In 2016 I co-founded a drinkware company. It seemed insane to others We would be competing with great brands like Yeti and Hydroflask. We only had $200,000 while our competitors had hundreds of millions. Today we sell over $100,000,000 annually. A secret on how we did it:
The only way to hedge against inflation is to own a business
