Description

Dan Demsky is currently the co-founder of Unbound Merino, the ultimate travel hacking clothing brand and one of my favorite companies on the planet.

But before we find out more about Unbound Merino and how they raised $360,000 in their crowd funding campaign, we get an entertaining inside scoop into Dan’s entrepreneurial business journey.

From burning CD’s, to making skate videos, to selling socks – Dan has been on one hell of a business ride. We discover more about the past businesses that Dan has owned and started. He shares what actually made him get into business in the first place and how he bounced back from his lowest business moment.

Dan is one of the most even-keeled guys I’ve ever met. Never too excited, never too stressed, and never too busy to start something. Take a listen!
