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

Hi Devontay, do you have any habits that you feel contribute to your effectiveness?
Consistency, investing, promoting, and networking are all habits I had that I feel contributed to my success.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I shoot, edit, and direct hiphop music videos. Getting started was not easy as this is a competitive field. Talking to people face to face with projects I can show on my phone helped recruit some clients. The rest of it was more of referral type of system….My clients friends, family, and associates are the type of people that inquire. Word of mouth is not to be underestimated.

One lesson I learned is that I can’t take friends not hiring me as personal. The business world is a complete different approach when dealing with people.

The world should know that I came from being poor with no resources to start so I had the most humble start.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My mom and pops.

Without their help I would be where I am today.
