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

Hi Patrice, is there a quote or affirmation that’s meaningful to you?
One of my favorite scriptures is Hosea 4:6, which says “my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge.” This verse reflects the reason why I have a business. My purpose is to educate people in any context where I am involved. Many individuals fail to pursue their goals or business ideas due to a lack of knowledge on how to achieve them. Similarly, many businesses fail because they may not have the knowledge of how to operate successfully. My goal is to provide this knowledge in a business context.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
My business, Patrice’s Perspective, has two main focuses. One is helping small businesses start and grow, and the other is helping small businesses succeed on social media. I have always been passionate about sharing information, and I believe that social media is crucial for educating people. What sets me apart from other businesses is that I see entrepreneurship as a way to spread knowledge about any industry a business is in. It’s a way to generate profit, but as a business owner, you are also an industry expert in whatever product or service you offer. For example, if your business is a hair care line, you are likely the best person to educate people on how to care for their hair, what products do more harm than good, and so on. My business helps me to show entrepreneurs the value that information has.

I’m currently transitioning into a more consulting role when it comes to social media management and business development. If you are interested in any of those areas, you can contact me on Instagram @patrices.perspectve

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?
