David graduated college following the path he thought he was supposed to, and it landed him in medical sales. He did well but got frustrated with the corporate world.

Proper Knot and David Alan Clothing, the company's purpose is to reintroduce people to the modern day gentleman, they want to bring back that feel of the 1940’s and 50’s where everyone was dressed head to toe even to places like the grocery store. It’s their job to turn men into gentlemen but also put these gentlemen in the right mindset to dress professionally. #Timestamp 00:50- David’s Food is His Drive and Never Giving Up 03:00- Introduction to David Alan 05:40- When did David’s Entrepreneurial journey begin 06:45- Where did the passion come from? 08:15- What is the Proper Knot and David Alan’s clothing? 10:40- What is a Modern Day Gentleman 13:00- Does The Suit Guy Wear Anything Outside of a Suit? 14:00- Difference Between A Custom Suit and a Store Brand Suit.

It’s not about starting something, just to start something. But doing something when it’s right Believe in Yourself A lot of people near and dear to myself did not believe in me in the beginning but your the only one that submerges yourself in the product. I was told that my idea was stupid. I’d never make it, but that just fuels me. Because your mind set and the way you look at life is so powerful as far as getting to that next level. You can truly do whatever you put your mind to it. Have Fun What are you doing if you’re not having fun doing it. Medical sales was a tin of fun, but I lost the passion. I gave up a 40 hour work week to work 80 hours a week.I wouldn’t have changed it for the world, I love my clients, I love the people I’m with. If I could work 200 hours a week, I would.
