UtahPreneur - Inside Utah's Most Iconic Businesses
How I Turned $2.8K into $3.2M from my BYU Dorm Room
From teaching swimming lessons in Pleasant Grove to building a $500K marketing agency from my BYU dorm room, this is the full story of how I turned $2.8K into $3.2M in Utah's growing tech scene. I'm sharing everything – how my Mormon mission changed my business approach, why I dropped out of BYU to pursue entrepreneurship, and how I scaled my agency to serve 50+ orthodontists before selling it. Plus, the surprising pivot into affiliate marketing that now generates $50K+ monthly while working just 4 hours a day.
This is Episode 0 of UtahPreneur, where I'll be sitting down with Utah's most interesting founders and business owners to uncover the real stories behind their success. Whether you're a Silicon Slopes startup founder, a small business owner in Utah County, or just someone interested in building something meaningful, this show takes you inside the headquarters of Utah's most exciting companies to learn directly from the people who built them. Join me as we build Utah's most connected business community.
