We were lucky to catch up with Rijoun Murphy recently and have shared our conversation below.
Rijoun, appreciate you joining us today. Let’s kick things off with talking about how you serve the underserved, because in our view this is one of the most important things the small business community does for society – by serving those who the giant corporations ignore, small business helps create a more inclusive and just world for all of us.
Opportunities come every once in blue moon, most importantly depending on or your geographical location the opportunity of becoming successful lessens. My purpose is to show others this theory change be shifted while also creating job opportunities at the same time. I’m Order to fulfill the needs and wants of others, Di-VerZe E.N.T was created for those with the skill sets to further their careers in the entertainment industry
As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
Di-VerZe E.N.T is a business with several Branches such as Studio Recording, Radio Broadcasting, Djing, Photography, Videography, Marketing, Podcasting, IT Specialist etc and many more. Di-VerZe HitZ Radio is our broadcasting app which is available and free at your google and Apple store.
Your probably wondering how did you accomplish all of this. In life once you learn how to learn anything can be accomplished. Understanding that this skills were the same skills I obtained as a child I resharpened them and turned them into business which lead to adding adding to skill after another. My First niche in the industry was Studio Recording which I recorded over 100 hundred sessions for free. This allowed me perfect my engineering skills, interact with different people, while also growing the entire business as a whole.
The greatest accomplish I can say is that I have received great feedback from all over the world, recieving 100 5 star reviews was great it shows all the hard work that I am doing is paying off big time. Customer service is a huge factor in why the businesses continue to thrive in a heavily saturated market
How about pivoting – can you share the story of a time you’ve had to pivot?
They say everyone has a plan until…….. If Your able to read this I’m sure you know the famous line from smoke Tyson. If not then yes I got punched in the face. Life doesn’t always pan out the way we expected it. I planned on being in the corporate world with my Degree, which at the time wasn’t a bad goal. That plan just didn’t work out in my favor after applying for over 200 hundreds job applications and never recieveing the job I though I would obtain. God Had other plans which was for me to create my business and help other teach their highest potentials. The reason I knew this was for me was because the same job I decided to let go and pursue My business was the same place I got an opportunity to DJ ( true story lol). It turned out to be one of the best decisions I have made in my life
How did you put together the initial capital you needed to start your business?
In order to fund my business in the beginning I used all my work money to purchase all equipment and software I needed to service anyone. I would save all my tip money I made from being a bellman at the Sheraton. This took several months of what we call staying down for the come up. But I know it’s not a come up because there’s always a way of advancing whatever you are building which takes money. You will always spend if you want the business to grow
