Video interview with Kinko's founder, Paul Orfalea
NextStepU founder and CEO, David Mammano, interviewed Paul Orfalea, founder of Kinko’s.

Orfalea: Money. I was in my business for the money. I didn’t enjoy Xerox copying and printing and all that. I liked the money. There’s nothing wrong with saying you like the money. My best stores had the happiest workers and the most satisfied customers.
Mammano: You talk a lot about working on your business rather than in your business, can you expand on that?
Orfalea: A lot of people smoke cigarettes because they are in life, but if you’re on life you say “Oh I think cigarettes aren’t very good for me.” A lot of times when we are in life, we don’t realize what we are all about.
Mammano: Looking back now, would you change anything?
