I am Kingston, and this is my project page.

This site is to document my journey through projects to help individuals and small business owners with a couple things that could make a difference.

I do this via mini projects. I also write, and I recently released my eBook ( Get To Know Your Backyard Opportunity), based on the lessons from my 21-Day project here in Austin, TX.

This book is aimed at highlighting the initiative we can all take to gather valuable skills in writing, communication, and interacting with people through an interview project in our local communities. The benefits could be life-changing.

Update Note: In the meantime, you can also pick up a free copy of my released mini-guide: Start With A Story: A Mini Guide On Opening Your Book With A Tale.

And also check out my latest startup in NYC, Kilimanjaro.

Day 2: Interview, Short Day

Day 2 had me first in an interview with Alfred of Central Market, New York. This being a Friday, and the interview at 3:30, I did what I could of the remaining time after the interview, before 5 pm hit, when it's against sense to keep prospecting. So I made stops at a few more shops before heading home.

But my interview with Mr. Alfred Caldonado went well. In no time, we were done. We went over topics like how he started his business, what they provide to their customers (who are mostly commuters headed to Westchester from Grand Central), the challenges of a small business owner in New York City (in the small eateries industry), and what he enjoys the most about his work.

You can check the upload for my new page for this project's podcast.

Right after,  I made stops at Cafe metro, Ashley's Fine Foods, Eastside Luggage and at a Barber shop.

But for Cafe Metro, which was corporately owned, I took a business card from Eastside Luggage, and Ashley's and the Barber Shop were not in a position to participate in the project. 

With night falling, I wanted to head home, and call it a day. I did. Again a short day this one was, but not a bad for the second day, a slow start is all. The next day is on Monday, the 12, for day 3.


On to it.

You will get nothing useless from me. Be assured.
