FROM WORKING FAST-FOOD RESTAURANTS TO OWNING THEM: MULTI-MILLIONAIRE SPEAKER AND AUTHOR SHARES PRINCIPLES TO HELP METRO DETROITERS FIND HOPE IN THE MIDST OF DESPAIR Motivational Speaker, Author & Entrepreneur, Ken Brown, Presents The Life Xperience
DETROIT, MI—A job at McDonald's? What?!
That's probably the reaction that most teens and young adults would have at the thought of such "menial" labor. But for Ken Brown, flipping burgers turned into solid work ethics, marketable customer-relations skills, and a multi-million-dollar enterprise.
Brown, president and CEO of Brown Food Group—a company he built from his early days as a McDonald's restaurant franchise owner—will share his recipe for success with business owners and aspiring entrepreneurs at The Life Xperience seminar on January 14th from 6:00 – 9:30 p.m., at the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History. Guests will receive tips on how to increase growth and sales potential and generate winning ideas in this down economy. The seminar, hosted by popular Fox 2 Detroit newscaster and WJLB FM 98 radio personality, Charles Pugh, also includes performances by Stellar Award winning gospel artist J Moss and recording group 21:03.
Brown, a multi-millionaire born to parents 13 and 14 years old who had 5 children by the ages of 19 and 20, attributes his financial and business success to faith in God and the application of biblical teachings.
"We lived in poverty, but poverty never lived in us," says Brown of his upbringing. "Life is 10 percent of what happens to you and 90 percent of how you respond to it."
Brown's award-winning book, A Leap of Faith (previously titled From Welfare to Faring Well, Ken Brown International, 2005), is the story of making opportunities out of obstacles, rather than being a victim of circumstance. Brown continues to elaborate on that message of empowerment in his latest book, Living In Freedom Everyday (L.I.F.E.) (Ken Brown International, 2008).
L.I.F.E. introduces and expounds on "six principles for successful living" that will challenge, encourage, and equip people to activate their faith and accomplish their full potential in this life.
Brown, a highly sought after global speaker, has proven to be a formidable presence in the arena of entrepreneurial accomplishment. For more information and to purchase tickets for The Life- Xperience, please visit www.kenbrowninternational.com.
