  • If You Can’t Pay for Advice, Don’t Pay for the Deal | Bread & Butter Podcast - Ep 84 Ft. Tej
    Everyone loves the glam side of business, the cars, the followers, the “I just bought another company” moments. But the truth? Real business is boring. The successful ones do the ugly bits over and over again, the accounting, the tenders, the HR headaches, and the contracts nobody reads. In this episode, we sit down with Tej Talks, the entrepreneur behind an £80K-a-month cleaning business, to break down what it actually takes to buy and grow companies, often without spending your own money. From the reality of buying a business for £50K and turning it into £250K in revenue, to why most people lose money because they refuse to spend £200 on advice, this is one of the most honest business conversations online. We also talk about: Integrity vs. hype in the property and business space How personal brand builds investor trust Why “boring is profitable” Mergers, acquisitions, and avoiding expensive mistakes The pink Porsche story 👀 If you’ve ever said “I want to buy a business” after watching a TikTok — watch this first. 🎧 Tap in now, and don’t forget to Like, Share & Subscribe!

  • Marriage Isn’t Subtraction: Building, Protecting, and Choosing Well | Bread & Butter Podcast - Ep 84
    Men fear marriage will cost them everything. We argue the opposite: with the right person, marriage is protection, growth, and focus. The danger isn’t commitment, it’s confusing performance for partnership. Wedding inflation and viral proposals can seduce you into spending for comments instead of building for your future. That’s because social media isn’t “just social” social media is media, and if you let it set your standards, it will also set your debts. The antidote is selection and standards: choose before you “blow,” when character is loudest and the crowd is quietest. Pick independence, shared values, resilience and a pace of life that fits your pockets, not the internet’s highlight reel. Protection starts with who you build with and who can challenge you. Accountability circles matter because love can make smart people move mad; you need brethren who will pull you back to sense. Inside the relationship, love languages have to land in real life, consistency, listening and follow-through beat grand gestures that don’t speak to your partner’s heart. When you align values, habits and goals, stability shows up. Stability creates focus, focus compounds into results, one reason so many high earners and owners are married. If you’ve ever asked, “How do I protect myself?” start by protecting your selection. Build with someone who was already building, so when life swings, your household doesn’t. And if this conversation helps you think clearer and choose better, plug into the community for ad-free episodes, live backchat, and bonus game from our guests.

  • Usage, Exclusivity, and the Bag: Creator Deals 101
    Influencer rates aren’t random, they’re math. In this episode, Safiyah (Director at Connect Management) lifts the lid on how fees are actually set: deliverables, usage rights, exclusivity windows, sector dynamics, whitelisting/paid media, and repurposing across platforms. We dig into how micro-creators turn consistency into full-time income, why affiliate + base hybrids often outperform “flat fee only,” and the payment structures (monthly/quarterly) that protect creators’ cash flow.We also get real about representation: historic underpayment, how to advocate for equal rates, and what great managers do to push back without burning bridges. Safiyah shares how to navigate rooms where you’re the only one, turning visibility into credibility, and clarifies PR vs. Marketing in one line you’ll never forget.If you’re a creator, manager, or brand, this is a playbook for deals that perform and pay. You’ll learn: Pricing levers: usage, exclusivity, deliverable scope, sector, whitelisting, repurposing Micro vs. macro: ambassadorships, affiliate structures, and what “good” looks like Cash flow: negotiating quarterly payouts and clear KPIs PR vs. Marketing (different targets, different KPIs, different budgets) Fair pay & representation: setting standards, pushing back, staying professional Manager POV: what makes brands say yes, and what gets deals rejected Learn more about your ad choices.

  • No Shortcuts: The Hard Work Behind “Overnight” Success| Bread & Butter Podcast - Ep 81 Ft. Qoy
    Joy isn’t the same as happiness and for Qoy, that distinction changed everything. In this episode, she traces the moments she chose joy over expectation: rejecting a private-school scholarship after watching how her mum was treated, walking away from a high-paid job that drained her spirit, and building a show with no rules simply because she knew the world would enjoy her being herself. What begins as South vs East banter becomes a bigger conversation about identity, free will, and the quiet courage it takes to leave “good on paper” environments that are bad for your soul. Qoy talks faith without preaching, boundaries without bitterness, and the unglamorous truth that there are no shortcuts only the hard you choose and the hard you love. We dig into originality as strategy, not slogan. Qoy breaks down how turning YouTube into a living portfolio led to real cheques and real rooms, where asking isn’t “begging” but professional curiosity that opens doors. She owns her pricing mistakes (“they would’ve paid me thousands more”) and maps the uncomfortable climb from freelancer to business owner: moving from vibes to systems, from solo to teams, from reactive gigs to B2B services. Along the way, London is both backdrop and teacher, South London grit meeting Somerset House polish, proof that where you’re from can be an asset if you know how to carry it. If you’re 18–25 (or just early in a new chapter), this is part blueprint, part nudge: take five years to try everything, document what works, learn fast, and protect your joy like it pays your bills, because one day, it might. Like, comment, and share with a friend who needs the reminder that purpose over paycheck. 🎧 Tap in now, and don’t forget to Like, Share & Subscribe!

  • Purpose, Profit, and Proof: A Playbook for Black Founders | Bread & Butter Podcast - Ep 82 Ft. Mas
    What if you could take luck out of business? In this Bread & Butter episode, Tayo and Eman sit down with Masibu “Mas” Manima, founder of Translate Culture (performance marketing for consumer brands) and Direct to Culture(connecting Black-owned media with brands), to break down how real growth actually happens. We go past “post and pray” marketing into a practical, test-and-learn system: form a hypothesis, run controlled experiments (ads), extract the signal, and iterate until you’ve built a repeatable engine.Mas explains why many founders start from pressure (job/finances) and how that can trap us in short-term thinking, chasing vanity metrics or leaning only on friends/WhatsApp. Instead, he shows how to treat ads as feedback at scale: identify your funnel stage (awareness → consideration → conversion), set the right objective, and measure what matters (email capture, CAC, ROAS, LTV). We get specific on lookalike audiences, retargeting hot lists, picking seasonal bestsellers, and how to validate demand cheaply before you go all-in, so you can stop guessing and start scaling.We also dig into the checkout reality: friction kills sales. If your site doesn’t support ultra-fast payments (e.g., Apple Pay), every extra step is money lost. Mas breaks down TikTok Shop as a once-in-a-cycle opportunity, why distribution beats product in the early days, and how bigger, less crowded markets (hello, pets) can be smarter than piling into the same niches. He’s candid about pricing, serving community without undercharging forever, and turning his biggest L (a failed home show that hit the wedding fund) into a career-defining W, proof that planting seeds pays off, just not always on your timeline.🎧 Tap in now, and don’t forget to Like, Share & Subscribe!The Bread and Butter by Emmanuel Asuquo & Tayo Oguntonade is not your typical finance or business podcast, it explores real-life stories of how money plays a part in our day-to-day life - with no boundaries, no secrets and no censorship.
