At just 24 years old, he is building the fastest-growing activewear brand of all time. After failing multiple times and almost going bankrupt, he took his clothing brand from $600k in year one, to $9M last year, and is now pacing to do $60,000,000+ this year. In this episode, he reveals his exact blueprint for hyper-growth: how giving away 10% of his company to a mentor saved his business, why lowering prices unlocked massive scale, and how his team drops CPA from $90 down to $30 by uploading 3,000 Meta ads every single month.
