FRANK SOLMAN

HOLLYWOOD MONTHLY ENTREPRENEUR SPOTLIGHT Business Mogul FRANK SOLMAN

BY ANTHONY EWART

Hollywood Weekly is an International publication distributed in countries throughout the world in airports and train stations connecting neighboring countries. As such we pride ourselves in making the world a little closer in understanding each other. If we understand each other we build up an "appreciation for cultural diversity," which is much different than having a "tolerance."

We find ourselves now focusing on the beautiful country of AZERBAIJAN, which is where our HM Entrepreneur Spotlight Frank Solman is from. Azerbaijan is fully covered to the east by the historic and glorious Caspian Sea. How many stories were inspired by writers sitting and gazing at the Caspian Sea. How many ideas did Frank Solman think of as a boy looking at the Caspian Sea?

A successful entrepreneur doesn’t happen by accident or by chance. It’s

a long process. Frank always says “ becoming a successful entrepreneur it’s not an easy task! There are certain qualities and strategies that are absolutely necessary if you would like to become successful in your business ventures.” He strongly believes in “Not only hard work but also smart work pays off.”

Mr. Solman grew up in a family who were in the precious metals business.

Traders. Designers, most importantly. This high-level of aesthetic artistry has had a lasting affect on Mr. Solman. The level of respect for craftsmanship and attention to details one must have to be successful in the golden and diamond business is now embodied in the work Frank does. He learned from his parents you have to love what you do. Love the actual piece of artistry you make -- whatever it is that you create.

When I saw Frank driving to our office in his yellow Lamborghini that has somehow resisted any dust particles landing on it from Frank’s Drive to the office it makes you wonder if Frank stops every few blocks to give his beloved Lamborghini a light dusting. I love that car.

What makes Frank Solman our entrepreneur spotlight is his zest and love for life and his incredible business instincts and success. Here’s a little story: Frank Solman graduated from law school. In his early 20s he moved with his family to the United States, or as Frank phrases, the land of opportunity. He’s a family man. A loving father of two girls and a great husband. As his wife Anna says ”Frank is always energetic, positive and full of great ideas! He is optimistic and full of hope. He always find positivity in every negativity. He has strong family relationships. His family always comes first, that’s why we are so proud of him!”

When Frank first arrived in America his goal was to continue studying for his law accreditation to pursue his career. In the meantime Frank worked his way up the ladder of success in the remodeling business, and at the same time

he developed passion for flipping real estate. That is when Frank slowly began to lose interest in becoming a lawyer. His 'attention to detail' honed by his parents who, through their success, provided a great "business model" of gold and diamond distribution. Frank Was able to "conceptualize homes" and bring them into manifestation through his remodeling business. This creative skill also allowed Frank to succeed exceedingly well at flipping homes. Frank can look at any home and visualize the potential "on the spot!" That's when you start “batting at thousand.”

As any successful businessman Frank has been through hard times and good times. Frank says this is the cost of doing business. During one encounter Frank had with an International client he was offered payment with "bitcoins." Frank had never heard of "bitcoins" discussed but he liked the concept. It made sense to Frank and he had a feeling... It turned out to be the kind of hunch that is the "deciding factor" of so many successful careers. Frank decided to purchase a good share of bitcoin's stock. The rest is history...

Frank invested into new start up businesses where he also made some of his fortune. My favorite quote from Frank Solman: “I wouldn’t be successful if I didn’t set my daily, monthly and yearly goals. Goals are fuel in the furnace.”

This little story explains Franks passion for his mansion, his divinely gorgeous cars ( a Green Mercedes AMG GT which is my favorite). His car collection includes a Rolls Royce, Lamborghini AND Maserati. At the same time he is an avid watch collector of brands such as Richard Mille, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet and so on. “Time is money," Frank loves to say, "You have to value your time.” This "partially" explains why he continues to work so hard! Frank Solman works like today’s the deadline he has to meet in raising a massive amount of money and if he doesn’t meet that deadline for today he loses everything!! Of course, that’s not true, but he makes himself "believe it" to drive himself further and farther through life. That’s the work ethic created by growing up in the gold and diamond business.

At the present moment Frank Solman is the CEO of Leadsack Inc and SoCAL ENERGY Inc. Leadsack is a business platform for a "lead generation business." SoCal Energy inc handles home remodeling in all manner of construction or improvements related to homes. He simply loves what he does. However what Frank really loves is sharing his years of experience with new start up businesses. That is the true fun and passion for Frank Solman, and along with his strong work ethic and love for his family and friends, this is why he’s been successful in America. We salute you Frank Solman and your wonderful country of Azerbaijan!
