Welcome to the third installment of FinanceSmartz: The Entrepreneurship Series! I had the privilege of speaking with Chef Dennis Stanley of Chantel’s Bakery. Chef Dennis has built his business and served clients from President Obama, President Bush, Vice President-elect Kamala Harris, and other Heads of State to celebrities like Will Smith and Oprah Winfrey! We discussed the importance of relationships and trust, and how to overcome challenges to grow your business.
