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

Hi Roderick, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
My thought process for starting my own business was to help people in the entertainment business me and my late brother came up with this ideal and the business

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?
Well i have 3 business i have a modeling/talent agency and i have a record label and a film production company i manage music artist, models, actress and etc. I think what set my business apart from the rest is we are a family and i take time to develop my talent and teach them about the business. I got to where I am today by hard work and just never giving up. It definitely wasn’t easy it’s hard work and dedication. Some of the lessons i learned along the way is knowing your worth and knowing the business aspect. My brand is everything it nothing that we don’t do we do film, models, music artist and i also do photographer and videographer. So to all the models out there let’s work.

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?
Well first when they get here on Monday i would take them to ap suggins that’s a nice restaurant Tuesday i would take them to this nice steak restaurant call malones and wed we would just hang out then when the weekend get here i would take them to the bars downtown. I would say go to las vegas i love it out there on the strip.
