Description

This week on Flamingo Sundays - Robert Croak. His journey started out with his lower-class upbringing in the Eastern side of Taledo, Ohio. His childhood was turbulent growing up in a broken home with divorced parents. But regardless of the setbacks, Robert never lost focus of his dreams. At the young age of 22-years-old, Robert made his first full time jump into owning his own business, which would be the first of many. He then went on to run the family restaurants and bar "Frankies" which was made famous by his grandfather. And throughout the years, he continued to open more bars and restaurants and that passion for business only grew. But things really started to take off for Robert in the early 2000s when he launched the business "customsiliconebracelets[dot]com". And from that business, the Sillybandz business grew. And in its peak in the mid-2000s that business was doing over $200M USD per year in revenue. From there, Roberts personal and business brands have continued to grow, now amassing millions of followers over his social media channels and being an advisor and investor to many other businesses across the US.
