EP.9 Malik Agboola Co-founder of Goodman Factory
Welcome to the ninth episode of the Black Founders Series. Meet Malik Agboola, the co-founder of Goodman Factory - a community of men who embrace their identity through grooming tips, mental health discussions, motivation & real stories.
He takes the hot seat today to talk about his entrepreneurial journey and the movements he supports before putting his multi-tasking, improv, and knowledge skills to the test.
Listen and find out how he did!
The Gameshow outline:
1. T-Rex Runner
Our guests test their multi-tasking skills answering questions whilst playing T-rex runner. The aim is to try and stay alive for a minute to get a total of 5 points per question. There are 3 questions. Our guests will gain a point every 12 seconds:
140 game pts (12 seconds) = 1 HOKH pts
280 game pts (24 seconds) = 2 HOKH pts
420 game pts (36 seconds) = 3 HOKH pts
560 game pts (48 seconds) = 4 HOKH pts
700 game pts (1minute) = 5 HOKH pts
Maximum = 15 HOKH pts
2. The presentation curated by HOKH
Our guests don’t have a single clue what they’ll be pitching, but it’s a fake startup idea curated by me. We’ll go through the problem, solution, and business model within a few slides. This will be a test of how well they can sell a product they know nothing about.
Take note: (when recording this podcast, our guest and I were both on camera allowing screen share).
They’ll be scored based on:
Confidence = /5 HOKH pts
Believability = /5 HOKH pts
Answering questions = /5 HOKH pts
Maximum = 15 HOKH pts
