About James
What does speaker, author and trainer, James “Bird” Guess have in common with Nike Inc. founder and billionaire, Phil Knight, Carmex lip balm founder, Alfred Woelbing, and multi-millionaire financial guru, Dave Ramsey? They all started their businesses from the trunk of their car.
James Bird Guess is a speaker, author and trainer on top performance, innovative leadership and small business growth. He went from homeless to successful boot-strapping entrepreneur, to a world-renowned speaker and trainer. Over 20,000 management leaders, small businesses and universities have relied on James to bring the best out of people in the workplace, grow their business in any economy, and develop innovative leaders.
Clients such as Sonic Inc, the U.S. Department of Energy, University of Texas at Dallas, and the Pittsburgh Micro-Business Institute know the value of James’ speaking and training experiences, which have boosted employee morale, improved team performance, increased business growth, and transformed people into leaders. James is also the best-selling author of the book, How I Made a Quarter Million Dollar$ From the Trunk of My Car, and founder of JBG International Success Academy, a personal development training and research company.
James had a childhood dream to become a professional basketball player. He studied Michael Jordan more than a preacher studies the bible; he failed! Once homeless after high school and at rock bottom of his life, he discovered a success process called Grinding, in which a person creates success using ambition, vision, strategy and perseverance.
Starting with only $1,000, poor credit, and a dream to become a millionaire, James single-handedly built a quarter million dollar enterprise selling products from the trunk of his car. After expanding his business model from retailer to wholesaler, he made over a half million dollars, cashed out by investing in rental property, founded JBG International Success Academy, and finally decided to pursue his passion more than profit.
