We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Jasmine Jeffrey a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Jasmine , thank you so much for joining us and offering your lessons and wisdom for our readers. One of the things we most admire about you is your generosity and so we’d love if you could talk to us about where you think your generosity comes from.
Generosity for me comes from the feeling I get being someone’s blessing. It’s a rewarding feel I can’t describe. There were times in my past where either someone was a blessing to me or I wish there were. I also believe in karma, which can be either good or bad. I love it here on the good side. I like to accrue what’s call karmic credit.
Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?
I love helping people so I wanted to make a business out of something else I love. I help entrepreneurs by being their one stop shop to get up and running. I thoroughly studied Supply Chains, Logistics, and how to maximize profit. I am a Business Intelligence & Analytics Manager by day. So I figured why not do it in my community. I moved to Atlanta which is the Mecca of entrepreneurship these days and got to it. I love not only growing my network, but helping to growing peoples dreams without them getting got. I have a warehouse in China and UK where I order and store products for local business owners. The logistics side of my business is dispatching. Allocating carriers to routes sometimes for a direct client of mine while others are for a third party shipper. I love to show business owners how valuable analytics are to their business. There is a reason these corporations are paying for it. To spread the knowledge and see how much easier it makes the lives of business owners. Seeing them streamlining their business processes is a feeling of success I can’t explain.
There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
Patience, consistency and network. Building relationships are a great way to improve in every aspect. Exchanging knowledge, resources and even ideas can be very impactful. I would say early on it is important to do your research on your industry. Knowing your market and know the demand for your specific product or service. Consistency is key even on days it feels like that key is jammed. Eventually you’ll unlocked the doors to your dreams.
Awesome, really appreciate you opening up with us today and before we close maybe you can share a book recommendation with us. Has there been a book that’s been impactful in your growth and development?
There is a book called “You Can Have What You Want If You Find It Within Yourself” by Robert E Russell. I cheated and listened to the audible lol but it was a breakthrough book. Had me cry and realize I had full control of my success all along. It really teaches you how the mind, life, affirmations and laws of attraction work, AND why!
