On this episode of STICK TALK, the boys sit down with Bailey Bolton to talk about becoming Andrew Tate’s videographer all from a cold email, partying with the Tates, and running a 7-figure media company that puts his competitors out of business.
Bailey is the founder of BoltonX, a full service media company that helps businesses grow with media production and distribution. Outside of running his company, Bailey is also Andrew Tate’s go-to videographer and spends time traveling the world with the Tate brothers, capturing their life on video.
