Dave Wakeman's The Business of Fun Podcast


Jun 26, 2024

My guest today is Jason Velez from the Staten Island Ferry Hawks. 

I've known Jason for a long time. So long that he has one of the OG Dave business cards. 

So, it was great to catch up with Jason. 

We hit on 3 big topics in this episode:

  • Selling based on value
  • Competing with bigger brands and bigger teams
  • Unique promotions

We talk about the Ferry Hawks partnership with the Wu Tang Clan. 

We talk about creating unique value. 

We discuss why price isn't necessarily a driver of demand...and more. 

2 July, I'm hosting a meet up in London at the Brew Dog in SoHo at 5 PM. 

We can throw back a pint!

We will cover:
