“It Was Me Or No One,” Andrew, Owner of Mennie Brand
Unemployed & Afraid
This conversation feels like an homage to us business owners who get ourselves into so many uncomfortable moments in pursuit of our dreams – and that sometimes you just have to laugh at the shit we do.
Andrew’s art inspired sock brand, yes socks, called Mennie is a super rare brand these days, as you really get a sense that it’s different, truly authentic and with its own personality.
And after talking to him it’s easy to see why – this brand is an extension of Andrew, his passion for art, for giving things a go and creating.
Through the sharing of Andrew’s story you’ll hear about:
· The power of a creative project to bring you into a new state
· Making your business idea happen when everyone says it can’t be done
· Going DIY at all stage of business development
· The surprising benefits in starting small
· The value in selling a product face to face
· The surprising side of influencer product placement
· And the slow days that can change your life
