Speech Topics
Recreating Black Wall Street
What do Silicon Valley and Tulsa, Oklahoma have in common? More than you could ever imagine. Over the past hundred years, both have been home to entrepreneurial millionaires. And though comparatively fewer have heard about The Greenwood District in Tulsa, otherwise known as "Black Wall Street;" Frasier shows how the fabric of this once vibrant ecosystem laid the groundwork for innovation and growth all over the U.S.
You Can't Microwave Success
Today's millennials and young entrepreneurs are conditioned to want success fast. Social media and television create a false representation of the time it takes to really achieve their goals. Frasier lays down simple actionable ways young people can become more patient with their goals by using his own experiences and pop culture references.
Networking 101: How to Leave a Lasting Impression
Networking today goes beyond just the business card. TO be a connector you have to become a person of value. Anthony gives aspiring business students and entrepreneurs a talk filled with actionable tips they can use today to build connections that will last forever.
Building a Profitable Online Brand
After successfully generating online brands such as The Phat Startup and The Koalition, Anthony outlines the step by step process he's learned to stay ahead of the competition in the new digital landscape. Using a simple formula Anthony breaks down how he was able to create six-figure brands using content marketing and how to translate that influence offline.
How to pitch your startup to investors
The money and the deals usually happen in "Phase 2" (investor vibes with idea, meetings happen, checks get cut). The problem is, nobody ever gets a chance to get to that phase because their "phase 1" is terrible. Phase 1 is your pitch. Unless you have a great product already making waves of traction, you will have to communicate what it is your building to people, and why it’s worth their time and money. So we are solving that problem.
How to get into the tech industry without coding
By the year 2020 most jobs will exist in the tech industry. Learn about the different jobs in tech that are available without needing to know code. Anthony will use his personal journey in tech to show actionable steps on how to break in the tech startup world.
Building an online brand from scratch
After building two notable, highly publicized profitable online brands with gaming site TheKoalition.com and The Phat Startup, Anthony will show attendees how to craft an online brand with minimal resources and no experience.
What Entrepreneurs can learn from The Black Wall Street
What do Silicon Valley and Tulsa, Oklahoma have in common? More than you could ever imagine. Over the past one hundred years both have been home to entrepreneurial multi-millionaires. And though comparatively fewer have heard about The Greenwood District in Tulsa, otherwise known as “Black Wall Street;” Anthony Frasier showcases how the fabric of this once vibrant ecosystem laid the groundwork for innovation and growth all over the United States.
