Being Good In Business

I got my Andy Warhol award presented to me by way of my intern Richard; it’s the creative Grammy. Thank you, thank you–I’ve got the whole wide world in my hand. I’m thinking about doing a book: The Best of Phifer…


“We’re just busy here…not working, busy playing because work is play when it’s something you like.

I’d asked around 10 or 15 people for suggestions. Finally one lady friend asked the right question, ‘Well, what do you love most?’ That’s how I started painting money.

I suppose I have a really loose interpretation of “work,” because I think that just being alive is so much work at something you don’t always want to do. The machinery is always going. Even when you sleep.”

-Andy Warhol

That’s right you tell them Andy! Say hello to my Andy Warhol figure that comes with me everywhere. I ask him prior to making business decisions. The inspiration.



Andy Warhol Inspiration Box
includes; Andy figure, book of quotes and stickers

I’m thinking about doing a book myself. Maybe something like Kanye’s Thank You & You’re Welcome, with a bobble head included. I wonder how it would look.

I do have a hate Twitter page about me, they said the Location was Lucifer’s tongue. They collected my best quotes/tyrants:

“You should use Marquis Phifer as a resume reference–cause some of yall still makin minum wage.

Start pullin out your tape, make me a space on your wall, cause I know Im’a be all over your inspiration board.

Sell yourself in 3 minutes or less–cause that’s how long it takes for me to make a decision. The rest is just for our entertainment.

If I don’t respond to your email you’ll see why. Priority is my fragrance and small talk I am not interested in smelling.

I’ve got to find me some friends who own a private jet, cause first class is becoming the new Coach Signature.

Lo fired an intern before they even started, and she wrote DEAD on their folder. Ah my heart smiled.”

-Marquis Phifer

Don’t mind me, most of my sayings come from conversations that I have with myself. And someone should employ that person for this book. They’ve done a great job of jogging my memory. Half of this stuff I didn’t remember saying until now. They need to get back to work. And so will I.

“Don’t pay any attention to what they write about you. Just measure it in inches.”-Andy

Thanks Richard!

  7. I never knew there was a hate twitter page. I guess you know when you’re really doing something when people go out of their way to try and make you look bad. Forget them; I’ll buy a few copies of the book if you decide to publish one. Marquis Phifer bobble heads would be amazing.

  8. I can’t hate on your hustle cuz you’re really doing your thing but you are truly full of yourself. It’s actually quite off-putting for people who come to the website to see substance. most times we do but it’s after sifting through all this ego-driven nonsense and at this point, we get it already… don’t beat the dead horse. even you yourself advocate for proper gentleman tactics… so implement them. it’s just constructive criticism, I actually have no doubts that you’ll make it really big (I mean, huge) some day with your work ethic. I just don’t know if i’ll want to read your blog when that happens.
