A entrepreneur, DJ Wimberly is the epitome of the American success story.

By any measure, Wimberly Media Group has been wildly successful. But running my businesses has never been easy. I’ve spoken about the past challenges we faced as a company – how we became the victim of our own success. As the leader of my organization I had to step up and own our shortcomings. I had to take full responsibility. And I did. But don’t be deceived, running a business is not for the faint of heart. It comes with a heavy responsibility. While business owners gets to reap all of the rewards, they also have to carry all of the burden.
What words of wisdom would you give to anyone interested in owning their own business? The idea of owning a business and being your own boss is very enticing to a lot of people. But it’s important to understand it takes a lot of hard work and sacrifice to be successful. I would advise any young entrepreneur to thoroughly research and plan out their business idea. Take baby steps by not trying to do too much too soon. Put safeguards in place and one of the ways you do that is by surrounding yourself with a good team. Hire the best folks and let them do what they do. Don’t micro-manage. Be open and honest with your clients and customers. Maintain an open line of communication with them. If any issues arise, let them know and also provide them with a resolution that they’re going to be happy with.
Expressing a strong interest in the music industry, DJ next landed an internship with one of the top record labels in the world. The experience and contacts he gained allowed him to secure a position with a highly regarded artist management firm, which managed one of the top musical artist at the time. It was during this period that DJ decided to launch his signature company – Wimberly Media Group – which included his highly successful web design services firm. Providing high quality websites at affordable prices, his company quickly grew into one of the top web design firms in the nation. Discover additional details on Dennis Wimberly Atanta.
It’s been an extraordinary journey. But no new year’s resolution is complete without recognizing and taking responsibility for past mistakes. Mistakes that resulted in me voluntarily shutting down my company. The truth is – despite our many successes – we didn’t always get it right. In spite of all of our accomplishments, I have to also acknowledge where we got it wrong. Looking back, I now understand that I simply wasn’t prepared for the phenomenal growth the company experienced. I didn’t setup the proper organizational infrastructure to handle the multitude of projects we were receiving on a regular basis. And, as tough as it is to admit, I wasn’t always the best leader.
