CAPITOL BEAUTY SCHOOL EXCELS INTO 100TH YEAR Dave Potter, CEO of the nationally-accredited cosmetology and esthetics school Capitol Beauty School, knows a little something about being part of a long sustaining educational institution in Omaha. In fact, Potter is helping the organization not only sustain, but excel into its 100th year. Capitol was founded in the Roaring ‘20s, 1923 to be specific. It owes its name to the original location of the school – at Capitol Avenue in downtown Omaha. Under new ownership, the school was moved to a new location near 108th Street and John Galt Boulevard some 34 years later. It was the succeeding change of hands that Potter isolated as among the most pivotal phases in the cosmetology school’s history. “The driving force, from 1969 to 2018, was the leadership and education provided to the students by the owners, Judy and Lyal McCaig,” Potter said. Previous owners Vi Stehno and Audrey Hunt embarked on a nationwide search to find leadership to “take their facility to new heights of quality and education.” They didn’t have to look far; the McCaigs resided in Nebraska, having successfully operated a salon in North Platte, Nebraska. The duo had left a
national mark as well, with Lyal being named the youngest styles director in the National Hair Fashion Committee’s history. “Lyal’s innovative teaching methodologies and practices had a huge impact on the industry before he passed in 2007,” Potter said. Notably, he was inducted into the National Cosmetology Association’s Hall of Renown and would go on to be named as the National Hairdressers and Cosmetologists Association (NHCA) national styles director numerous times throughout his career. “Judy continued on with the assistance of her son, Scott,” Potter noted. The McCaig family would resume ownership for 50 years. Alongside Potter are owners Matt and Nancy Meduna. Potter further credits Skylar McCaig, who serves as Capitol’s director of operations, and the team they have assembled at Capitol, with its legacy. As noted in Capitol information, third-generation family leadership also includes McCaig’s wife, Danyelle McCaig. They became part-owners in 2021. Capitol also has the distinction of outlasting other educational facilities in the market.

“There were nine beauty schools in the Omaha area when the McCaigs purchased Capitol,” Potter said, taking us back again to the late 1960s. “Their continued excellence and growth had reduced that to just two schools when they sold it in 2018.” With an enviable milestone fast approaching, Potter indicated in April that plans for its 100 years are still in the works. But, he noted, the anniversary will engage team members, students and graduates – with internal and external open house events.
Setting the Stage
The team is hardly resting on its laurels, with a series of accomplishments to celebrate. Potter said Capitol has been headquartered out of its current locale, at 10803 John Galt Blvd., for almost a quarter of a century – since 2008. Accordingly, he remarked that “it was time” for a remodel, a project that was completed last fall. “With the increasing number of cosmetology students and customers, we needed to increase the number of salon chairs from 50 to 60, while also adding additional shampoo bowls,” Potter explained. “We also increased the number of, and updated all, service rooms for our esthetician students and their customers.” Additional upgrades, according to Potter, included an updated spray tan room and two more rooms dedicated exclusively to lashes. “We opened up some areas, while also adding new lighting and flooring,” he added. Potter said the team hears time and time again that the remodeled facility looks and feels like a ‘real’ salon— something, he said, is what Capitol has always strived for. To accommodate the school’s enrollment growth, Potter also said Capitol opened a satellite classroom space in Bel Air Plaza at 120th Street and West Center Road last May. He spoke at greater length about the need for additional classroom space. “In order to expand and remodel our main facility, we decided to relocate our cosmetology freshman class to Bel Air Plaza for the first 300 hours of their 1,800-hour program,” he explained. “An increased demand for estheticians in salons and spas has resulted in us increasing our class size for that program as well, which required a larger classroom.” According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Outlook Handbook, between 2020 and 2030, employment for barbers, hairstylists and cosmetologists will grow by 19% (almost 120,000 people) – for projected growth that is characterized as “much faster than average” when compared to all occupations. Many of the openings in the next eight years, the BLS contends, are “expected to result from the need to replace workers who
transfer to different occupations or exit the labor force, such as to retire.” Thus far, the satellite location has been received “very well,” Potter said, by both students and instructors alike. “They aren’t as distracted by the normal activity of our main campus,” he said. “It’s been open almost a year now and the students seem to be learning and retaining at a higher rate.” With that being said, Potter noted Capitol leadership have acknowledged that students still need to be part of, and integrated with, the main campus. They have adapted accordingly. The program is designed with different instructors during the week (depending on subject matter), and students are integrated into the main campus for classes and activities at times. It was another ubiquitous change, the pandemic, that actually accelerated the timing of Capitol’s remodel, according to Potter, who said that the opening of the satellite location resulted in 22 less people on the main campus on a daily basis. “Increasing the number of stations and shampoo bowls in our salon allowed for more social distancing for customers, students and instructors,” he said, adding, “Most of our office staff spends at least one day each week working from home.” True to its history, Potter said Capitol’s admissions department is very selective about the students that are enrolled. “We want to be sure they are ready for what is required of our programs,” he said. “We want them to graduate with a lot of experience and training from our customer base/instructors.” The level of training is, perhaps, best illustrated with its list of notable graduates who have launched their own salons in many geographic areas, transforming and enriching the industry landscape. Close to home, graduates who have opened salons in Omaha include: Stephanie Moss (Stephanie Moss Salon), Somer Krueger (Trios), Kirby Keomysay (Kontempo), Ryan Kopiasz (Oliver & Tate), Joe Poff (Rêvé/Wella educator), Zeb Ratcliff (CRAFT Salon/Wella educator), Tara Seng (Moxie Salon and Spa) and Thomas Sena (Garbo’s Salon and Spa) – and this is just a partial list. Potter emphasized Capitol’s community involvement. Students provide haircuts and styling to residents of Ronald McDonald House in Omaha. RMH offers lodging, meals and support to families whose children are receiving medical treatment that isn’t available in their hometowns. “COVID has suspended our activities there [RMH] at various times,” Potter said. “But we are now back down there about one late afternoon every other week, with students and instructors to take care of patients and their families staying there during treatment.”

The best way for investors to survive the current market uncertainty is to stick to the plans they’ve mapped out with their financial advisers and not panic.
Navigating the Market
“It isn’t a time to start selfcorrecting during this type of a market,” Core Bank President and CEO John Sorrell said. “Our clients are revalidating the methodology and for the most part sticking with it. If you believe in the methodology, you’re going to have these cycles.” Volatility in the stock and bond market has impacted the clients of Harrison Financial Services, but this was expected based on the tremendous run over the last several years in stocks and the record low interest rates in bonds, said founder and CEO Tim Harrison. “Our team has been communicating regularly with our clients and making calls proactively to ensure clients are well informed and comfortable with the overall management of their assets,” he said. “[Our clients] are grateful to have a comprehensive, diversified financial plan in place that they know has been stress-tested for times like these.” Page 6 • July 15, 2022

It isn’t a time to start self-correcting during this type of a market. - JOHN SORRELL, PRESIDENT & CEO OF CORE BANK
“We encourage our members to continue to take advantage of the lower prices in their 401(K),” Cobalt Credit Union President and CEO Robin Larsen said. “Moving investments right now is not beneficial. History repeats itself, and the stock market will come back. Staying on target for your longterm goal is key. It is only a loss if you sell. Having a balanced portfolio, which includes a cash balance in positions, like savings or share certificate with immediate access, can alleviate the need to sell a position when the market has had a substantial decrease.” Andrew Hunt, partner and co-founder of Hiley Hunt, said that the big surprise for some investors in this recent market pull-back is the extraordinarily bad year for bonds. “Many investors assumed that when stocks fall, bonds will always move in the opposite direction — which of course, is not what has happened this year,” he said. “We’ve been helping clients understand that when purchasing bonds, yield is not necessarily the most important driver of investment selection. We must also measure risk premium for the associated return. In the environment leading up to 2022 it was important to select bonds and bond funds that had modest duration and high credit quality, even though that meant sacrificing current income. As we’ve seen it play out this first half of the year, longduration and low credit quality bonds have experienced significant declines relative to the short-duration and high credit quality bonds.” While investment management is important, it’s only a tool to help investors achieve their goals, according to Hunt. Real impact is often driven through planning. “We are spending the bulk of our time with activities like reviewing tax returns to help maximize tax planning opportunities, working together to make sure our clients’ estate plans are squared away, and updating our retirement readiness models for each client,” he said. “As a firm, we have
made investments in hiring additional staff this year to bulk up our capacity to continue to go deep in the planning process for each of our clients.”
Improved Access
In March, Core Bank rolled out its RapidTRAC loan program, a clientcentered digital lending system for businesses. “We believe that [RapidTRAC] is a model that will allow all access to small business opportunities for people to get loans that they may not have had before,” Sorrell said. Over the past few years Core Bank has focused on optimizing the digitalization of its product offerings. For instance, mortgage customers can now do a full application online. “A significant component of our service model is the utilization of a client engagement roadmap, which details in a very transparent way all of the things that we do for our clients,” Harrison said. “The roadmap includes clearly defined dates of planning reviews and implementation, as well as our tactical moves toward value and tax harvesting that we have done on a client’s behalf. The roadmap considers both the historical and future perspective, showing our clients a very clear picture of their overall growth and strategy.” In recent months the firm has seen greater interest in investment vehicles that seem to have been dormant for years. “Given the decline in the bond markets, we have looked for investments that act as fixedincome alternatives,” Harrison said. “Additionally, the demand for inflationprotected investments has increased. Clients are more receptive to asset groups that have underperformed for a number of years, such as value stocks and commodities. It’s important to remember that all investments carry risk and there can be no guarantee of future success.” Hoping to provide guidance and coaching before the member’s credit
score or late payments are affected, Cobalt now has financial counselors on staff to assist its members with budgeting and finances. The credit union offers a bump-up CD rate that
provides flexibility and gives its members the option to change their term on their certificates of deposits. “Promoting financial literacy and
Nebraska is gratitude, because each day is a gift.

educating our members is an important practice,” Larsen said. “When our members have a solid foundation of personal finance, they can make smarter financial decisions.” Cobalt has expanded its current face-to-face interactive teller machines [ITMs] at several of its branch locations and will soon launch contactless debit cards.

“We’ve also seen some businesses reassess their expansion plans or new lines of business until they understand where this market settles down and how bad it goes,” Sorrell said. “No one, including the folks in Washington, understand how deep of recession, or what type of recession, we’re going to have. It has to play out, but I think some businesses are trying to really invest in their people so they don’t

have turnover.” Harrison Financial has seen its small business clients and entrepreneurs implement a variety of tactics to help manage their profits, including locking in long-term borrowing costs, negotiating supply costs by locking in a price for a specified period of time with a guarantee of purchase — purchasing larger quantities of needed materials, increasing salaries to combat overtime and inflation, and re-evaluating business operations to be more productive and cost-efficient. The majority of Hiley Hunt’s small business clients are feeling most of the inflation impact in rising wage expectations from staff. “To accommodate these business needs and retain staff, businesses need to look at increasing the prices of their goods or services, for opportunities to reduce costs, and for non-monetary opportunities to keep employees engaged,” Hunt said. “It is tempting for small businesses to cut marketing spend or to reduce employee fringe benefits to preserve profit margins, but I have observed over the years that this is often the exact opposite of what is required to achieve both survival and growth in adverse economic environments.”

The next 12 to 24 months will be challenging for the financial industry, but the industry itself is healthy. “Mortgage rates have been very good for doing business, [and it’s] the same with construction,” Sorrell said. “Lots of banks have saved up their earnings, putting it into their capital to position themselves for a potential downturn. The quality of loans are good. We’re well positioned to weather out this uncertainty as a whole.

Interest rates will be a challenge for both consumers and banks, but we’ll work together. What we do is come up with alternatives or other products that maybe allow [customers] to do something on a shorter-term horizon that may be a better rate.” Harrison said that the possibility of more “normal” interest rates is the biggest change that the financial industry is facing. With banks and other integrated financial companies having operated in an environment of depressed interest rates for some time now, and with the Federal Reserve squarely on a path to raising rates, there will be impacts on lending rates, interest-bearing savings accounts, and the valuation measures used for public stocks.
“There is likely to be some shakeout in the financial industry for those companies that might have taken on too much leverage and risk to their business, as we may experience a shallow recession in the coming year,” Harrison said. Over the next year, Larsen expects to see a continued increase in auto lending with more cars being available on the market. Home equity loans will continue to increase because, with the ongoing housing shortage, people will decide to enhance their current homes. “The unique intersection of technology, innovation, business model evolution and customer expectations contribute to digital transformation in the financial industry, but face-to face transactions
still matter,” Larsen said. “When a member has trouble completing a digital transaction, they want immediate help, usually through live chat of video on a mobile device.” “The stock market moves in cycles and

BUSINESS ethics
BY KARA SCHWEISS | PHOTO PROVIDED BY BUSINESS ETHICS ALLIANCE
A BUSINESS SCANDAL SPARKED THE CREATION OF BUSINESS ETHICS ALLIANCE IN 2008. TODAY THE ORGANIZATION GUIDES THE LOCAL BUSINESS COMMUNITY IN ENSURING ETHICAL PRACTICES THAT ENHANCE SUCCESS.
Leading by Example
BUSINESS ETHICS ALLIANCE’S MICHAEL ROBINSON
In most organizations, employees learn through the example of others. Sometimes the lesson is what not to do, said Michael Robinson, who joined Business Ethics Alliance as executive director and CEO in November 2020. “Having experienced years of unethical practices as an executive, I firmly believe that an organization’s collective goal must be the health and wellbeing of their employees,” Robinson said. “The Business Ethics Alliance was a good fit for me professionally because I truly believe that ethics is a process of values, principles and purpose … It comes down to trust, values and lived experiences. I now have the pleasure of helping organizations make ethical decisions that not only influence the company’s success, but improve employees’ lives and overall engagement.” The Business Ethics Alliance was founded following the Enron scandal, which involved questionable accounting practices resulting in bankruptcy for Enron Corporation, which had a significant Omaha presence, and the demise of accounting firm Arthur Andersen. In 2005, Dr. Beverly Kracher, holder of the Robert B. Daugherty Endowed Chair in Business Ethics & Society at Creighton University’s Heider College of Business, joined forces with Omaha business leaders to discuss local business ethics education. In 2006, the Heider College of Business approved the formal creation of a business ethics group originally called the Greater Omaha Alliance for Business Ethics when it launched in 2008. Kracher led the organization for 12 years before Robinson succeeded her. “The Business Ethics Alliance, the only city-level ethics initiative in the nation, was created through a partnership with the Heider College of Business, Better Business Bureau and the Greater Omaha Chamber of Commerce,” Robinson said. “We are an Omaha-grown, unique ethics-based nonprofit organization that helps businesses create inclusive cultures where the discussion and practice of good business ethics is encouraged and expected.” Robinson said his goals for the organization include training the next generation of leaders, diversifying funding streams, developing channels for the exchange of ideas, helping develop ethical business organizations and creating stronger bonds within the business community. The Business Ethics Alliance has a board of directors chaired by David Mayer of Dvorak Law Group. The alliance also has more than 300 trustee
partner organizations that serve as supporters and advisers; this group is chaired by Union Pacific Railroad President and Chairman Lance Fritz, with Patricia Kearns, president and CEO of QLI, serving as vice chair. “The alliance understands that businesses need help in how to navigate important, complex topics such as the city’s inclusion and diversity initiatives, or potentially controversial current events with their workforce, their customers, and within their community,” Robinson said. “The decisions we make and the actions we take will be determinative for the future of the Greater Omaha business community. We must stand together and create concrete solutions to our city’s ethical challenges.” The organization initially took an academic approach to ethics education, Robinson said. “The alliance evolved by implementing a culture focus, but ethics, integrity and trust will always be a staple of our organization,” he said. “We continue to enhance our services to individuals and organizations by identifying the ethical issues and helping put structures in place to guide decision-making where ethical knowledge is spread amongst all.” Looking ahead, Robinson said the alliance is creating or continuing ethics education products and services along with opportunities for professionals to connect. Some examples include developing web-based platforms; working with businesses to increase staff retention and engagement; offering an emerging leader program for college students; and hosting or supporting industry-specific events, diversity/equity/inclusion ethics training, ethical culture assessments, conversations with CEOs, and ethics training or exchanges for executives, boards and nonprofits. To find out more about becoming involved with the Business Ethics Alliance, community members can visit the organization’s website at businessethicsalliance.org, Robinson said. The alliance also has a podcast, The Business Ethics Podcast, available through Apple Podcasts. “The Business Ethics Alliance has worked with organizations to bring ethics to the center of everyday life, bringing people from all walks of life together to have difficult but meaningful conversations,” he said. “As a notfor-profit, we rely on the support of the community and partners to bring to life our diverse range of events and products and services to life.”

LINCOLN business journal JENNIFER PETERS, COMMUNITY AFFAIRS MANAGER, BLACK HILLS ENERGY
powering beyond 140 YEARS BLACK HILLS ENERGY INVESTS IN INFRASTRUCTURE At 600 employees across its Nebraska and Iowa footprint, Black Hills Energy’s staff size alone rivals many villages in this two-state region; however, this number is just one of many indicators to demonstrate how the nearly 140-year-old diversified energy company and electric and gas utility is growing right alongside our communities. “Black Hills Energy has witnessed significant growth in Sarpy County as new residential communities and business ventures develop,” said Jennifer Peters, community affairs manager in Omaha. “In addition to our business development plans, Black Hills is committed to maintaining the integrity of our main and service lines through rigorous replacement and system upgrade projects across our footprint.” Additionally, at the time of this writing, Peters noted that the corporation is completing gas meter replacement projects in Columbus, with similar projects in the Lincoln area, and central and western Nebraska in 2021 and this year. She also isolated its
partnership with the city of Blair on a major relocation of a main transmission line. Aptly, the company is rooted in South Dakota’s Black Hills Gold Rush. What got its start as Black Hills Electric Light Company of Deadwood, is now a corporation whose Black Hills Energy arm reportedly serves more than 1.3 million natural gas and electric utility customers across a territory that spans eight states and 824 communities. “In 2021, our direct economic impact included charitable giving, compensation for almost 2,900 employees, franchise fees, payments to suppliers, and property, sales and use taxes paid to our communities was $1.9 billion,” Peters said. Black Hills Energy’s 17 offices in Nebraska include its Lincoln headquarters, as well as its operations service center in Papillion, which primarily serves Sarpy County in metro Omaha. Additional field offices are scattered from Beatrice to Chadron, and Norfolk to McCook.

engineering and environmental teams,” explained Bret Atkins, senior human resource manager. “Our service centers, like the Papillion location, are typically comprised of the gas technicians, construction planners, business development, measurement, damage prevention and other professionals.”

In 2020, we announced our sustainability goal of reducing our methane emissions intensity by 50% by 2035 in our natural gas utilities. - JENNIFER PETERS, COMMUNITY AFFAIRS MANAGER, BLACK HILLS ENERGY
In all, across the state, there are upwards of 300,000 customers spanning 319-plus communities. Papillion alone, according to Peters, serves Bellevue, Blair, Gretna, La Vista, Ralston, Plattsmouth, and other areas within the Omaha metro. For comparison, almost 162,000 of our neighbors to the east are served by Black Hills Energy (some 133 communities). Peters isolated Council Bluffs, with 38,000 customers in the city proper, as well as Crescent, Carter Lake, Glenwood, Tabor, Sidney and Hamburg. “Although each field office operates somewhat independently [in] handling service and maintenance locally, there are a number of shared resources both at the state level and from the corporate office in Rapid City, South Dakota,” Atkins added, when asked about how its locations interface. “Corporate branding and digital support, as well as accounts payable/receivable, is managed centrally from the Rapid City office.” “Each state,” Atkins continued, “has one or more representative in government affairs, community affairs, business development and human resources … most of our business units operate from a few select offices overseeing projects statewide.”
Deep roots, bright futures
Black Hills Energy’s roots in Nebraska and Iowa go back to 2008, when its parent company acquired operations formerly owned by Aquila, which itself was a legacy organization founded in Kansas in 1902 as Solomon Valley Mining Co. As referenced by Peters, since that time, she said there have been “significant investments” both in utility infrastructure and in team members supporting its gas utility operations in the area and across its footprint. “In 2019, Black Hills Energy built a natural gas training center in Council
Bluffs, that is a state-of-the-art facility designed to provide technicians with hands-on learning,” she added. Via partnerships with the likes of local community colleges, Atkins further noted it has been able to plan for the more than half of its workforce that has retired over the past decade. “With our local workforce primarily being comprised of utility personnel, we are frequently hiring for technicians with heating and air degrees as well as welders, locators [and] gas operations personnel, including pipeline construction experience,” Atkins said. Aside from creating and supporting jobs, Peters highlighted its partnerships with renewable energy developers to use landfills and wastewater recovery in producing renewable natural gas. “In 2020, we announced our sustainability goal of reducing our methane emissions intensity by 50% by 2035 in our natural gas utilities,” she remarked. “We are making steady progress towards meeting that goal, partially through our continued investments in our infrastructure.” It’s a goal Peters said will be realized through its distribution integrity management plans and programmatic replacement of unprotected pipeline (also improving safety and performance). Peters also referenced Black Hills Energy’s impact via charitable giving – to the tune of $5.3 million last year. She also said nearly one-third of its employees volunteered for a collective 36,000-plus hours of volunteerism. Alongside its support organizations that are aiding local agencies in recovering from the effects of the pandemic, Peters also added that its energy assistance program, Black Hills Cares, was an “essential helping hand.” “As the need increased, so did the giving,” she said. “In 2021, donations increased by 52% for a total of $768,000 … Almost 2,400 families were assisted with their energy needs.” The company matches customers’ and employees’ contributions to Black Hills Cares dollar-for-dollar.

LINCOLN CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
Connecting Tech to Lincoln
SELLING LINCOLN AT THE BIGGEST CONFERENCES AND EVENTS The ability to market Lincoln truly knows no boundaries, as the Lincoln Partnership for Economic Development continues its exploration of Canada to market the city and its offerings. After attending the Collision Conference previously in 2019, LPED maintained a presence at this year’s conference in Toronto. Returning in person for the first time in three years, Collision saw nearly 35,000 people pack the Enercare Centre June 20-23 for what has been called “The Olympics of Tech” by Politico. One of the fastest growing tech conferences in North America saw over 600 featured speakers from Techstars, Wired, Ripple, MIT, Airbnb and many other companies and startups address the large crowds on a variety of topics, ranging from business innovation to cryptocurrency to journalism and virtually everything relating to technology and how it will affect the world’s future. Founders, CEOs and investors provided crash courses in how to kickstart a startup venture, who provided their wisdom and expertise by sharing their stories of failure and success. The ability to network and connect with new groups of people, back in person, proves to be a valuable enterprise when it comes to business expansion and finding out “what’s next” on the horizon for startups and entrepreneurs. “The Collision Conference helps us spread the news about all of the great opportunities that exist for startups and individuals in Lincoln. We receive great feedback and interest about what we are doing, hopefully connecting new people to Lincoln and what they could do here,” says Kaylie Hogan-Schnittker, Director of Talent Strategy. Startup attraction and retention continues to be a primary focus and success story for LPED, with the startup community in Lincoln becoming more diverse than ever before. It’s vital to bring new possibilities to the table and what better place to do it than with 35,000 people that may not be the most familiar with Lincoln. With Toronto remaining one of the hottest tech spots in North

CANDICE PRICE
MIDLANDS BUSINESS JOURNAL
40 under 40
BY DWAIN HEBDA | PHOTOGRAPHY BY DEBRA S. KAPLAN
Leading from the Front CANDICE PRICE GIVES BACK AS MENTOR
CANDICE PRICE, ENTREPRENEUR
Candice Price is the ultimate role model in entrepreneurship: a woman of color who has successfully launched and grown multiple businesses, some in heavily male-dominated fields. “I’ve always liked sales, I’ve always liked selling things since I was a little girl,” she said of her childhood in Florida.
Entrepreneur in Waiting Price knew at a young age that she’d one day own her own business and lead others. “Even when I worked for someone else, I also always worked for myself, as a kid and while in college,” she said. “I always did multiple things at the same time. Getting to the point where I was working solely for myself was something I always wanted to accomplish.” After moving to Omaha, Price found guidance and mentors to match her boundless ambition and her entrepreneurial spirit shifted into high gear. “The greatest thing about Nebraska is access. Everyone is accessible,” she said. “We literally have one degree of separation to anyone you want to talk with, and everyone shares what they know. I think that’s just the greatest thing that we have here in Omaha … our people. My mentors are all right here.” On this strength, Price launched three successful companies, the first being Home Team Auto Sales five years ago. “There’s over 19,000 franchise dealerships in the country; only 219 are Black-owned and less than 1% are Black woman-owned,” she said. In 2019, she followed that with Sapphire Grill, a food truck she deploys to large events including the Nebraska State Fair and the NCAA Men’s College World Series. HT Towing & Repair launched in 2021. She said the most difficult thing for any entrepreneur to learn is business fundamentals, namely the financial side of things.
“Being a small, minority- and woman-owned business owner, it’s all about how to get access to capital, figuring out that part and figuring out the financials overall,” she said. “Typically, you find people know what to do for the business they are in; it’s the business of the business that people struggle with, trying to ask the right questions even when you don’t know what to ask.”
Paying it Back For everything she’s had to learn, the leadership and mentoring aspect has always come naturally. “I make sure I am accessible,” she said. “Weekly, sometimes daily, I receive a message from someone who’s either starting a business or they have a family member starting a business and they want someone to walk them through some things. I do that, and not just for individuals here in Nebraska, but all over. “Outside of work, I do what I can to volunteer in those spaces to make sure people who need someone to talk with get connected to someone to help them grow. That’s always been my thing, being a community connector.” As for the future of her enterprise, Price is as ambitious as ever. The car lot is in the midst of expansion, and she has even bigger dreams on the horizon. “I’d love to be on the Forbes list one day and Black Enterprise 100 list. Those are the goals,” she said. “If you don’t sacrifice for what you want, then what you want becomes the sacrifice. Either way, you’re giving up PRESENTING SPONSOR something; just don’t let it be your dream.”
