Theme/Purpose
At Southern Entrepreneur, CEOs who built their companies from the ground up - not appointed
CEOs - will share their story, including the obstacles and victories they encountered along the way. Southern Entrepreneur provides viewers the opportunity to grasp a deeper understanding of what it takes to build a successful business.
Reason
Fake entrepreneurs on social media gather and rewrite popular how–to articles found on the internet, then
package, market, and sell them for hundreds of dollars. Inexperienced entrepreneurs buy it and are often left misguided, confused, and taken advantage of. We are giving entrepreneurs in the south an opportunity to learn first hand what it
takes to build a business from CEOs who have actually accomplished it.
