Welcome back to the Beard Talk with a Veteran podcast with Tyran Cosby. The topic of this episode came from a few personal experiences that Tyran has had when trying to support black-owned businesses and the thoughts that came to mind as a result.Tyran does his best to support black-owned businesses whenever possible because he wants to see black people do well and succeed despite the lack of support they get from the rest of the world. While it is true that black people have always been mistreated, things are getting better and it isn’t helpful to go around with a chip on your shoulder because of the past or present. Sometimes supporting black-owned businesses has worked out great, but sometimes he has been burned by people who want to win but don’t want to put in the effort. In a few specific instances, Tyran has found himself on the wrong end of a poor business deal because the people he had hired did not communicate effectively and even ignored what he wanted and just did whatever they wanted to do. For Tyran and Gary, Life Behind the Beard has not always been easy, but it has always been worth the effort, and when they have made mistakes, they have owned up in order to make things right. Tyran’s message to other black business owners is: put in the work, communicate, and care about what you are doing. Also, there is only one boss, so if you are not it, know your place and do your best there without copping an attitude.
