Todd Stephenson has managed to set an example for all the youngsters wishing to become entrepreneurs.
For many people, their ultimate goals in life are met only when they pass through a lot of other things or expeditions. It is only when they start their journeys, walk through it that they realize that their actual calling is something else & that they must put efforts in that direction to become successful in life. One such young lad we know is Todd Stephenson who initially ran a chain of bakeries around Florida with his business partner & later realized that they could also attain massive success in the e-commerce world.
Both Todd & his partner knew the amount of opportunities the e-commerce industry could offer them & so they got fascinated with opening up a company online without having to do much like a brick & mortar store. With this idea & aim in mind, both of them started to launch numerous e-commerce stores that sold camping accessories to teddy bears just to see the traction they could get. Soon with gaining experience in the market, they realized that the custom product industry was blooming & going to be the next big thing. After deciding to head towards this business, Todd, along with his partner, launched many custom products & then finally saw the most traction getting received by custom socks.
Initially, they made socks with faces of dogs printed on them & the idea became such a hit that Todd realized that this is the idea they must work upon more. Today Todd Stephenson is the co-founder of PupSocks, which is a rising company that creates socks with printed pets faces on them. Hailing from Naples, Florida, Todd was born in 1994 & studied from the University of Central Florida (UCF); little did he know then that he was going to be a success story with his e-commerce company.
PupSocks has today become the most famous company in Atlanta that sells customized socks capturing pet images & creating innovative pairs of socks that also gives the required comfort. Not just this, Todd, along with his partner Zach Zelner also work for the betterment of pets & give back to organizations that support & love pets. There are two organizations that these two dynamic individuals are associated with. One is Humane Society, which is widely known as a center for adoption, a vet center & also a provider for educational programs. The second is Ahimsa House that works for pets & humans suffering from domestic violence & provides them with safer places.
Todd Stephenson was recently featured on Forbes in an Interview hosted by famous Entrepreneur, Businessman and Educationalist Romy Johnson where he shares how he became a successful entrepreneur. “Todd believes that the formula to starting your own business is simple: never give up, work as hard as you possibly can, and be open-minded.” Todd’s company PupSocks has been featured on Good Morning America and The Today Show in addition to being the subject of a case study by Facebook. PupSocks is currently one of the largest custom sock companies and is continuously expanding.
Creating a company that offers a variety of innovative products like pet image printed socks, pup blankets, etc. & at the same time give it back to communities that work for precious pets is what defines Todd. He also believes that success doesn’t mean money; it means freedom. Todd says that since he is not tied up in a corporate job, he has the freedom to run his own business & also can control his own life by carving a path towards success.
