Today we’d like to introduce you to Willi Millions
Hi Willi, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstory.
I’m Willi Millions, an influencer, educator, community curator and entrepreneur that thrives off the concept of turning creative ideas into influence, impact and income.
Born in Philadelphia PA, I relocated to Atlanta, GA to attend college. After graduating from Clark Atlanta University, with a degree in Marketing and Community Development, I began my professional career in entertainment with the Atlanta Braves. Then I shifted my focus to the music entertainment industry, creating unique avenues to get artists more exposure.
Beginning my entrepreneurial journey, I founded the multi brand boutique, BLK Millions edu, that utilizes creative media to educate, expose and empower millions of youth, in the black and brown communities. BLK Milliions’ aim of importance was financial education.
Combining both my business and passion, I created COOL WRLD COLLECTIVE; a premiere collaborative commUnity for creatives, artist and influencers. Specializing in innovative advertising campaigns for hyperlocal and global brands; we utilize creative media, our content gallery space and cool products, to Influence culture & directly touch consumers.
The mission of COOL WRLD, Is simple; create a world where opportunity is the byproduct of community and collaborative creativity.
My brand marketing reach has encompass many different entrepreneurial landscapes over my career in entertainment, including media, consumer package goods, real estate, photography, technology, management, political and sports.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
Without mentorship my entrepreneurial journey has definitely presented many struggles along the way. And although I’m driven by creativity, I’ve learned, like thousands of other creatives, that creativity without business is usually victimization; and “You Can’t Grow the Numbers, if you don’t Know the Numbers,” So constantly working to detail a financial plan that prioritizes essential expenditures and explores cost saving measures; while seeking strategic partnerships to secure additional funding is key.
A major challenge in growing a Creative CommUnity, that specializes in influencer advertising and marketing.. is access to opportunities. Access to the right brand partnerships, with the budgets and that understand + see the value in our unique approach to advertising & youth marketing.
And creating a new culture for collaboration amongst creatives, that leads to opportunity, is an obstacle within itself.
But COOL WRLD is committed to fostering a collaborative and inclusive creative environment, that creates memorable and meaningful hyperlocal experiences, and creative media for viewers worldwide.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
Envision a world where Creativity, Diversity and meaningful story telling takes center stage. Its a world where Dreamers flourish and artist, creatives & influencers join forces. That world is COOL WRLD. A collective community, utilizing creative media, for influencers and businesses to connect and create.

We’d love to hear about how you think about risk taking?
Without no risk there’s no reward. And coming from where I’ve come from, you learn to take risk in order to improve your situation. I’m a all money in type of guy, so I will always take risk but as I learn & grow, my risk become more calculated.
