At age 24 I left my day job and became a bootstrap entrepreneur. Now I'm privileged to own and lead two established companies.

I've learned a lot on the adventure from basement startup to millions in sales. I hope the thoughts I share here contribute something to your success.

About

I’m Mark Aardsma – 32-year-old entrepreneur and business leader. I’ve been responsible for three successful business startups in my adult life. My acoustic panel company has been recognized for two years in a row on the Inc. 5000 list of fastest growing companies in the U.S.

I didn’t start with business school training, investors, or more savings than you probably have. From just me working out of my basement to 30 employees and millions in sales, I have learned a lot about life and business along the way.

On this blog I share those lessons as honestly as I can. I hope what you read makes you think and contributes something to your success.

My current companies specialize in acoustic panels and online audiovisual rentals. I live with my wife and four children in Central Illinois.
