How I Turned $500 Into A Multi Billion Dollar Business UGG Founder Brian Smith

Marty Clay Season 1 Episode 10

UGG Founder Brian Smith is a best selling author of the book called The Birth Of A Brand, entrepreneur, international speaker, coach and mentor.     

Brian has become one of the most sought after speakers and business leaders in the country. His inspirational talks and media appearances on his breakthrough business strategies are widely attended by entrepreneurs and business people of all ages. 

From UGG's early roots in Southern California, the underlying mantra has been “You can’t give birth to adults.” Every business starts with conception, birth, and a long infancy, followed by the toddling, youthful and teenage phases eventually, reaching maturity. Time and time again, people have approached Brian after his talks and told him they were about to give up their dream only to realize they were simply in one of those early phases. It’s their “aha” moment they understand the steps and the drive needed to keep moving forward.
