BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT Triple C’s
TRIPLE C’S
Can you tell us a little about yourself?
Advertisement
I’m originally from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. I moved to Rochester New York in 2013 to pursue higher education. Four years later, I graduated with a business degree in 2018. I had a very successful eleven-year career in higher education as a senior admissions advisor and assistant director of admissions before I made the decision to walk away from it to pursue the vision God gave me seven years ago. The vision led to me forming Triple C’s Commercial and Residential Services, LLC in 2017. I officially launched my business June 15th of 2019. A year and two months later I’m extremely humbled and thankful for all the doors God continues to open for me and Triple C’s. I’m excited about the future and doing everything I can to keep making a positive impact in the community.
How did you first get involved in your line of business?
Honestly, I had experience with exterior/ interior painting and landscaping but many of the services I now provide I had no previous experience in. I just followed the vision God gave me and in a matter of time he provided me with an experienced team of skilled workers to help everything I envisioned come to life. A little over a year in business and we are over 150 clients servicing Western New York.
What are 3 lessons you’ve learned as a businessman that you can teach a businessman that is just starting out?
The first lesson that I would say is to believe in yourself, dreams, and vison even when others don’t. People will often try to place their limitations on you so it’s essential to stand firm on your beliefs when it comes to chasing your dreams. You can’t let the opinions of others allow you to bend, fold, break or get discouraged in any form. The second lesson I would encourage a businessman just starting out is to embrace failure, mistakes, and learning along the way. Running a successful business is not easy so I feel it’s important to not beat yourself up or get down when things don’t go as planned. Understand it’s normal and all part of the process. This last lesson I would encourage someone just starting out is extremely critical and it’s knowing your Target Market. Once I learned this everything in my business changed immediately. I’d tell them to know your target market because when you do it’s powerful for any business owner and company.
Out of all your goals for 2020, what is one you haven’t accomplished yet but are working towards?
I’m a bibliophile so a goal of mine was to read at least 10 books this year. Business has tripled for Triple C’s this summer so I haven’t come close to reaching that goal but every chance I get I’m somewhere enjoying a good book. I’m currently reading Leading At A Higher Level by Ken Blanchard.

Where do you see yourself and business in 5 years?
I see Triple C’s easily being one of the most respected and well known businesses in Western New York. I’ve already started working on a second business that will launch in 2021 or 2022 that I’m pretty excited about as well. I will have my own trade/ mentoring program for young black men in the community teaching work ethics, skills, discipline, and various types of etiquette. I’m passionate about our youth and using my life experiences to help those who grew up without a father figure in the home like myself. I believe in each one teach one. If I’m able to be a blessing to one kid then my efforts were more than worth it.
What is your number one source of motivation?
My mother and my identical twin daughters absolutely mean the world to me so they have and will always be my number one motivation. Legacy is something I’m passionate about and I have already broken the generational curse in my family in a number of ways so being able to leave them something that was built strictly off my grind and hustle means more to me than words can ever express.
