We were lucky to catch up with Isaiah Bennett recently and have shared our conversation below.
Isaiah, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today Do you take vacations? How do you keep things going – any advice for entrepreneurs who feel like they can’t step away from their business for a short vacation?
Yes I love to take vacations with my friends and family. As a business owner I keep things going by hiring reliable works and mangers that can run my business when necessary. My advice to any entrepreneur is to hire a staff that you call a second family, a trust worthy team. Hire people that love you and there job and everything else will fall in place.
Isaiah, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
Hi my name is Isaiah Bennett, I’m a African American male that’s 32. I have always had a passion of modeling. I knew I was a model growing up as a kid taking a lot of pictures. Every where I went I took pictures I would even walk down the sidewalk practicing craft. I moved to Atl in 2023 and I went to my first casting call here .Ever since I’ve been eating going to fashion shows throughout the metro Atlanta area. I was invited to walk in New York fashion week which was one of the best experiences in life a model could ever ask for. I’m walking in Milan fashion week 2024 so my model life is the best, but of course there’s always room for more practice.
What’s a lesson you had to unlearn and what’s the backstory?
A lesson I had to learn is never believe a company have everything in writing. I was in a fashion show competition here in Atlanta. The completion was to sell the most tickets and the top ticket winner will receive a flight and hotel compensation to New York. Well the backstory of it is I won and never got compensation for it I ended up paying for the trip myself because I really want to experience NFW
We’d love to hear about how you met your business partner.
I met my business partner 6 years ago through a friend. Now my business partner is my wife and we are the best at what we do.
