My guest today is Dan Demsky. Dan is a Toronto based entrepreneur with an impressive track record. 11 years ago he started his first business from his mum’s basement and since then he’s founded a 6 figure company, 2x 7 figure businesses, and was a partner in an 8 figure business. He was able to raise $370k from a crowdfunding campaign for his latest business, and grew it to 7 figures in less than a year.
His Latest business is Unbound Merino, a clothing brand providing stylish, simple Merino wool apparel that can be worn for weeks or even months - without ever needing to be washed which is perfect for travelling
I wanted to bring Dan on the show to find out what he’s learned from building multiple businesses over the past decade, how he’s been able to consistently succeed in his ventures, and most importantly find out whether he actually wore the same T Shirt for 46 days in a row without washing it when he was testing materials for his new clothing line
