LOS ANGELES, CA, January 15, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- If there's one thing Terrell Samuels has learned from working across multiple industries, it's that fast starts rarely guarantee strong finishes. Whether in healthcare, entertainment, or nonprofit fundraising, he's seen the same pattern play out: when organizations chase short-term wins without a long-term structure in place, the progress doesn't last.

Now, as CEO and President of Monytize.com, Samuels is applying that lesson to the way fundraising is done. Monytize is a digital platform that helps schools, churches, and nonprofit organizations run organized, sustainable fundraising programs. The platform doesn't promise overnight results. Instead, it focuses on systems that can hold up over time—even as leadership, budgets, or participation levels change.

"Everybody wants results," Samuels says. "But if you don't stop to ask whether something can scale or repeat, you'll spend all your time starting over."

This long-term view shows up in every part of how Monytize operates. From the campaign templates to the reporting tools, everything is built to support repeat use. Organizations don't need to redesign their efforts every year. Once a structure is in place, they can refine it rather than rebuild it.

That kind of thinking comes from experience. Early in his career, Samuels helped launch healthcare ventures, including a surgery center and a cancer treatment facility. These weren't one-time projects. They required stable systems, defined roles, and the ability to grow responsibly without losing control.

"In healthcare, everything moves fast—but it also has to work under pressure," he says. "That's where I learned to think past the launch."

After healthcare, Samuels spent several years in the entertainment industry. He served as a partner and VP of Business Development for Inseason Talent and Creanspeak Productions, where he helped manage both creative logistics and business operations. Working in a deadline-driven industry made it clear how important durable systems were—especially when coordinating large teams and tight production schedules.

What ties it all together is how Samuels responds to complexity. Rather than chase fast fixes, he focuses on reducing friction and creating frameworks that survive over time. It's the same approach he uses at Monytize.

"When you think long-term, your decisions change," he says. "You stop doing things that only work once and start building things that keep working."

For Monytize users—mostly small and mid-sized community organizations—that approach makes a difference. The platform helps users plan, run, and track fundraising campaigns without needing outside support or specialized skills. The goal is to give each organization a system they can grow into, not grow out of.

Samuels also encourages his team to design with turnover in mind. "A lot of schools and nonprofits see leadership changes every year," he says. "If your system can't survive a personnel shift, it's not strong enough." That mindset has led Monytize to develop clean documentation, simple workflows, and support features that don't rely on any one person knowing everything.

In a sector where burnout is common, that kind of stability goes a long way. It lets staff and volunteers focus on their work instead of putting out fires. It also builds trust. When a platform works the same way every time, people start to rely on it.

Samuels doesn't try to make this sound glamorous. In his view, long-term thinking is less about vision and more about habits. "You don't need a big speech," he says. "You need consistency. You need to make small decisions that don't break things later."

This shows up in how Monytize is managed internally too. The company doesn't chase feature rollouts or sudden pivots. Its roadmap is paced and deliberate. "We're not racing anyone," Samuels says. "We're trying to build something that still works five years from now."

Even as the platform grows, that mindset hasn't changed. New partners are onboarded gradually. Tools are tested before they're added. Support systems are designed to scale with care. None of it is flashy—but all of it is intentional.

Outside of Monytize, Samuels continues to apply the same steady approach to the community work he supports. He works with foundations focused on youth programs and autism-related initiatives, helping with infrastructure, clinic planning, and operational design. Again, his focus is on what happens after the first wave of energy fades.

"It's easy to launch something," he says. "It's harder to keep it running once the spotlight moves on. That's where the real work is."

Long-term thinking, for Samuels, isn't a branding message. It's a personal operating principle. Across industries and roles, he's chosen systems over style and consistency over speed. In his view, that's the only way to get outcomes that hold up.
