228: Smart Hustling to Create Your Own Opportunities — Eric Allred

Eric Allred grew up outside of Chicago, Illinois, midwestern kid at heart. Went to University of Wisconsin - Madison where he didn't attend any classes the last 5 semesters (just took exams) because he hated the classroom setting. Worked in tech consulting for a year before quitting and going to help a friend build his business.

They grew it from just around $500,000 to over $3,000,000 in sales in about 18 months opening 4 locations. After a falling out he moved to Los Angeles and worked with a menswear company where he ran the #1 office in the company and was the face for national training videos for interviewing and running training seminars. That led to today where Eric is partners in a Media Holdings company that his partner and himself are building out, have an outside shot of hitting 8 figures in revenue.

Eric also took over as CEO for an e-juice and CBD oil company. They'll be touring the United States the next 4 weeks doing a pop-up along the east coast and later this fall throughout the west coast.
