Garrett Blood went from building the first health-focused ice cream brand to helping businesses around the world grow. He founded Arctic Zero years before protein ice cream became a trend and scaled it into 18,000 grocery stores nationwide. After selling the company, Garrett launched Kajae, an agency that connects entrepreneurs with talented people across the globe.
In this conversation, Garrett shares what it takes to start something new, the lessons he’s learned from working across nearly every category in retail and business, and why he’s committed to bringing the human element back to the workplace in an AI-driven world. We also talk about his early use of influencer marketing before it even had a name, how to find the right people in the right rooms, and the future opportunities he’s chasing next.
