That was until he happened to meet a guy named Jason Hairston. “I remember him telling me, we are gonna take over the world, and I was like holy crap this guy is serious – David Brinker Brinker went from being a nobody heading up the marketing department of Sitka hunting clothing. In this podcast we talk about what he learned from two of the most successful business owners in the outdoor industry. We also talk about chasing your own dreams and how he woke up one day and realized he had to leave that cushy job title he had.
