Today we’d like to introduce you to Shawn Randle.
Hi Shawn, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
I have always had a passion for helping people. When I started the journey to find my personal style I came across barbers on YouTube, from there my interest was sparked and I started looking further into barbering. In my research, I realized barbering is a profession. I knew this would be a perfect way for me to turn my passion into action. I enrolled in Paul Mitchell school of Tampa part time to become a certified barber, while working a full time job. Once I graduated my story began.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
My story like any good book had challenging chapters.
Chapter 1 Covid
Chapter 2 Newborn Baby
Chapter 3 Full-Time Job
Chapter 4 Sleepless Nights
Chapter 5 Finding my Starting Point – (Where do I best fit in the profession)
Every chapter made my passion stronger.
Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
Classic King Cuts is known for its taliored cuts and the diversity of its customer base. What sets me apart from others is that I’m always considerate of my customers time while making sure the service I provide is taliored to them and top quality. What I am most proud of about my brand is the quality and uniqueness of the services that I provide. I take pride in my skill set by providing quality services to a diverse customer base. I also provide a calm and private one-on-one environment.
Risk taking is a topic that people have widely differing views on – we’d love to hear your thoughts.
The view on risk taken is that you have to take risks to be able to follow your dreams and be successful. I stepped out on faith to follow my dream and started my own barber business. The most recent risk that I took was this summer. I was selected to participate in the Raymond James Stadium Eighth Annual Back to School Bash however I was notified the morning of the event. I was excited but, I did not know what to expect. This would be my 1st time participating in this event. I always keep a fully supplied mobile barber case so, I was prepared to move quickly during this impromptu opportunity. I was the first to arrive at 7:00 a.m. and later had a great opportunity to meet several barbers from different locations and skill sets. Always be ready for an opportunity.
