About this Episode

Army guard veteran Blake Maske talks about how he transitioned to entrepreneurship. Building a business from scratch has not been a walk in the park for him. It has taken a lot of sacrifice and hard work.

From a very tender age, Blake had an entrepreneurial spirit that many people always view as rebellious. He likes to do what people think he can’t do.

One special thing about how Blake and his partner run their business is the handwritten letters. When did you last receive a handwritten letter? It’s something super special for the customers.
