About Hustlers University

Hustlers University (website: www.HustlersU.com (http://www.HustlersU.com)) is a podcast that blends street upbringing with corporate success and is focused on entrepreneurship and telling the stories of people that are making waves, disrupting and serving their communities. Hosted by “The Tattooed CEO” Daymain Smith, HustlersU is the definition of “the Art of Storytelling” that highlights the stories of dynamic individuals. Smith, no stranger to “Getting it out of the Mud” has built an empire in commercial real estate, hotel ownership, hotel management, and commercial lending serves as the guide through the streets of the inner cities of America! Sharing his personal story of struggle, the streets and shaking up societal norms by proudly wearing his tattoos as he has spoken in multiple arenas, from college campuses to the Headquarters of Fortune 500 companies, Smiths’ southern charm, quick-wit and dynamic takes on life, hustling and overcoming personal demons despite the distractions of growing up in the inner city of Mobile Alabama, this is a podcast with moxy and grit. We will remove the barriers, break the chains and build new confidence in men and women by expounding on this one truth in life, “How You Begin, is now Always How You Will End”. The color inspirations are Black, White and Old Gold and the name: Hustlers U. Or Hustlers University should reflect as a symbol of the got of the streets and the polish of formal education with a flair of Southern Storytelling. The lettering should be bold and stand out like Black Excellence in a boardroom. Popping with smooth sophisticated style, but have some edge to it that makes people nod their heads when they see it. Classic, Outspoken, and Polished, but with Gucci Sneakers on.
