1. Personal journey to entrepreneurship
4.1 Real life stories of Teespring users – Kim Springer
4.2 Albert Leonard – Pi Day
Lauren Flake
7th generation Texan woman
Was devastated to see the destruction caused by floods in her area
With two young children at home she couldn’t leave to go volunteer
So she launched charity t-shirts to help support the victims
Posted on her blog, and in Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest
In 12 hours raised $10,000
In less than one week she raised more than $100,000 in donations.
Simon Alexander
Seller based in Ireland
Started one year ago by investing $50 to test his first campaigns
Has now sold over $1Million worth of products on Teespring
Becoming an entrepreneur has freed up Simon to spend more time with his family
Spends 3-4 hours a day on his Teespring business
He’s a father of two (just had a baby recently) and also cares for his terminally ill father.
5. Conclusion – Success is not about billion dollar startups, but building things that have purpose and help people
