Written By: Samantha Cee
This month we sat down with rising entrepreneur “The Credit Assist” CEO. Get the inside scoop on the rising brand in the exclusive interview below.
FGM: Its an honor to sit down with you all. Tell us a little about your brand and how you've come to this vastly successful peek in your career .
My baby is called the creditassist.com , I help people fix their credit , in a world where credit holds more weight than cash, I help my community by allowing them to get to that next level , whether it's buying your first home for passive income or just getting that luxury car you have always wanted .
FGM: Who are the clients/what are the projects that you most enjoy working on?
I love working with my Latin community, we tend to be very ignorant when it comes to credit. Bankruptcy is my specialty; it gives me a challenge. It's so easy to go apply for bankruptcy but they make it difficult for you to try and remove it from your credit report. That's where I come in.
FGM: How do you feel you make a difference in the world?
Answer: I make a difference in the world by helping clients reach their dreams, I’ve put more than 300+ individuals into homes, I provide the information for my community for my people to allow them to beat the system. That makes me feel like wonder woman
FGM: Tell us about a time when you showed determination to continue as an entrepreneur
I came here with no papers , I was an immigrant , when you have no choice but to work and deal with people who talk down to you because they know you're illegal , you start thinking I can't work for anyone but myself. I can't take somebody telling me what to do.
FGM: Give me the three best qualities of your brand.
Audience knowledge, consistency, passion
FGM: Give me an example of when you worked irregular hours?
I work irregular hours everyday , I don’t want to go back to a 9-5 that’s not for me. I work late and on the weekends , in my business if I get 8hours of sleep that’s difficult. I am a curious person , I read , I google , I pride myself in learning new things so I can teach my clients.
FGM: Being a entrepreneur is a 24/7 job, how did you get ready for that?
Answer: the day I got fired from my regular job and saw my position posted two days later. I knew there was a reason why this was happening.
FGM: How did you acquire the ability to work under pressure to beat meet deadlines as a entrepreneur ?
Answer: meditation, I also hired help so that I can focus on the main task , I have an assistant who does minor task , while wonder woman saves the world.
FGM: What is your favorite inspirational point, place, to develop new brand developments?
Answer: I live in the Bronx nyc, I tend to run to the GW bridge when I’m exercising , just being out there in the open looking at the water feeling the breeze on my face allows my mind to think clearly.
FGM: Which current public figure, are you inspired by or appreciate the most?
Answer: mark Cuban. Have you read his back story? He was a bartender when he started to look at him now. I love how aggressive he is , his style is cocky but humble
How do you handle stress ?
Answer: I take therapy, most people think it’s for mentally ill but in reality talking to someone is therapeutic. I see my therapist 3 times a week & not only has it healed me as a person but it also allows me to breathe.
FGM: What are the three qualities you feel an entrepreneur must have ?
Answer: Determination, persistency, passion
FGM: Where do you see your business in 10 years? How do you plan to get there ?
Answer: I see myself owning sh*t not owing sh*t. I see credit management classes being taught in high school for the kids. Do you know how far ahead in life I would be if I knew what I know now? I'm currently in the process of a nonprofit program but I cannot say the details, just know it's coming soon.
