What does the Fourth of July and Covid have in common? It’s the perfect time to launch a business! At least, that’s what the Founder of LA Custom Kayaks, Brock Miller, did. In the summer before his junior year at LSU, Brock launched a business fueled by his passion for being outdoors and, more specifically, on the water. With the rise of the popular social media app Tik Tok, Brock started posting exciting videos of his big catches. After joining a few fishing and kayak Facebook pages, Brock offered his kayak modifying services to fellow fishermen and anyone in the group who was interested. After customizing a few customers’ kayaks in his parent’s backyard, Brock decided to expand his business and open up a storefront. Although, being a full-time student and business owner had its challenges. Nonetheless, Brock graduated from LSU with a Digital Advertising degree and hit the ground running. Selling everything from merchandising and customized marine mats to gear and accessories, Brock wanted to produce products that he would use himself and that would help every level of fisherman and kayak connoisseur. In this episode, Brock discusses his early love for fishing and the outdoors, the advancement and pros that come with the world of social media, and even a scary story his mom can’t stand that he tells—sorry, mom!
