Meet Devoe Sherman | Business Coach

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

Hi Devoe, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
Devoe Sherman’s decision to embark on the entrepreneurial path was driven by a multifaceted thought process rooted in personal aspirations and valuable mentorship. In 2015, the spark of entrepreneurship ignited within him, fueled by a profound desire to be his own boss. This innate drive for independence was further honed and shaped by a serendipitous encounter with a seasoned 30-year veteran in the business industry.

Under the guidance of this mentor, Devoe delved into the intricate landscape of entrepreneurship, gaining not only practical knowledge but also invaluable wisdom. The mentor imparted insights into the nuanced world of business, shedding light on both the rewards and challenges that lay ahead. Armed with this newfound understanding, Devoe learned to navigate complexities such as the tax code and discovered the potential for substantial financial gains with efficient time management.

His thought process evolved into a strategic blend of self-determination and mentor-guided wisdom. Recognizing the significance of being his own boss, Devoe sought to empower others with the same knowledge that had propelled him into entrepreneurship. By sharing his experiences, he aimed to equip aspiring individuals with the tools to navigate the intricacies of starting a business, fostering a community of informed and inspired entrepreneurs. Devoe’s thought process, therefore, became a dynamic interplay of personal ambition, mentorship, and a commitment to imparting knowledge for the benefit of others in their entrepreneurial journeys.
