We were lucky to catch up with Lenard Meyers recently and have shared our conversation below.
Lenard , looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. How did you come up with the idea for your business?
I would scream Energy Check everyday on Social Media, The Social Media check up soon became a phenomenon. From there my agent told me to print Energy Check on tshirts and sell them. From there my brand was born.
Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.
I have always been passionate about giving back. After I finished playing football at the highest level, I wanted to get back into serving others. During my football career, I remembered how great people felt when I cut their hair.
Clippers were a tool I used to help people regain their confidence after a haircut. This led me to launch a mobile barber business..
My barber business has been successful thanks to my social media marketing, which has led to various opportunities, including modeling.
I’m a celebrity barber/model,
Those 2 careers listed above catapulted me in my next venture. Energy Check, which is a male and female wellness clothing brand.
My work ethic alone sets me apart from most people, but my God-given abilities make it hard for others to compete. I’ve only learned to work hard for what I want, and I’ve never been able to take the easy path.
We’d love to hear about how you met your business partner.
I was at a crossroads with my career. Everything was going great, but I know it was something missing and I wanted a new level. As I continued to pray, my future business partner sent me a dm about modeling, which became my new level.
What’s worked well for you in terms of a source for new clients?
My heat source has been Instagram and work of mouth, along with my modeling career.
