Book Marq Jones for In Person, Virtual and Zoom Presentations!

Welcome!

What is Marcus’s Mission?

• Create awareness surrounding educational issues and highlight best practices!

• Equip teachers to connect with the current generation!

• Encourage and promote healthy value systems and goals!

• Help many overcome mental, emotional, & socioeconomic barriers!

• Show many that effort along with willingness to learn & adapt will bring success!

There's no reason to cry over spilled milk when you have the ability to clean it up! Do what you can, the best way you can, with what you can do it with! Regardless of anything, you must maximize your ability to change your environment because you may be the solution to the problems that you hate the most!

Over the past decade we have seen a drastic decline in student teacher relationships! As teachers and students lightly connect with one another, either via group teachings (classroom setting) or one on one teachings (tutoring), very subtle, yet even shallow relationships are formed. Although being a "subtle & shallow" relationship, it's still a relationship. Kids learn from and pay attention to those they respect, admire, or have some form of a relationship with. Rules without relationship equals rebellion and communication without connection becomes suffocation. Teachers and students are both suffocating in many areas as they're not meaningfully connecting with their educational air supply (each other) to respire the lungs of their educational passion and potential. Being deluged with frustration, misunderstandings, and disconnection, their educational passion and potential is on the brink of collapse or have already done so, and now in need of educational resuscitation with a renewed vision along with mental and emotional sustainability!

Being a millennial, along with working in many different schools and districts, I have connected with teachers and students in a way that I can truly understand both sides of each situation that arises! I certainly see several problems and I have identified the sources of many! However, the common theme I see plaguing today's K-12 classrooms is disconnection and a lack of adaptation. I have much to say and uncover regarding this topic, but the most important thing is to never lose sight of the bigger picture and the HUGE "WHY" behind what helps you to do what you do! You NEVER know how many people your words and action or lack of words and action may impact!

What Problems does Marcus solve? (Not Limited to)

Employee Retention

Financial illiteracy

Student Recidivism

As a former habitual "job quitter" Marq can speak to employees that are on the brink of giving up or seeing if the grass is greener on the other side. Marq uses his experience and best practices to connect with the audience and show them the value of staying with the company.

Student Recidivism

Financial illiteracy

Student Recidivism

Being one that had to make a huge mindset shift regarding school and education, Marq barely graduated high school! He had a habit of skipping school and doing things he shouldn’t have been doing. He can share his struggles & success navigating his choices of a life of crime & destructive behavior and a life of creativity & productive behavior.

Financial illiteracy

Sales Training & Production

During a portion of Marq's mortgage career, he primarily focused on underserved and credit challenged clients. Building a track record of being the loan professional that say's "you're approved" after everyone else said "you're denied," Marq has an equivalent of a PHD in helping clients with "bad credit!" Marq has mastered the ability to breakdown financial literacy to a 2nd grade level!

Sales Training & Production

Bullying & Destructive Behavior

Sales Training & Production

Having over 14 years in "professional" sales experience, Marq has also mastered the art of influence and persuasion. Learning from sales industry leaders from AT&T, Verizon Wireless, Rocket Mortgage, United Wholesale Mortgage, & more, Marq has concluded that "EVERY SALE IS THE SAME!" Sharing his principles and best practices, Marq can train and motivate in any sales arena!

Bullying & Destructive Behavior

Having the deeper understanding that bullies are not "hard," they're "hurt." Marq has full ability and authority to speak to the "hurt" in a bully knowing the depths of the pain of once being a bully and being bullied. Marq's story and transparency can penetrate the hardest of hearts and force them to acknowledge and address the pain that causes them to bully as Marq teaches practical application on how to overcome the pain. There's much more to it, but bullying is mostly an internal issue that in many cases it takes one that can relate in order to address!

Homebuyers Education

Bullying & Destructive Behavior

As not just a "licensed" mortgage professional, but a "seasoned" home purchase expert, Marq can help and prepare anyone for the home buying process. After countless transactions of helping "first time homebuyers," Marq can clarify and address many questions, concerns, and common misunderstandings. Also having such a diverse background in many products and programs, Marq can be your "go to" guy when it comes to niche programs and "one off" scenarios!

Marcus’s Core Values

Integrity

Transparency

The quality of being honest and having strong moral principles; moral uprightness! Simply doing what you said you're going to do! Your word should carry weight and worth. Operating in integrity will help you obtain success, but MOST IMPORTANTLY, integrity will help you sustain success!

Transparency

The quality of allowing others to see the good, the bad & the ugly of where I once was and where I'm going. This also involves becoming vulnerable in a self-sacrificial way in attempts to connect deeper with the audience with the objective of being relatable. In other words, it's just flat out "keepin it real

Authenticity

Along with being transparent or "keepin it real," authenticity is nearly the same, but staying true to oneself in the midst of any environment. Although Marq can adapt to nearly any environment, he's able to do this without losing authenticity. Learning how to be one's authentic self is another key to success!

Persistency

Authenticity

The quality of persisting; continued effort or existence. There are countless examples of many that has overcome obstacles and challenging situations. The one thing they ALL had in common is the fact that they ALL had to apply effort. Effort is the MOST important subsistence that will determine one's course in life. Knowledge multiplied by effort (persistency) equals power!
