38: Journey From $0 to $200K a Month - Jaylen LaGrande

Jaylen LaGrande (CEO of 3:16 Collection and Million Dollar Brands) comes on the podcast to discuss his success and struggles as a business owner. He started his career eleven years ago with a brand called Religious Expressions, selling t-shirts through multiple brands. Over the last three years, 3:16 Collection has made about 6 million in sales, transitioning from brick and mortar to ecommerce. Through Million Dollar Brands, Jaylen teaches people how to identify problems and create solutions through their clothing brands, emphasizing the importance of community building. 3:16 Collection has gone from selling just T-shirts to a full-scale clothing line including joggers, backpacks, jewelry, accessories and (soon to release) sneakers. He emphasizes that he wanted something unique to him as a believer and fashion lover, and something on the next level. He believes that his brand stands out from other Christian t-shirt companies due to the quality of the garments and the unique design process. It takes a lot of effort to create a successful brand, and Jaylen has done just that for his products.
