Learn How These Entrepreneurs Elevated Their Dreams with smartwater and Complex Conversations

To become a successful entrepreneur, there are certain skill sets you need that aren’t taught, per se, in a classroom. A laser-sharp focus, crystal-clear vision and a work ethic elevated above the rest, are just some of the tools you’ll need to succeed.

However, there comes a time in every entrepreneur’s life where they must make a choice: either stay the course, as rocky as it currently may be, or take a safer, more secure route? For Cole Bennett, Beth Birkett-Gibbs, and Kendrick Sampson, they decided to follow their dreams come hell or high water.
