Today we’d like to introduce you to William “Trey” Walker.
Thanks for sharing your story with us William. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
T.A.G. Team Mixologists started as a trio back in 2015; two bartenders and one chef. We were starting our catering and mobile bartending company do to the many requests and wants of our customers at a local Dunwoody Japanese Steakhouse. We began servicing many guests outside of the restaurant which led us wanting to start our own company. When it became time to get licensed and established, life happened and it boiled down to just me… T.A.G. or The Alcohol Guy! T.A.G. Team Mixologists now provides services for weddings, anniversaries, parties, corporate functions, bachelor and bachelorette parties and many more. We also provide signature mixed cocktails of all sizes and offer classes for aspiring bartenders and mixologists.
We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc. – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
“The road to success is always under construction.”- Arnold Palmer
My road has had potholes, speed bumps, and sharp turns in it. Just like any road we travel in life, my road has not been smooth. While transitioning from a teacher to bartender, then business owner, there have been a lot of obstacles and lessons that I have encountered that have helped me grow and progress. One of the largest obstacles I have had a face by growing and operating T.A.G. Team Mixologists is licensing and gaining exposure. As I continue to grow and build, I am certain that the road to my companies success will begin to smooth out, T.A.G. Team Mixologists will always be under construction as I am always continuing to “raise the bar.”
So let’s switch gears a bit and go into the T.A.G Team Mixologists story. Tell us more about the business.
T.A.G. Team Mixologists is a bartending and mixology company that specializes in cocktails that cater to a client’s personalized themes, colors, or flavor ideas. In addition to creating the cocktails, we also teach mixing classes, bartend special events, and do restaurant bar setup/clean-up. T.A.G. Team Mixologists is most known for getting our guest “T.A.G.’d” (LIT) while elevating the party atmosphere.
Has luck played a meaningful role in your life and business?
I am a firm believer in putting in the work to create what I want. The art of mixing was a natural talent that I was blessed to have and from there, I wanted to bring my skill set to the rest of the world. Mixology is my passion and everything I have experienced and learned has helped me to build my business and brand.
