Episode description

Todd Ehrlich is a former Navy SEAL turned serial entrepreneur. His journey is far from conventional; from dropping out of college to answer the call of duty, to leaving the Navy and creating multiple companies, including the incredibly successful Kill Cliff brand.

Get a firsthand account of life as a SEAL in the high-tension environment of the mid-90s and how this unique experience provided Todd with perspectives that fueled his subsequent business ventures. Learn how he bootstrapped Kill Cliff with just $100,000, and what challenges he faced as he worked tirelessly for nearly four years to perfect the formula for this now-famous beverage. Hear cautionary tales about the pitfalls of venture capital and the lessons Todd wishes he knew earlier in his career.

Not only has Todd been successful in business, but his altruistic efforts have also made a significant impact. With Kill Cliff, he has successfully provided a sustainable giving platform for the Navy SEAL Foundation, donating over $1 million to the cause. Be inspired by Todd’s Rule 1 Ventures Studio initiative that aims to empower new entrepreneurs with the tools they need to succeed.
