More About Darek:
I grew up as the child of two entrepreneurs; my father owned a construction business and my mother owned and ran a deli.
From a very young age I caught the entrepreneurship bug. I would sell rulers and pencils to my classmates in grade school. I quickly realized that what excited me about business was helping other people get what they wanted, and how it created financial freedom for me at the same time.
As I got older, I did everything I was “supposed” to do. I got a business degree and went to work in the private sector. However, something was missing for me. I remembered what it was like to work with my dad, knowing that he controlled his own destiny.
I found that I loved working with business owners. However, I wasn’t able to help the people who needed help the most. While working for the Fortune 500 companies, I found that I could help the “winners”- those companies that were well established, had great credit, and were already generating lots of money. The people I truly wanted to help were the next generation of entrepreneurs. These people bravely carved out their own paths, and like my parents, were setting out to make a better life for themselves through their own creativity and initiative.
I was good with money. I was supporting my family. Though deep inside, something was missing. I knew I had to make a decision.
At the same time that I was working for the Fortune 500 companies, I began helping entrepreneurs by becoming a mentor at SCORE. Through volunteering at SCORE, I was able to connect with entrepreneurs who really needed my help. I found it extremely rewarding to watch them gain confidence and start to flourish once they had the right tools and strategies in place.
I sat down one night at home and started thinking about everything I knew about business, both from hands on experience and from college. I thought about how often business owners thrust themselves out into the world without the tools that they need for success, including financial strategies and organizational tools.
I realized that MY calling is to help business owners get the tools and support they need to make their businesses “take off". That’s how Business Runway was born.
