Ryan Mckenzie is the co founder of Tru Earth which bootstrapped from 0 to 2.5 million in monthly revenue in only 17 months while waging a war against plastic. After a career of growing several premium subscription boxes to multi-million dollar businesses, this serial entrepreneur decided to create a subscription, zero-waste, environmentally friendly laundry strip that completely eliminates the need for heavy plastic detergent jugs. With roughly 85 thousand active subscribers in 45 different countries, they have collectively kept over 2-million plastic jugs out of landfills, donated well over 2-million loads of laundry to vulnerable families in Canada, the United States and Ghana, and skyrocketed to the second fastest growing startup in Canada this year.But the success of 8 figure monthly run rates has not always been the norm. Starting in the 90’s this entrepreneur has seen the heights of success getting hundreds of thousands of subscribers, generating 6 & 7 figures a month in revenue, and the lows of losing it all, working out of an ice cold garage in the canadian winter, and rationing out discount ground beef for his family for the week. Despite the ups and downs, the lessons learned in his 20 year career helped him design a subscription model around this laundry Eco-Strip, initially aiming to sign on 150 customers, and landing him with an astonishing fifteen-hundred in the very first month!This disruptive startup and innovative founder has been featured in dozens of media outlets and in his written content that has been read by more than 100 million readers.

Kuda Biza on How To Find Your Purpose, Non Profits vs For Profits, & Getting Outside Your Comfort Zone | Evolve 049
Kuda Biza is the Co-Founder of Nunbelievable & author of the SPEAR Method. Kuda went from washing windows as a young kid in economically deteriorating Zimbabwe to building 6 businesses & a non profit  to solve two of the world’s biggest problems: education and hunger. With only $150 in start-up capital, he launched a profitable clothing line from a college dorm room, resulting in the education of more than 100 children in Africa. He then launched a global buy-one-give-one social enterprise which has donated over 10,000 school supply kits to underprivileged students in Africa. His most recent venture, Nunbelievable, is a mission-based baked goods company that donates a meal for every cookie sold. Within just one year they have donated more than 100,000 meals and even had one person committed to buying close to six figures’ worth of these socially conscious cookies.  Pretty extraordinary for someone who once lived through a drought that left millions without food and killed several of his friends and neighbors. Yet this gritty and determined entrepreneur wanted to change that. So staying up all night in internet cafes for scholarships and coming to the U.S. with only $40 in his pocket, he sharpened his spear studying business in college, launching startups, and spending over a decade in various roles at a Fortune 500 company where he helped take a new meal delivery business venture from ZERO to $20M in 3 years and managed a $75M ecommerce business across major outlets like Amazon, Retail.com and direct-to-consumer sites.Additionally, he is a renowned public speaker delivering keynote addresses at more than 40 institutions in 4 countries including Harvard, the United Nations, and TEDx, inspiring audiences to take action, achieve dreams and impact social change through purposeful entrepreneurship.Find all the shownotes for this episode at https://www.evolvethe.world/kuda-biza

Brandon Explores The Secrets Of Higher Ed & Sugar Baby University with Kimberly De La Cruz
As I mentioned in my last solo episode I was going to start sharing my founder journey as it happens in real time. One of the most important things a founder can do before developing a solution is to truly understand the problem. Well today I wanted to understand the financial problem of higher education from a perspective I couldn't find elsewhere. So after hearing her captivating interview on The Portal Podcast with Eric Weinstein, I decided to invite Kimberly De La Cruz on the show.Kimberly is an Award-winning journalist-turned-publicist who transitioned from covering nightlife and entertainment at Nevada's largest daily, to a career in public relations. She is currently the spokes person for SeekingArrangement and "Sugar Baby University.” who has created an uncanny solution to the American student debt crisis and insane tuition rates. The world's largest Sugar Dating website is challenging this enormous burden on young people by connecting them with Sugar Daddies -- generous individuals with the means to help with tuition, books, living expenses and everything else that results in fewer college students having to incur a lifetime of crippling debt.  This discussion is not about whether this Sugar Baby University is right or wrong, its about the 1.6 trillion dollar student debt in higher education that has created the foundation for this to be possible. The greatest challenge for higher education today is to decrease its price premium and increase its contributions to students and society. My desire to speak with Kimberly was to pull back the curtain on the areas the present institutions, as you will found it in this interview, are just unwilling to look. As a someone dead set on building a better university for the future, its going to require knowing all angles of the problem.Get more of the Evolve Podcast at https://www.evolvethe.world/

Eric Bandholz On How To Build A 7 Figure Startup With 3 Core Values | Evolve 41
Eric is the founder of Beardbrand, author of the Book of Reminders, and is the forefather of the urban beardsman movement which turned a $30 investment in a side project into a 7 figure eCommerce business dominating a market. With a value for freedom, this bearded entrepreneur and his team have bootstrapped the entire way by focusing on community, experience, and educational content which has amassed a 1.59 million subscriber count on youtube that fuels over two thirds of their purchases.However the journey started as many beards do, patchy, unpredictable, and going astray. With the entrepreneurial spirit in his blood, he attempted dozens of businesses from selling vinyl graphics to graphic design and most failing to make any money at all. So it was back to putting on a corporate veil and working in sales. In a culmination of feeling caged working as a financial advisor and tired of hearing duck dynasty or grizzly adams references about his beard, he set out once again and this time to change the way society views beardsmen.Starting in 2012, the humble brand was nothing more than a community that gained the attention of a New York Times reporter seaking expertise on beard care products and started a roller coaster of events that grew them $0 to over $120k per month in sales. From getting beard rubs by the sharks on shark tank, being featured in a World Series commercial by Shipstation, to partnering with retail juggernaut Target, this small but mighty ecommerce business has received plenty of exposure. Yet the truth to their success has not been predicated on one hit wonders and hyper growing profits at all costs, but rather grown consistently month over month with a dedication to making men awesome.Sharing his story and helping thousands of other entrepreneurs, he has been featured in Forbes, inc, the wall street journal, fast company, & dozens of entrepreneurial podcasts including Foundr and Entrepreneur on Fire.Find all the shownotes at https://www.evolvethe.world/
