FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Tontine Café to Reintroduce Community Currency Model as Core of Non-Profit Venture Greensboro, NC — May 1, 2023 — A new initiative is underway to launch the Tontine Café , a proposed 501(c)(3) non-profit that will use community currency—not coffee sales—as its central business model to teach entrepreneurship and fund climate-related solutions.

The Variance Tax

Image
Every retailer manages complexity. Store formats differ, channels have different economics, regional preferences are real and so forth. There is also the internal complexity of products and that has to be managed accordingly. Some of that complexity is intentional and strategic. But a lot of it is the result of accumulated drift; exceptions that became the norm and inherited processes that date back to the dark ages. That drift is costing retailers a pretty penny. We call this cost The Variance Tax . The Variance Tax is the total combined cost (in labor, margin erosion, lost time, error rates and other related factors) of maintaining complexity that exists for historical or operational reasons rather than strategic ones. A few examples… Product creation calendars in apparel are typically a “cut and paste” from the previous season. Over time, calendars read like a job description more than a governance tool, riddled with exceptions that have become the norm. Nobody revisits the ...

Want More Success? Invite More Rejection

Most people want more success, but very few are willing to accept what comes with it: rejection. The two are inseparable. A powerful example comes from Robert Glazer’s reflection on his year. He described 2025 in two completely different ways, both true. On one hand, it was filled with rejection. Hundreds of podcast rejections. Missed sales goals. Opportunities that didn’t materialize. Unsubscribes. Silence. Even criticism. On the other hand, it was one of his most successful years. Strong book sales. Bestseller recognition. Record speaking engagements. Growing audiences. Thousands of people impacted. Same year. Same effort. Two completely different narratives. The lesson is clear. Success and rejection travel together. You cannot increase one without increasing the other. This becomes even more apparent in a simple exercise described in his writing. A volunteer is given a coin labeled “yes” on one side and “no” on the other. They have thirty seconds to flip it as many times as...
