We had the good fortune of connecting with Malik Haleem Swinton, MBA and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Malik Haleem, we’d love to hear more about your end-goal, professionally.
The end goal for myself is to be recognized and ranked in the world for all of my years of hard work. I would like to be featured in more publications and be one of the richest men in the world. The more people I can make happy from my work the better.
In addition, by the end of my career I want all of my businesses and companies to be highly competitive and ranked as the best in my market areas. Also, one of my long term goals are to be ranked in Forbes.
Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I am one of very few multiple business owners in this country. I am the Founder, Owner, CEO, Author, Publisher, Writer, and Editor in Chief of MahatonPlace.com™️, OnlyAthletes1.com™️, and OnlyUniforms2.com™️. I served in the U.S. Army/13F. I have 2 college degrees from the University of Oklahoma (BA) and the University of Phoenix (MBA). I am a former All-BIG XII Track and Field student-athlete while at the University of Oklahoma. I am a member of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Incorporated; Spring 03/ Pi Delta Chapter, University of Oklahoma. I retired from the Department of Justice as a Federal law enforcement Officer (LEO) and a Human Resources manager. I love reading, learning, working out, boxing, training in MMA, and being creative. I enjoy learning as much as possible about some of the greatest thinkers and intellectuals throughout history such as: Socrates, Aristotle, Plato, and Confucius. I noticed in 2020 during the Covid crisis and even now that most people throughout the world are spending a great deal of time in front of their computer, tablet, cellphone, and television. That is when I founded all 3 of my businesses and companies. It actually started as 1 company (LLC) and 1 business; but as I read more and more books, I learned that past founders and or successful owners had a backup plan. So, in January 2020 I started unleashing my creativity and created 3 companies: (Malik Media Enterprise LLC, Haleem Media Enterprise LLC, and Swinton Media Enterprise LLC) and 3 businesses: (MahatonPlace.com, OnlyAthletes1.com, and OnlyUniforms2.com). Everything was eventually incorporated in 2021. I took 1 business idea and turned it into 3. I took 1 standard business revenue from each company and found at least 20 different means of making money. (Mahaton) are the initials of my first, middle, and last name. And I decided to call it a (Place) after brainstorming because I want it to be a place where people can come and spent hours entertaining their self. Nevertheless, Mahaton Place is a social media hybrid Information Technology e-commerce platform. On MP one can learn the best dating tips, advice, techniques, how to dress, and where to wear it, how to speak, what to say and the best places to say it, the best locations to meet a male or female, and much more. I also have multiple packages based on someone’s budget and a variety of newsletters called: (Luvers Lane) and multiple eBooks called: (The Worlds Big2est Secrets). Lastly, I created a feature called: (Ask The Expert) for serious users that need or want instant dating, sex, and or marriage advice. I wanted to shared my expertise and experience because I have been asked for dating and dress style advice for decades and this is my way of giving back; even after my lifetime on this planet has past. Next is Only Athletes. By the way, I created all of these businesses after researching the dating and marriage statistics in the United States and found a terrible trend. And that is out of 10 people that get married 5-6 will be divorced within 5-7 years and that number is worst for athletes and military personnel. But what readers and or the average person do not see or understand is the poor mental health that comes with a divorce or breakup. Many heartbreaks results in suicide or years of depression. Now, I wanted to help some of that hurt by creating a platform for athletes and people in uniforms living throughout the world. They can learn on Mahaton Place and then log on onlyathletes1.com and onlyu
Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
If I had to plan a week long trip for myself, friends and or business associates in the United States, I would choose Las Vegas, NV because there are multiple clubs, bars, restaurants, a great nightlife, plenty of tours, tremendous year round sporting events, and friendly people. You can spend time on the strip at Caesar’s Palace on Las Vegas Blvd or head south and spent hours on Fremont Street. Or if you want to save a few dollars just leave the strip and enjoy the hundreds of great authentic restaurants. Whatever you want to eat, Las Vegas has it. By the end of your trip you will be exhausted because Las Vegas does not sleep.
Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I would like to give a shoutout to VoyageDenver for giving me this opportunity to be seen and heard throughout the state and country. We all need help in order to get a foot in any and all industries. I will forever be grateful to this wonderful company.
And I also want to give all shoutout to my young son Elijah Emery Swinton for forcing me to keep the bar and my standards high because if I do not he will say something; children speak from their hearts. He forces me to be perfect.
Lastly, I want to give a shoutout to my late uncle Robert Hollywood Swinton for always believing in me. He never had negative things to say which is extremely rare now a days. No matter what I did in life he was always supportive and happy for me. When I told him I started 3 businesses and 3 companies: instead of saying, “Why”; he thought that was awesome.
