We had the good fortune of connecting with Cory Brim and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Cory, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
As I was getting older, I grew tired of working for other people who could FIRE ME but…they couldn’t do my job. As the days went on, it didn’t make sense that I was allowing one person to control my income. I finally decided that I wasn’t going to allow my destiny to be in the hands of other people. I walked away from my job and never looked back.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
I own a Mobile Bartending Company. I think the biggest thing that sets us apart of others is that we provide everything for our clients. Our Mission Statement is “Be A Guest At Your Own Party”. We really want our clients to sit back and relax. Some of our greatest events have been festivals and events of thousands of people. I’m always amazed at how I started this as an idea. This has been the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life. Yet, it’s been the MOST rewarding. I’ve learned that the SAME ENERGY that it takes to close a $10 deal is the SAME ENERGY needed to close a $100,000 deal. I want to show other Entrepreneurs just how far you can take your dream!

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
We would definitely eat! Kitchen Kray is one of my favorite restaurants. I live in the DC Metro area and we are known for Brunch. We also have some great views by the water along The National Harbor and George Washington Pkwy.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
There are so many people that I can thank. Erica Haynes of Enchanting Events is one of those people that has seen my growth right from the start!
