In his youth, he enjoyed the epic waves on both coasts of his home country. He was educated at the Institute of Chartered Accountants Australia, where he received his first of many business credentials. After ten years as a public accountant, Brian felt a burning desire to do something that would fit his passion for surfing while looking for a business idea that would allow him to support himself. He turned in his resignation notice, got on a plane to the States, and became a regular at the classic surfing destinations up and down the southern California coastline. He called Malibu, Cardiff-by-the-Sea, and Swami's Beach his “office.” One day, while pulling on his sheepskin boots after a cold surf session, he realized there were nothing like them available in California. He and a surfing buddy shipped six pairs from Australia to show them around, in search of interested takers. It was at this moment that the UGG brand was born. Brian called on every surf shop up and down the California coast, enthusiastically showing prospective retailers the UGG prototype. Most of the shop owners would deliver the same disappointing reaction: “Brian, we sell flip flops, not boots.” Not willing to give up his idea, he then embarked on a laser-focused effort to gain endorsements and support from the surf community of which he was becoming a respected member. Finally, with two young Pro-surfers on “the UGG team”, a new cult was born and “UGG” became the cool word on California campuses and beaches alike. Had he not diligently stuck to his vision, the idea of UGG Boots would never have come to fruition. Undaunted by the surf shop owners' initial rejections, Brian forged forward with his dream and we all now enjoy our much loved and favorite casual footwear—our UGG boots. After 17 years, Brian sold his company and the brand to Decker's Outdoor Corporation. With their resources, the “casual comfort” segment of the footwear industry came to life and the UGG Brand now garners more than a billion dollars of sales per year, year after year. Having developed the art of storytelling throughout the years, the stage became the perfect place for Brian to present to business owners the ups—and downs—of being an entrepreneur. He found that he not only enjoyed giving these talks, but his audiences were responding in a wide embrace to his stories like he never could have imagined. The size and scope of the audiences grew and now he is one of the most sought-after speakers in the world today. He brings a magical mix of real-world street smarts, kindness, compassion, and respect for the entrepreneurial drive—all of which fit businesses of any size. And, yes, he continues to surf when he's not on tour.

Welcome to episode 32 of Otherwise (un)Damaged! In this episode, our regular hosts Julie Traxler and Michelle Fuller discuss the controversy surrounding Hershey's Chocolate and their International Women's Month commercial featuring a transgender male. They also discuss The Daily Wire launching a chocolate company in response. The hosts delve into the topic of equality and discuss heavily if International Women's Month is even needed.  Spoiler alert - they both vote NO. Julie shares a personal story about her mother's ancestry DNA test results, which revealed that she was not as Irish as she had believed. She also acknowledges that her reason for taking the test was slightly nefarious in nature.  Tune in to find out why she took that test and why she has no regrets.  They also spend time discussing the recent Rasmussen poll asking the question “is it okay to be white?”.  Which turns into a hot debate between Julie and Michelle.  Of course, there are lots of laughs along the way.  Especially when Michelle describes exactly how white she is and Julie explains how basic she is (Target, Ugg Boots, Starbucks level basic). Thank you for tuning in to Otherwise (un)Damaged, and we hope you enjoy the episode. Don't forget to subscribe and leave us a review on your favorite podcast platform. See you next time!

What was the super-pricey item on your Christmas shopping list?

Brian Smith started the global footwear brand UGG with just $500.   At the age of 29, Brian quit his profession in accounting, and went to California to surf and start his entrepreneurial journey.   He noticed that there was no sheepskin footwear in California, but every Australian he knew owned a pair of sheepskin footwear. So he brought six pairs of sheepskin boots from Australia to test the market and UGG was born!   In this episode, Brian shares how to build a meaningful fashion brand and marketing lessons.

BASF will sparen, Intel muss sparen und das Metaverse darf nicht noch mehr an Nutzern sparen. Außerdem hebt Pepsi die Preise an, bis der Gewinn kommt und Elon Musk verkauft verbrannte Haare, aber hinterlässt bei Twitter hoffentlich keine verbrannte Erde. Was haben Ugg Boots und Hoka One One gemeinsam? Sie gehören zu Deckers Outdoor (WKN: 894298) - der vielleicht bekanntesten Schuh-Aktie, die niemand kennt. Die älteste Bank der Welt hat 43.000 Milliarden Dollar, Bitcoin und 4% Dividende. Bei BNY Mellon (WKN: A0MVKA) läuft. Diesen Podcast der Podstars GmbH (Noah Leidinger) vom 13.10.2022, 3:00 Uhr stellt Dir die Trade Republic Bank GmbH zur Verfügung.

Brian Smith is Australian born and was raised with an enduring passion for surfing and the surf culture. In his youth, he enjoyed the epic waves on both coasts of his home country. He was educated at the Institute of Chartered Accountants Australia, where he received his first of many business credentials.   After ten years as a public accountant, Brian felt a burning desire to do something that would fit his passion for surfing while looking for a business idea that would allow him to support himself. He turned in his resignation notice, got on a plane to the States, and became a regular at the classic surfing destinations up and down the southern California coastline. He called Malibu, Cardiff-by-the-Sea, and Swami's Beach his “office.”   One day, while pulling on his sheepskin boots after a cold surf session, he realized there were nothing like them available in California. He and a surfing buddy shipped six pairs from Australia to show them around, in search of interested takers. It was at this moment that the UGG brand was born.   Brian called on every surf shop up and down the California coast, enthusiastically showing prospective retailers the UGG prototype. Most of the shop owners would deliver the same disappointing reaction: “Brian, we sell flip flops, not boots.” Not willing to give up his idea, he then embarked on a laser-focused effort to gain endorsements and support from the surf community of which he was becoming a respected member. Finally, with two young Pro-surfers on “the UGG team”, a new cult was born and “UGG” became the cool word on California campuses and beaches alike.   Had he not diligently stuck to his vision, the idea of UGG Boots would never have come to fruition. Undaunted by the surf shop owners' initial rejections, Brian forged forward with his dream and we all now enjoy our much loved and favorite casual footwear—our UGG boots.   After 17 years, Brian sold his company and the brand to Decker's Outdoor Corporation. With their resources, the “casual comfort” segment of the footwear industry came to life and the UGG Brand now garners more than a billion dollars of sales per year, year after year.
