Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Thompson Auguste. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Alright, Thompson thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. We’d love to hear the story of how you went from this being just an idea to making it into something real.
In this life, there are players, coaches, and owners. When I graduated from high school, I wasn’t certain about my path, but one thing was clear: I aspired to become an owner. I delved into personal finance and discovered the cash flow quadrant, and my goal was to position myself on the right side of it. Since the age of 14, I had been involved in video production, so I decided to start my first business in that field. At the outset, I had no concrete idea of what I would offer or how I would generate income, so I turned to prayer for guidance.
Upon high school graduation, I had various options, including pursuing a basketball career, but ultimately, I took a year to immerse myself in the word of God. My faith and belief in God formed the bedrock of my journey. I believed that God placed individuals in my life to steer me in the right direction, and I possessed an unwavering determination to become my own boss, with God as my foundation. I enrolled in a one-year college Bible program in Tampa, Florida, to discern what should take precedence and entrust my plans to the Lord.
During that year, I had already established my LLC before heading off to college, and my video production business began to flourish. As time went on, I realized that the more I learned, the more I grew, and the more I comprehended how much I still had to learn. I focused on honing my business management skills, expanding my enterprise, continually embracing the role of a student in the game of entrepreneurship, building relationships, and planning ahead to start other businesses and investments.
Thompson, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

What’s been the most effective strategy for growing your clientele?
Bring value to the table. It’s not solely about how much I can earn; it’s about the impact and value I can deliver, addressing the needs and gaps of my clients. You can expand your client base through referrals from your existing clients who speak positively about your work. Over time, as you gain more experience in the marketplace, you’ll attract clients through various channels and marketing efforts. Always prioritize transparency, maintain consistency, and foster strong relationships with your clients.
What’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative in your experience?
The entire process is significant, but if I had to pick, I would say the final product. Although there is an extensive process involving pre-production, production, and post-production, the end result holds the most significance. especially when it is a project for a client.
