On this episode of RUHM Podcast, Tim Smith dives in with business Founder & Owner, Thos Carson, to discuss the grassroots beginnings and rise of Bear Flag Fish Company. With a unique exposure to the local surf-mecca entrepreneurial landscape growing up, combined with childhood fishing expeditions that developed an appreciation for locally sourced seafood, and the inspiration he found from mentors along the way - Thos shares how he took these experiences to create a business that is loved by all, and more-importantly, gives back to the coastal Orange County community.
Thos and Tim tackle the key skills entrepreneurs need to succeed. Listen-in as they unpack the significance of having an appetite for learning, gaining knowledge through experience, finding your angles in business, and perfecting your craft. If you’re good at what you do, you can’t fail. Finally, they touch on the idea of adding a spoke to your wheel instead of re-inventing it, and the must-have quality of every savvy entrepreneur: adaptability in an ever-changing world.
