Shamus Goss is a successful entrepreneur whose career spans over 25 years. Thanks to his drive to succeed and his creativity, he's launched businesses in a wide range of industries over the years.
But how does Shamus keep motivated after all of this time in the entrepreneurial world? He attributes his success to reading and constant self-improvement. Reading over 50 books a year, so about one book a week, Shamus is always looking to increase his knowledge and creativity and to learn from the masters in the industry. On top of that, he's set to release his memoir "Better with Time" and a documentary later this year.
In the ever-changing business world, complacency won't help you keep up with the competition. Launching a business in one industry can be challenging enough, let alone spanning multiple fields as Shamus does.
Growing up in the Bronx, Shamus began his education there before relocating to Spring Valley, NY. Here he lived with his older sister before entering the music industry at the age of just 17. From a young age, Shamus was passionate about learning and pushing himself to his full potential, which is why he started an independent record label. During this time, he learned what it takes to succeed in any industry and how to turn his ideas and creativity into a profit. His dedication and knowledge soon paid off, as his first single entered into the Billboard top 10.
Shamus knows that the lessons you learn in one book or one industry can be applied to anything you work on. In 2002, he switched from music to athletic apparel, generating seven figures for his new company. Expanding both internationally and online with his team apparel company, he took the lessons he'd learned in the music industry and applied them to his new venture.
For serial entrepreneurs around the world, innovation, creativity, and knowledge help to pave the way to success. Shamus now has a portfolio of diverse businesses, all of which help to educate and assist people through innovation. For anyone who is entering into the business world, Shamus is a source of inspiration and someone you'll love reading about in his memoir later this year. As Shamus knows so well, reading about others who've carved a path for themselves helps to motivate you every day as you follow your own entrepreneurial journey.
Shamus knows that we often take our blessings in life for granted, as it's so easy to complain about our current circumstances. This understanding led to the creation of the H.E.L.P Foundation, which acts as a way for him to give back to his local community in Atlanta. Shamus believes that at every moment in life, we have the chance to help someone else. H.E.L.P. is a non-profit organization offering Atlanta's homeless community food and clothing. Like many other successful entrepreneurs he read about in the past, Shamus is grateful to now have the opportunity to give back and help others after the success he's enjoyed.
While you might think that venture would keep Shamus busy enough, you'll be excited to learn Shamus runs multiple other organizations. Magneto Home Solutions, a real estate investment firm focused on Fix & Flips and new construction. Magneto provides solutions for homeowners looking to buy or sell their home. Shamus understands this industry can be very overwhelming for anyone considering investing for the first time but hopes to educate and inspire individuals to improve their lives through this route.
On top of that, Major Change Media is a digital marketing agency that assists brands in building their online presence. With the business world today focusing on innovation and online communities, Major Change Media strives to assist others to achieve their best. Shamus also founded Ecom Titan Pro's, which is an e-commerce consulting firm. For anyone looking to generate a passive income, his seven years of experience can help individuals enter this fast-growing industry.
With such a diverse portfolio of businesses, it's no surprise Shamus is passionate about continuous education and self-improvement. Reading has helped Shamus expand his knowledge over the years and increased his chances of succeeding as he enters new industries.
With over 25 years of success as an entrepreneur, Shamus is still continuing to learn and is now passionate about sharing his creativity and knowledge with young aspiring entrepreneurs. Look out for his memoir "Better with Time" when it's released later this year, to learn more about what it takes to succeed as an entrepreneur in today's fast-paced and ever-changing world.
