Daymond John is a classic American success story, rising from humble origins in Queens, New York, to a highly-respected and altruistic entrepreneur who created an innovative brand called FUBU – For Us, By Us. Daymond is now known as a marketing, manufacturing and branding guru, and investor and mentor to multiple startups.
He attributes his success to knowing his consumer segment really well, working really hard, bouncing back from adversity and not worrying about having 99 of 100 doors shut out.
Daymond also takes us behind the scenes at Shark Tank, gives us his insider’s take on the other sharks on the show, what sharks look for, which co-host he would go into business with, which one he won’t, and the real process behind making their investments on Shark Tank, beyond the ten minutes we see on television.
John’s discusses his newest project, Miller Lite Tap The Future, where entrepreneurs with original business ideas will compete for a grand prize of more than $200,000 and receive expert advice from John, one of the contest judges.
