In this powerful episode of Coffeez for Closers, we sit down with Frank López and Edder Barcenas—the visionary founders behind Negozi, the fastest-growing business platform for Hispanic entrepreneurs in the U.S.

What started as a passion project is now a thriving ecosystem of over 40,000 members—with in-person events, job boards, and a mission to educate and empower the undocumented community through entrepreneurship.

We talk real:

  • Running a legal business without legal status
  • Building "the Latino LinkedIn" from scratch
  • Launching Negozee Life to democratize life insurance and financial tools
  • Why financial education is the greatest equalizer
  • And how to build generational wealth—even if you're undocumented

This one's all about vision, grit, community—and breaking cycles of limitation.
