EP 34: Mission Belt's Journey from Shark Tank Pitch to Fledgling Multimillion Dollar Company, w/ Nate Holzapfel
18 Aug 2015
I talk with Nate Holzapfel, the founder of Mission Belt, a micro-adjustable belt that was successfully pitched and funded by Daymond John on the US TV show Shark Tank. We talk about the effect of Daymond and Shark Tank on business; prior to show, Mission Belt sold $39,000 in 3 months and after the show, $1million in 3½ weeks, and now turns-over multi-million dollars ever since. We discuss this company’s “right fit” team and it's hiring culture in Utah. We are also privy a range of juicy social media and marketing tips and golden nuggets of wisdom from this 36-year-old who has “made the mistakes of a 75-year-old man.” ★ Support this podcast ★
