On BizBlend with host Sana, entrepreneur Uri Geva (Cookie Dough Bliss; former owner/operator of multiple sports teams) breaks down what integrity looks like in action—when the FBI shows up, when a partner’s scandal hits the news, and when a team’s morale needs rebuilding. We cover crisis playbooks, extreme ownership, selecting the right legal/operational advisors, mentorship as the only real shortcut, and how to protect IP, culture, and customers while scaling a franchise brand. Practical, no-fluff lessons for founders, operators, and leaders who have to make hard calls in public and keep their families anchored in private. About the guest: Uri Geva is a serial entrepreneur based in College Station, Texas. He built early digital agencies serving pro and collegiate sports, operated multiple minor league organizations, and now scales Cookie Dough Bliss, a franchise built on simple operations, joyful product, and strong unit economics. Uri’s lens: integrity first, people over hype, and mentors over guesswork. Key takeaways: Integrity is a behavior, not a slogan: document agreements, protect IP, and keep contracts tight even when momentum is high. In a partner dispute, control what you can: verify ownership (servers/IPs), engage expert counsel (IP + litigation), and preserve client continuity. PR crises require extreme ownership: acknowledge harm, remove the bad actor, call sponsors season-ticket holders personally, and redirect to concrete next steps. Mentorship is the honest shortcut: surround yourself with operators who have “been there, done that” to avoid costly learning loops. Team and family balance is about presence: create protected windows for family, then work early/late; be 100% present in small moments. Before hard conversations, ask: What’s the goal? Let desired outcomes shape tone, timing, and actions. Franchising as “business-in-a-box”: transfer learnings, simplify complexity, and de-risk for first-time owners while maintaining core values.
