(For every page's details, please scroll down.)

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.

An Interview: Nothing Bundt Cakes

Having completed, and posted my interview with Leif Johnson of The Nothing BundtCakes Franchise bakery in the Arboretum area in Austin, Texas, I want to highlight the interview itself and a few lessons from the conversation.

Nothing Bundt Cakes was actually started by Dena Tripp and Debbie Schwetz. Originally a sided project to entertain friends and family, it soon took off and is now a nationwide franchise opportunity for most.

This is the opportunity Leif and Caitlin saw in Las Vegas, and took it up after working in the corporate world for a while. Leif's story of how he came in contact with the opportunity is itself funny: A referral gift to one of the franchises.

And Leif goes into the details of that story, and a number of things like starting a franchise in it's early stages, the difficulties of running a franchise, hiring, what makes them special, and a few others.

I will not take it all away---Enjoy.

You will get nothing useless from me. Be assured.
