Our guest today is a man who epitomizes entrepreneurship; Dan Bowling, President of The Genesis Company. The Genesis Company provides end-to-end solutions for entrepreneurs by bringing their brands and ideas to retail. The framework they use is one Dan adopted from Marc Lore, a markedly famous serial entrepreneur he's followed for many years. Using the acronym VCP, which stands for Vision, Capital and People, Dan has utilized this model for every company he's launched and grown.
Hearing Dan's story, it seems he was a 'born leader', even on the playground! The other kids would look to Dan for direction on how they'd be spending that day's recess, and Dan never disappointed. Fast forward to today, and you'll find Dan still in a leadership role that focuses on collaboration, both internally and externally. He considers himself a member of the team, more than the boss, and the longevity of his loyal employees proves their job satisfaction and how strong the company culture is.
Dan is a person who likes to help others. Whenever he learns of another entrepreneur feeling stuck on how to move forward, Dan's advice is always to go to your network. He believes that people by nature want to help others, yet we don't ask for help like we could from the people we know, like and trust: our network.
The Genesis Company puts great value in giving back to the community. Its employees determine which charities the company will donate to or sponsor and they're usually tied to organizations that cater to the welfare of children.
