Kandi Notes

At the recent Ladies Who Brunch Atlanta "Royal Tea" event, I got the opportunity to hear some of my favorite business women speak. The above pic shows the panelists and hosts(L-R) Dayira Jones (Co-Founder of Ladies Who Brunch Atlanta), Emily B. (Celebrity Wardrobe Stylist/Shoe Designer/Vh1's Love & Hip Hop New York), Latasha Wright (Celebrity Makeup Artist/Cosmetic Line Creator), Necole B. (Entertainment Blogger), Kandi Burruss (Grammy Award Winning Artist/Serial Entrepreneur/Bravo's Real Housewives of Atlanta), Cynthia Bailey (Supermodel/The Bailey Agency/Bravo's Real Housewives of Atlanta), and Bianca Rush (Co-Founder of Ladies Who Brunch Atlanta)


But my favorite business advice came from singer/songwriter/entrepreneur/ reality star Kandi Burruss. Below are a few of her business pointers:
-Use your name in your business ventures for branding purposes
-Trademark your name and buy all of your web domains
-When it comes to new ventures, don't always think you are going to make money. You may have to work for free, but look at the opportunity and not the money. 
There were so many women in business to network with and so much business wisdom to take in. And on top of that, I got to hit the photo booth with one of my fav bloggers: Kiwi The Beauty! I'm so ready for the next Ladies Who Brunch event.
