On today’s episode, Kunle is joined by Yong-Soo Chung, Founder of Urban Every Day Carry, a business and community supporting creative makers and designers of knives from all over the world. Inspired by the families of his high school classmates whose parents were C-level executives working in big companies and being a South Korean immigrant in a white-dominated private school, Yong-Soo was driven to start a company one day. A few years later, he built not just one but four ventures or businesses. He did not just build a money-making business but also built a community that brings people with a certain passion. Yong-Soo’s first company is Urban Everyday Carry, a company that helps small-time knife makers and designers all over the world which brought together a community of people with a passion of collecting knives, and sharing stories with each other. GrowthJet is a climate-neutral 3PL that was primarily just a solution to a troublesome order fulfillment for Urban EDC.  The third one, Spotted by Humphrey, an online dog products boutique, was an unexpected venture after Yong-Soo and his wife’s French Bulldog suddenly became an Instagram sensation. Lastly, First Class Founders, Yong-Soo’s podcast where he shares his experiences on a podcast in hopes to inspire and prevent business owners to commit mistakes that he had made while he was still starting his own. It’s an awe-inspiring episode as you’d hear Kunle and Yong-Soo talk more about Urban EDC’s core values, operations, and growth, GrowthJet’s First and Class Founders’ advocacies, and Spotted by Humphrey’s story. ----------- SPONSORS: This episode is brought to you by: Klaviyo This episode is brought to you by Klaviyo – a growth marketing platform that powers over 25,000 online businesses.
