We had the good fortune of connecting with Celina Farquhar Maniece and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Celina, we’d love to hear more about your end-goal, professionally.
What is the end goal? To enhance humanity by making BizClips the Uber of Marketing.

Where do you want to be professionally by the end of your career?

To have BizClips positioned within the same bracket as today’s most popular social media apps.

Social Media Explained:

Facebook: I Like Your Pizza.
Twitter: I’m Eating A Pizza.
LinkedIN: My Skills Include Pizza Eating.
YouTube: Watch Me Eating A Pizza.
Instagram: Here’s A Vintage Photo of My
Pizza.
Pinterest: Here’s A Pizza Recipe.

And Now….

BizClips: I’ll Promote Your Pizza.
(I’ll Visually Streamline Your Hiring Process &
Sales).

What should our readers know about your business?
BizClips is a revolutionary video-based social media app. We strive to connect users all around the world. We’ve made social networking & user driven authentic marketing practical, very easy and effective. With 80% of the U.S being built on entrepreneurship the centralization, technology & convenience BizClips provides will be welcomed with a highly utilized presence. Especially by those interested in gaining exposure, connections, traffic, sells & streamlining their hiring practices.

Being an emerging social media app it’s definitely not easy. The easiest way I have overcome some challenges was through determination, hard work, perseverance and long hours. More importantly prayer & my faith in God!

Through this process I have learned everyone won’t see nor understand your vision. It doesn’t mean to throw the towel in because the vision was given to you specifically.  You have to remember… “You’re building: There’s no such thing as overnight success!  You can’t expect 5 year results from a 1 day initiative. Things take time!”

I am a hard working creative who has a passion for helping others achieve success.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
There’s so much to do here in Atlanta but some places would be Chateau Elan Winery & Resort, Le Bilboquet, the Beltline, Apt 4b, Gypsy kitchen, AG within the Ritz-Carlton, Ray’s on the River, Pasha ATL, Seven Lamps ATL, Murphy’s, Brasstown Valley Resort & Spa up in the mountains to go horseback riding or Shady Acres Horse Farm. Whatever you’re into Atlanta has it.  There’s something here for everyone.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My parents were influential in raising me to always follow my dreams. This has resulted in the latest news that BizClips officially received its patent. Along the way, life introduced me to some prominent and very supportive people, mentors and business leaders. The list is so extensive I’m reluctant to mention specific names for fear of leaving someone out. To highlight a few prominent individuals & businesses that have contributed to my success have been my alma mater, Southern Illinois University, development team Zoondia, Norma Rodriguez and Michael Gonzalez with The Small Business Administation in Texas & Robyn Laur Russell in Illinois. The Texas Workforce Solutions with Rogelio Trevino provided additional support with the BizClips app utilization and translation support with Univision, Telemundo, Fox & KGNS news along with Lorena Rodriguez Rivera, Avanti Models, Victoria Valdez & Teresa Ramirez.

As BizClips continued to progress & developed a marketing strategy through the Day In The Life of Pursuing Your Dreams designed to promote & feature entrepreneurs, graphic designer Carl ArtKing James, celebrity hair, wardrobe & makeup stylists Tomica Latrice, Stacey Lynn & Brittany Mac came on board to help showcase the hustle & bustle that takes place behind the scenes all while prepping me and the features for our interviews. The production crew of TC Productions and Jenet Kiefer Films were  instrumental in capturing our interviews, behind the scenes and the journey. Within the Day In The Life of Pursuing Your Dreams we were fortunate to be able to feature the following individuals:
