TrendSetters Elite Meets Johnny Cupcakes

     If you have been following our brand since close to the beginning or if you are into the "street wear" clothing scene you know of the brand Johnny Cupcakes. We've been working independently for some time now and draw much inspiration from other brands, not just clothing brands, but this brand has put a twist on street wear since their inception in the early 2000's.
     Johnny Cupcakes is a brand that took a simple cupcake and crossbones and turned it into a wildly popular clothing line. The brand has tricked people over the years to think it was a cupcake shop, when in fact it is a clothing line that markets its brands exceptionally well, from photography, to packaging, to product, to even hand written notes and secret messages in the gear. This brand has done it all and continues to reinvent itself, as well as shed light on how to build a brand and stay relevant to would be and future entrepreneurs.
     Tonight the team at TrendSetters Elite Clothing Co. were able to sit in on Johnny Cupcakes lecture in Ann Arbor for the Johnny Cupcakes Coffin Tour. We had the opportunity to hear the lessons learned, mistakes made and all of his tweaks made to become such as successful brand. He also shared some inside information only you can learn from being at one of his lectures (I'd highly recommend anyone wanting to start a brand to attend one of his events!). All in all this is an experience to remember, and that is what his brand is all about, the experience. So thanks from TrendSetters Elite to Johnny Cupcakes, Keep up the good work, and hey you never know one day we may be honored to work with you or bless the stage and give some of our story to help the future learn to keep striving!

2. Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a beggar.
3. Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less food that is manufactured in plants.
4. Live with the 3 E’s - Energy, Enthusiasm and Empathy
5. Play more games.
6. Read more books than you did in 2010.
7. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day.
8. Sleep for 7 hours.

Time Is Of The Essence

Here is an excerpt taking from a blog I read, in which speaks of business, relationships, and is all around insightful

Time is the most valuable commodity. I can testify for this.

You want women. So you get 50 books on seduction, study the art throughly, you do 20 approaches a day for a year, you change how you look, you become Alpha. You have women.

You want money. You work your ass off, go through business idea after idea, finally you strike gold. You learn the basics of financing, pick up some management skills, continue expanding, you do everything it takes to remained focused. Now you have money.

You want knowledge. You read novel after novel, you read journal after journal, you read the classics, you read contemporary works, you read science, you read history, you read everything you can get your hands on. Now you have knowledge.

Finally, you want to help other people. So you make a blog to spread the word about your ideas You work at it, work at it, work at it, you unplug people, you share your wisdom, finally you’re making a change. A big change.

Slowly all of these goals are coming to you. But something’s itching at the back of your conscious.

You want more women? Done.

You want more money? Done.

You want to change lives? Done.

You want more time to do more things? Impossible.

Maybe that’s why I muse about the void so much; a projection of my own id. But keep this in mind so you never forget how stupid it sounds when people say “let’s kill time and do nothing.” It’s ironic because with everything else in life, you start with nothing and must build it yourself. With time, you start with as much as you’ll ever have, and then slowly, it ticks away.

The Beautiful Process Of Adaptation

When I look at the stages of growth of a business (from my experience and working with others in their business) I realize much success for an entrepreneur lies in their ability to adapt to situations and different stages in the companies growth. The way I see entrepreneurship its like an Art & theres about 3 stages to it:

1st Stage Your The Creator & Your The Inventor, Trying To Prove A Concept

2nd Stage Is Your The Manager, Your Actually Working To Scale The Company, Your Actually Working To Build, Your Actually Working To Prosper In That Regard 

An The Last Part Is Your Actually The Executer, Your Actually Executing Against A Potential Outcome, An That Itself Is A Different Strategy.

All 3 Require A Completely Different Approach & Its Up To You To Mold Yourself As A Company Grows So You Know Exactly How To Act At Different Stages In The Companies Growth.
