Tyler Norris is a student entrepreneur from the University of San Diego. He is the Founder and CEO at http://www.soulrbowls.com/ (SoulrCarts), an awesome solar powered food cart franchise with a big vision. His company recently made it through the final round of Oxygen Network’s startup program, “Quit Your Day Job”, and will be broadcasted on national TV sometime early 2016.

 

STRATEGIES USED TO FUND BUSINESS
Right when I had quite Apple, I have dabbled in flipping vintage trailers. What I would do is buy them and putting them in a storage facility, renovating them, and flipping them on Craig’s list. A few trailers later, I was making food carts.

FOUNDERS
The food cart business was my own thing. I was doing it on the side. When I started the company, I knew that I wanted to do my own thing, but I didn’t know what it was going to transpire into. I wanted to do something in the weekends where I can do self-operations and make a living.

DESCRIBE A MOMENT WHEN YOU FELT LIKE GIVING UP
When I quit Apple, I contemplated if I had made the right decision. Leaving a work with benefits, stock options, and a decent wage was a big hurdle to jump over, but I knew a big net would catch me once I made the leap.

HUGE SUCCESS
A great success would have to be landing on a TV show. We also locked down a pretty cool spot over the summer at Belmont Park in Mission Beach.

SUPERPOWER
It’s good vibes. If you can harness good vibes and stay present and keep a positive thought when things get tough, I think that’s a big superpower anyone can have.

KRYPTONITE
I’m terrible at multitasking for the most part.

IF YOU CAN HAVE ANY SUPERPOWER…
I would want the power to stop time. If I can stop time and clean the house, clean the garage, and my car, then that would be huge.
