Brian Waldron

My mom had just got a house in Queens and, she was, you know, real titled with the house and things like that, but she was also running a smaller location here in Brooklyn. So I'm just saying, Hey, you know, while you're busy, I can go and operate the small space. Cause people would come by and it was like a little community room type of thing and people be like, Hey, you do have like a little kids party or whatever the case would be. And she was just like, yeah, sure. So. I started to run it for her and I'm seeing the whole game. Mind you, I'm a server working all day on my feet for like $200 a night. People are paying five, $600 for a couple of hours at a venue. You don't need to have to be there. This open and close. So eventually I'm just like, yo, you know what, I'm going to get my own.

Anne-Lyse Wealth

Welcome to The Dreamers Podcast I'm Anne-Lyse wealth. And I'm so glad that you're here for today's episode with Brian Waldron. Brian Waldron is an entrepreneur 26 years old. He started an event space four years ago, and he's been able to build it into a seven figure business. He has multiple locations and he's been able to use his income from the events space to build wealth for the future. So today he talks to usabout w hy we should consider event space as a source of income. What's so great about that business and how he's been able to turning his company into a seven figure business in four years. So here's Brian Waldron.Brian Waldron. Welcome to The Dreamers Podcast. 

Brian Waldron

What's going on? Yeah, I'm happy to be here. You guys. What's going on. 

Anne-Lyse Wealth

 So can you tell dreamers a little bit about you and what you do. 

Brian Waldron

My name is Brian Waldron, AKA Brian, K N on Instagram. an event space owner. We've got about seven locations strung throughout Brooklyn and the Bronx here in New York city.

Brian Waldron

 I've been doing it about four years and I've been blessed to be able to do a couple million off this game. So I'm definitely here to just share some game, share some wealth and just, you share some positivity. 

Anne-Lyse Wealth

 Well, we can't wait to learn more from you. So how did you get started in the event space?

 Brian Waldron

So it's a funny story actually. Uh, I used to be a bar back, like working behind the bar, at an Italian restaurant because out of school I was just trying to make money fast. So I was just like, look, you know, I go to an Italian restaurant, that's cash every day. I could go do that. So I start off making like $350 a week and always had that millionaire mindset. So I'm just like, yo, there's more to be made out here. I'm seeing the servers making like a thousand, $1,200 a week . Ask my manager, if I could get that server position, they're just like, no so I'm just, I, I'm going to put things into my own hands. Around that same time. I applied at another restaurant nearby and unfortunately I have to take the bus like three hours to get to work, so I got another job at this other Italian restaurant and they gave me the position of server.And they gave me the position. And before I know it, like I just started picking up on it really good. And I'm making like 12, $1,400 a week I'm at, around this time. I'm like 22, just finished college. So also around the same time we had just moved back to Queens.

Brian Waldron 

My mom had just got a house in Queens and, she was, you know, real titled with the house and things like that, but she was also running a smaller location here in Brooklyn. So I'm just saying, Hey, you know, while you're busy, I can go and operate the small space. Cause people would come by and it was like a little community room type of thing.

Brian Waldron

And people be like, Hey, you do have like a little kids party or whatever the case would be. And she was just like, yeah, sure. So. I started to run it for her and I'm seeing the whole game. Mind you, I'm a server working all day on my feet for like $200 a night.

Brian Waldron

People are paying five, $600 for a couple of hours at a venue. You don't need to have to be there. This open and close. So eventually I'm just like, yo, you know what, I'm going to get my own. So I'm staying a home at the time. I'm just stacking my bread stack and working six, seven shifts a week at the Italian restaurant stacking, stacking, and eventually after a year I save up $30,000.

Brian Waldron

And I'm just say, I can get my own space. Cool. So I started looking at my own space. Look at one, look at two. And then by the third one, I'm just like, this is the one, it was right here on Fulton street in Brooklyn. For anybody shout out online, New York people,was about 2300 square feet. I still have it to this day, 1542 Fulton street. I put my entire life savings into the spot. Cause at that time, nobody's teaching about this stuff. I'm just figuring it out as I go. So I get my first spot. I dump my entire life savings into it.

Brian Waldron

I'm like, I gotta make some money. I got rent and doing the first. That's when I first started playing around with Instagram ads and promo just really kind of get my name out there and things like that. Well, my name and my company mannequin out there, and I'm just like, yo, what's going on guys? My name is Brian Waldron. I'm 22 year old entrepreneur. we got this package going on, get the venue, get the chair, get a table for it was like eight, $900 or something like that but people started coming through the door, let me say 800 to 900 the night, including a chair and including a table. It it was wild. do something like that now, but you have to do what you gotta do. so that same week I made $4,000. Mind you, it would take me like a month to meet that kind of money before what I do at that point is I started developing more inventory. I started getting bigger and bigger packages. Let me add some tablecloths. Let me add this. Let me add that to the point where , it's like a full service, all you need right here in one spot, one stop shop type of thing.So eventually I make $10,000 in a month, $15,000 a month, $20,000 in a month. And so I eventually get my third location, Ashford, a new lots, right here in Berlin. So now I have my third location. Now we're doing like 40, $50,000 a month.So we started doing like 40, $50,000 in a month . We get two more locations right here in Brooklyn. July 20, 21. And then we started having a hundred thousand dollars months. 90,008,000, a hundred thousand dollars a month. And it's just been up since then. So we just recently acquired two more spaces in the Bronx and we're in the process of purchasing a building in Philadelphia to get into another location. So it's been a very tumultuous journey, but rewarding all the same. So wouldn't have it any other way. 

Anne-Lyse Wealth

So, before we get into, you making, Six figures a month, with your event spaces. Can you talk to me a little bit more about even the process? So when you get that first space, did you buy it? Did you rent it? how did that go?

Brian Waldron

So a lot of people think they actually have to buy the building. So what we did is we just leased it out. We just paid rent. So we'd find a space. we'd run a market comp analysis, which is something that I teach all my students.We see kind of what's going on in the area, like the average rent, the average selling price, and then we determined like, all right, cool. Hey, is that I, I didn't know any of this at the time, but just kind of like in hindsight, now this is what we do. But at that time, yeah, we just found a realtor, found a good spot, negotiated the rent and negotiated a rent concession, which is free rent. that's just another point that anybody who wants to get into the game always make sure that you're trying to get some free rent. The landlord will either A, do some of the renovations for you, or B, they will give you time to do it yourself. They'll give you two months rent concession three months rent position, which is just free rent. Like for example, on the Bronx location that I just got, I have three months free rent. I have a five-year lease, but three months free rent. You just lease out the space and you to start building it out. But I always recommend getting at least like a five-year lease because you don't want to put in all this money, all this infrastructure, and you've gotta be out in a year like this, not like, an apartment so that's how you getting done.

Anne-Lyse Wealth

And so what are some of the other ways that you spent that money that you had, besides just renting the space, there's more expenses involved, right?  

Brian Waldron

Absolutely. Yeah. So if you want to be exact breakdown for that original location Fulton, we put about $40,000 in, so it was $11,000 to acquire the space, which was the security, the move in costs all the numbers are, this is like a case study. Like these are the exact number. For that specific space, but I have mentees. I have students who took my knowledge and they got better deals, or they got more money or whatever the case may be, but this is just a case study on exactly how we did it. So it was $11,000 to acquire the space. The flooring that we did was about $16,000. So now that's what, 27,000, The paint and everything, maybe like another two grand that's 29,000, furniture, tables and chairs. It's like four grand. So that's 33,000 and then to do the lighting and everything was like another 5,000.

So that's 38,000 and then we got like, you know, like some light sheet rock, bar tables, things like that was another 1500, 2009.

Anne-Lyse Wealth

So you're 22 years old, you've dumped $40,000 on this event space. How did you know that? 

Brian Waldron

I didn't, was just all in, and that was one of the biggest things that I got to tell people when your back is against the wall and you bring that bridge, you ain't got no choice, but to me it could work.I just, at that point, I just, believe in myself more than anything, you sometimes you just got to really just bet on yourself and be like, all right, cool, look, listen. It's, it's got to work or it's got to work. If it don't then, you I'm back at the restaurant, things like that. It was a good deal, but I'm betting on myself at the end day, that's going to work. And whenever I put that gear switch on my mind, Yo, I'm all in on this. I'm not half stepping. I'm really all into this thing. it's, full-blown, once you bet on yourself, it's a different type of grind. A hundred percent.

Anne-Lyse Wealth

So when you have an event space, do you just rent it out or do you also organize, 

Brian Waldron 

My company, we don't organize events. Like we don't do our own events, we just rent out the space, but we also do provide certain add-ons like, decor. it's so funny we're experimenting with a new package right now where it's like, full day core cake treats, but we're also going to include like soft drinks ice, really make it like a no brainer for the client. And for, they could just come in. Add, whatever little knickknacks they want to add, and then that's it. They're good to go. 

Anne-Lyse Wealth

Got it. And so when you first started, so you have quit your job, or you were kind of managing that and the job. 

Brian Waldron

So that's a great question. I actually got fired. So at the beginning the first, if I want to give you the exact timestamps, So I started October. I want say 2017, October, 2017. I started at that restaurant and I got fired August, 2018. . It was maybe about four months. And then I got fired but at that time it was interesting because the thing about it is like, around this time I had my third location. I was just like, you know, I'm gonna just be all in, on the business at this point. Like I, wasn't going to try to for another job. Actually I did try to get my job back, but I didn't go. I was just like, you know, whatever, like I'm really just go hard on the business and then it worked out so beautifully worked out so perfectly because the thing about it now that I'm a hundred percent dedicated to this business through this being, there's no excuses, there's it's full foot on the gas.Take it all the way through. And I feel like a lot of times people, especially when we're half step in, it's really hard to see results. Because the thing about it is that you got that backup plan. Once you have that backup plan, you're not going to go as hard. You're not going to go as hard, but when you know, like, all right, cool. I got kids to feed. I got a family to take care of, or that you got something that really behind you is I need for example, me personally, like I pay my mom's mortgage now, I don't have kids myself, but like, I pay my mortgage now. So it's just like, I can't fail. I can't because I have other people riding on this. I have other people riding on me betting on me. So when I take things to another level, I really want people to understand it's personal to me because I have a family to take care of.I got bills and stuff to take care of. Like, I can't stop. can't stop. So when people see us do a hundred thousand, $200,300,000 in a month, it's not competition with anybody else, but me, was just me taking things and it's almost like a double-edged sword , like I was talking to my mom the other day about it. She's like, you push yourself a little too hard I'm just wired that way. And honestly, it's not the greatest thing. This is just transparency moment.It's not the greatest thing, but it keeps me on my toes. It keeps me always striving for another little. It makes me make some dumb mistakes as well, but it always just keeps me pushing to like the next level, you how can we get to the next level? So it's a blessing and a curse, but it's a blessing first. 

Anne-Lyse Wealth

What did you go to school for? 

Brian Waldron

Went to Baruch college for real estate investments, minor in communications.

Anne-Lyse Wealth

So when you went to college, did you always want to be an entrepreneur? 

Brian Waldron

I want it to be an entrepreneur since I was a kid, it's so funny. My first taste of money, I remember it was like, it was yesterday is, I don't know if you're familiar with and Pokemon it's trading card games.  Yeah, there you go. So when I was in middle school, I used to play 'Yu-Gi-Oh!' cards. And I remember I was on the bus one day. I was in like the seventh grade. So I was around 12, the sixth grader. And who's in the seat right in front of me. He's just like, yo, that's a blue eyes, white dragon but all my anime people know what it is, but it's basically like a really powerful card, right? Oh, at least at the time, I don't know what it is like now, but, at that time it's like a popular card and he's like, I'll give you $20 for it. So to a 12 year old, it's $20. Well, we're talking 14 years ago is like a hundred dollars now, you maybe even like a thousand dollars now was just like give me that. And then literally I had the rest of my cards and he was like, yo, I'll take that one. I'll take that one. I made $60 on the bus that same day in the matter of minutes. Like that was my first taste of money. And then the next day I brought my other cards and I'm making like a hundred dollars a day just selling cards.

And then eventually, competition steps in other kids. See, I'm making money with cards. They start bringing their cards. And then whatI see some other kids selling candy. I started selling candy, then I started getting into selling sneakers. The entrepreneurial bug was just always in me, always on me. So when I got fired, I was just like, literally all I needed to just shoot off.

Anne-Lyse Wealth

Earlier, you said, you when you don't have a plan B, right. You can totally focus on this plan A, and make sure that you can make it work. But you were also 22 when you get started. No, kids and all that stuff. So not everyone is able to just jump. So would you say this is a good business to consider as a side hustle?

Brian Waldron

A hundred percent and truthfully, that's the method I teach. So whenever I teach somebody it's about getting to event space, I always show you how to complete automate the entire process. Right? This is how you do it without having to work for this is how you set it up. Like, literally we just started a mentorship program where we're literally doing everything for our clients.

Brian Waldron

We're getting the spaces for them, negotiating it for them. we're marketing it for them, getting it up to a certain point where it's just like, alright, cool hand handed off to you. It's done. Forget the getting fired part. When I started, I was still wrapping up my degree when I had that first place, I was wrapping up my degree. It was last semester in college and it was working and it was possible, yeah, I didn't have any kids or a family to take care of, but I had obligations, you I had schoolwork to take care of. I had, chores at home, things like that. I had a job. So it's definitely possible once situate it the right way.And the good thing about it is that, it's a need based business. The event space business is a need based business. So like you're almost guaranteed to get bookings the same way. People love to travel. People love to. and it's more so than loving the party. It's like, all right, cool. If you're having a child, you got to have a baby shower, you you're turning 30, 40, you know, these milestone ages. You want to have a birthday party. Oh, you have a kid. You want to have a kid's birthday party, things like that. So it's definitely a need based business, but everything that I teach is, this is how you systemize it. This is how you automate it. I work less than two hours a week in my event, space business, less than two hours less. Because the thing about it, we have a whole entire system. We have over 17 employees. We have an entire backend where like, literally they're talking right. we use slack to communicate. We have all these different threads. Like these are news and announcements.This is admin. This is payroll. This is scheduling where everything's broken down where, my biggest thing, truthfully, know how McDonald's is a burger company, but the business is really real estate. I have an events based company, but my skill is really automation and delegation. So my biggest thing is like, I don't ever start a business or I don't ever set something up I give myself another job. I always set it up in a way where other people can take care of it. So I have literally like a web of different employees and things like that in my events based business, in my Airbnb business and my real estate, whatever the case may be so that every single task can be taken care of without having to come through me.And whenever I feel like something has to come through me too long, you have what you call it, a bottleneck and the bottleneck needs to be immediately. rectified, we have to find a system. So it doesn't happen.So nobody has to wait for.

Anne-Lyse Wealth

And so how profitable is the event space business? Yeah, so we averaged about an 83% profit margin, because if you think about it, it's like the only expenses is rent and cleaning. That's it? That's like a base model ours is a little bit more complicated, Obviously to make it a hundred percent if somebody who's just coming into the game, I don't recommend you automating all the way. And I teach my students the same thing simply because like, I want you to really learn the business. before you automate anything, you should learn a process, a hundred percent or else, how can you really automate something or teach something that you don't know yourself? So I always teach my students, like one of my mentees, she just said, oh, I want to get a VA. I want to get a B I'm just like, slow your roll, learn the business, the ins and outs. And then we can talk about a VA VA's virtual. But when I talk about uh, the profitability and things like that, my profit margins are, they're still around that much, but they're a tiny little bit less than other peoples simply because I have more staff. To make this whole thing automated. I have to have more staff. If I'm not doing something, somebody else obviously has to do it. I have events attended and plus I have multiple locations, so that's a little bit different. So if I only had one location or if my locations are only just the space, that'd be a different situation. But now it's like, since we have, different add ons, you know, chafing dishes, sound system security. We need somebody there. We we just need a little bit more of a backend. So that's the only reason why profitability would really change. But for anybody who's just getting out, getting into the game, like you can have one employee and have run this whole thing. So tell me about, why do you think people should consider, the event space business as either a side hustle or even with the intention of turning it? Their main source of. 

Brian Waldron

Yeah, absolutely. first things first, it's a need-based business. people need to have certain events for certain occasions. So like I said if you're having a baby nine times out of 10, you're having a baby shower, especially. And the thing about it is, especially in certain urban communities, like.I live in Brooklyn, right in Brooklyn. We have a lot of high-rises. We have a lot of complexes. It's impossible for me to have party or a baby shower of 70 people in my 500 square foot apartment. It's not going to work. It's not going to happen. So I need to rent a space, hence a need based business, which is why, especially here in Brooklyn, especially in the Bronx, Queens, whatever it takes me to be in these metropolis cities.The business is so popular and the business is so profitable because it's neat. The fact of the matter is if you're living in an apartment complex, your apartment 700 square feet, how are you supposed to hold 70 people in there? You just got to cut the guest list and you got to find a space. And when we come in, like, Hey look, Mr.You can get a space for $1,500. tables, chair, a sound system, security. . So to anybody who's on the fence about getting into that space. one, like I mentioned, it's a need-based business too. It's so easy to automate. Just look at how we do it. Like, I mean, I run seven locations.I'm the principal owner. I have a team, but like, I'm the principal owner. It's not like I have different partners and stuff like that, but I have a team and they run the entire thing. So once you just have a good backend system, it's good to go.

Anne-Lyse Wealth

Can you talk to me about some of the bigger challenges that you face? Cause you you said when you started, you were just kind of figuring it out along the way. Right?

Brian Waldron

Some of the biggest challenges that I faced when I was starting up is. Marketing marketing was the biggest thing, but then when you find a system and you just learn how to retain your audience, how to keep certain data, things like that, it becomes real easy. Like I can drop something today and I'll make five, 10, $15,000 just off my email list. You so anybody who's watching this podcast, I highly recommend, you know, get an email list, get a text message list because Instagram is cool. But remember you want to really keep these people's data, get their email, get their phone numbers. You can constantly contact them. Right. The biggest challenge. The biggest challenge now that I see with people is finding locations because certain landlords and it's the same thing with Airbnb, certain landlords, They're not hip to the idea of, parties. We'll just allow, I always teach my students like, look, there's a certain language.

There's a certain verbiage. You need to talk to these landlords with you. Can't make it seem like you're going to be there three or four o'clock in the morning. And this is just a quick gem for anybody who's watching this podcast. Right. If you're having trouble getting approval from a landlord, what you want to say is these four things. One, we don't go past midnight. We don't do any overnight parties. that's the number one thing that you want to tell them right now? Because the first thing lenders are thinking, oh, these people are going to be drinking and smoking three o'clock in the morning.

Like, no, we don't do that. . Too. We don't allow any alcohol in our premises. Three. You want to let them know that you're fully licensed and insured. They want to know that you have a business license, which is like an LLC. And then you want to have insurance. You need insurance regardless to get the property, but that's the third thing. And then number four, as we have security on premises at all times, that does mitigate the risk. So those four things right there. Drastically increase your chances of getting approved by landlord. But when it comes to finding a location, we have a full backend system called the market analysis. Like I mentioned before, where it basically surveys, the entire area seeing like, you know, what is out there, what's a good location.

What we used to be potentially paying for our property, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera like that.

Anne-Lyse Wealth

So you mentioned that you were, involving like Airbnbs. tell me a little more about. 

Brian Waldron

Yeah. So just diversification. I'm a huge believer in diversification. events, you take your active income and you get passive income, right? So like anybody who's working a nine to five right now, right? You stack your money, you go invest in a space. Now you have two streams of income. You automate the entire space or not. Even when you're working, you're making money from the event space. then as the event, space is profitable. You could take them when you go and get yourself an AirBeam. You can go get yourself a car and Terrell, you can go get a rental property. We'll go get a storage unit. You can go invest in stocks, whatever the case may be. So I just highly encourage everybody to really just diversify your portfolio. I mean, just like any other business, you've been spaced as high seasons and low seasons.you don't want your lifestyle to change because the season changes. That's the biggest thing that I like to say, you you don't want your lifestyle to have to change just because like it's a bad month or it's a low month or whatever, she's going to be No God forbid, but my events base is gonna make no money this month and I'll be all right. So, because I have Airbnbs, I have property, I have car rentals. I have, know, stocks. I have, courses, digital products . So just always want to keep a good balance, but it's just, it's on the road to wealth. It's all along the roads of, well, if you take one income, invest it, you put it into another income. You take that income, invest it, put it into another income, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera, you just keep the ball. Moving money in the bank is dead. You got to keep it moving.

You gotta keep it. 

Anne-Lyse Wealth

So you mentioned that you have students people that you teach about this event space.

Anne-Lyse Wealth

Tell me, it might be hard for you to give me that, but if you can give me like an average, right. Cause I know it depends on where you located and stuff like that. But on average, how if someone would have put in 40,000 to get started, what could they do. Expect to see after a year, if they were doing this.

Brian Waldron

Yeah, absolutely. So about, on average people do when they're starting up and they, you know, not really doing any crazy upsells or anything about $10,000 a month, that's like, all right, cool. to me, if one of my students gives me, like, yeah, like I just mean my first five I'd be like, all right, cool.

Brian Waldron

you're listening to me. That's a good, you So, on average about. $10,000 a month of revenue . And then if you start to get real saucy with the packages and the upsells and you start to really sell, you could definitely do 20, $25,000 a month.

Brian Waldron

Easy. There's a lot of people who are like, like DME and you'd be like, I'm only doing $3,000 a month with my events. want a hundred thousand dollars in a month? I'm just like, well, what are you selling?

Brian Waldron

I'm just like, did you run a market comp analysis? Do you know what spaces are going for in your area? Like you got to see because the thing about it, every person's coming through your door, they're comparing you to other spaces in the area.

Brian Waldron

So what does it make sense to already have that information before. whenever somebody comes to our door and they say, oh, you know, I'm going to see X, Y, Z space. I'm going to go see that space across the street or whatever. I'm like, oh, okay, cool. Yeah. They charged 2,500 for eight hours at a time.

Brian Waldron

They're going to provide you with this. I already know. I already know what's my competition. I already know I'm up against. And that's what helps me better, able to formulate my packages on our pricing. Because the thing about is if I'm charging a thousand dollars for a thousand square feet, everybody else is charging $500 for a thousand.

 

Brian Waldron

I'm going to get no bookings because the market said so, so that's why, when it comes down to making this kind of money, you really got to do your research, just like with everything you have to do your research and you really have to know what's out there so you can better position your business.

Brian Waldron

That's it. But yeah, like if you're getting into it $10,000 a month, $15,000 a month, and 

Anne-Lyse Wealth

That's an 83%, profit minus.

Brian Waldron

That's a roughly. Yeah, because the thing about it is that everybody's different. Like, I don't negotiate every single person's lease. So if you pay some super high inflated lease or whatever the case may be, you're in profit margins are not going to be that much.

Brian Waldron

And obviously if you're not selling, you like I mentioned, like, you know, you're not selling packages, you didn't do your research , then you're not going to have that income to boost those profit margins. So it's. those are my profit margins, and if you follow my steps, you will have also similar profit margins.

Brian Waldron

You know, your payroll X amount of money, your VA's X amount of money that you sell at the certain level, then you'll make those similar profit margins, but not everybody doing it. So, 

Anne-Lyse Wealth

I'm sure somebody smiling, listening or watching thinking, okay, maybe I should get into this.

Anne-Lyse Wealth

If you could give me like steps that they should take to get stuff.

Brian Waldron

Yeah, absolutely. So the what I definitely recommend is, driving around, looking for rent signs in your area or running in that market, searching for spaces on Google, on Craigslist, on craxy on LoopNet. Those are my top search engines right there to go and find your space negotiate that lease, and then you start running and marketing.

Brian Waldron

I have it all listed out in my program. So anybody who is ever interested in just kind of wants it, like. Just go out of my own events, space.com and I have it right there. You could check that out there.

Filling the blank in three words or less money to me is, 

Brian Waldron

Tool for success, 

Anne-Lyse Wealth

Whether you want your legacy to be.

Brian Waldron

Just showing people that entrepreneurship shouldn't be looked upon as being a black sheep or being, like a Maverick or anything. It's literally the only way to truly separate yourself and build wealth. you're not going to get rich off a nine to five. 

Brian Waldron

You have to invest, you have to get your money in certain places that are paying you when you're not working.

Anne-Lyse Wealth

All right. So, Brian, can you tell our listeners where to find you? 

Brian Waldron
