What does it look like to build a seven-figure business by accident and then use those lessons to build a $40 million company on purpose?
Meet Dan Demsky, CEO of Unbound Merino.
After building a successful service agency that left him feeling like a prisoner, Dan started over with a new vision - to create a profitable, scalable business that truly supported his freedom and lifestyle.
In this episode, you’ll hear how he used a smart crowdfunding strategy, obsessed over product quality, and built a successful company with his best friends - all while working from wherever he wanted.
In this episode:
- The key differences between a "service-based" and a "product-based" business model
- How to use a crowdfunding campaign to validate an idea, raise capital, and find your first 2,000 customers
- The "manufactured momentum" strategy that helped Unbound Merino exceed its funding goal by over 1,000%
- Why working with your best friends can be the best business decision you'll ever make
- How to build a profitable, multimillion-dollar brand without high overhead, a massive team, or an office
- Why obsessive product quality is the ultimate marketing strategy for a direct-to-consumer brand
