”


The same shyt you could do if you took the $50,000 :heh:

I'm obviously smarter than you and brought facts to prove it. You are too dumb to even use google before making a dumb statement.

Why would he hire you after 1 dinner meeting? What if you live across the country?

If you have a small landscaping business, you wouldn’t have the manpower or equipment to service a government contract. Even if you did, is one dinner really enough to get him to drop your name to people?

The only reason you know about these ads is cause Jay's name is associated with it. These black companies got 10x the exposure of just buying a random ad due to the Jay z celebrity factor. Go ahead and waste 50k buying those same ads and see if anyone cares.

Why would anyone ever hire you period? How you sell yourself is up to you. We are not arguing random what if scenarios. There are a million of those. just like someone could take the 50k and lose it all in a bad investment. Entrepreuners take risk everyday.. some fail, some succeed.. either way the successful never give up. Scared money dont make money.
