Maxwell Ivey grew up in a family of carnival owners. He started losing his vision to retinitis pigmentosa at an early age becoming legally blind by junior high school and totally blind by the time he graduated from college.
He did graduate from traditional schools, achieved the rank of Eagle Scout, and worked in the family business until his dad’s death forced the closure of their small show.
Needing something new he started helping people sell surplus rides. He had to learn so much including how to hand code HTML, recruit clients, set fees, build an email list, manage social media, and more.
People were inspired by his willingness to take on difficult challenges and encouraged him to share more about being a blind entrepreneur.
That led to a second site as the blind blogger, with three books out so far and a fourth due any time. He’s promoted himself through podcast interviews appearing on over 200 shows as well as public speaking where he has shared his inspiring story with local organizations and national conferences.
He helps other creative entrepreneurs grow their brands through online interviews. He loves to sing, travel, and find new adventures.
