“We’re in this for the long haul, so we’re looking to make personal connections and share the experience with our customers - we’re looking to create an experience for our customers. Once you believe that, then it becomes manifest in everything you do.” - Mark X. Cronin

 

In our Season 2 premiere, host Paige Curtis sits down with John and Mark Cronin, a father and son duo who are the founders of John’s Crazy Socks. In part 1 of our interview with John and Mark, they share the origin story of their business, what makes them unique, and even how they got some ideas from a Jon Favreau movie. John and Mark also open up about John’s journey as a person with Down Syndrome, and how their business gives them the opportunity to advocate for people with different abilities.
