Play Your Position with Mary Lou Kayser

At the end of our conversation, I asked Albert Williams who or what is he watching on Sunday. Who is his favorite team?

 

“Well, my daughter is a Girl Scout, so this Sunday is all about selling cookies!” he laughed.

 

I asked him which kind are his favorite.

 

Without hesitation he said, “Samoas.”

 

I smiled. “Ya, it’s hard to beat that coconut chocolate caramel goodness. But I have to say -- I’m a Thin Mint girl myself.”

 

And so it goes with today’s PYP MVP Albert Williams. A million-dollar business owner, podcaster, father and Girl Scout cookie connoisseur. You will quickly discover how warm, genuine and authentic he is and I just know you will love today’s conversation on PYP.

 

Albert Williams Player Stats:

 

Born in Kingston, Jamaica to a single mother, Albert Williams grew up in the birthplace of Hip Hop and the home of the NY Yankees - the Bronx. Motivated by the countless hours his mother worked to create a better life for him and his siblings, Albert grew up to hold several jobs in both the public and private sectors while all at the same time owning and operating several of his own businesses. His entrepreneurial spirit led him to explore many avenues including landscaper/snow removal, restaurant menu designer and printer, computer consultant, barbershop owner, part time owner in a laundromat and part time owner in a hair salon.

 


In June 2012, Albert acquired Best Deal Private Car Service Inc., based in the North East Bronx with 19 owner-operated cars in its fleet. As President and CEO, he went on to certify the business as a Minority Business Enterprise, increased the company’s revenue to top $1.5 million, added hundreds of new drivers and created a new revenue stream by adding non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) to their line of services.

 


This serial entrepreneur with a proven ability to grow a business now teaches others through his Mastermind coaching. Albert considers it his responsibility to give back, coaching minorities with entrepreneurial aspirations to realize their dreams.

 


Albert also hosts the Plan Build Become podcast, interviewing inspiring thought leaders to further help his own minority communities.
