EXPERIENCE 132 | Tales of a High-Growth Beer Journey - including the Juicy Bits! - with Colin Jones, Co-Founder and Former CEO of Weldwerks Brewing Company
Colin Jones and partner Neil Fisher founded WeldWerks Brewing Company in 2014 in a long-vacant property just off Highway 85 in Greeley. Neil had been a talented homebrewer for years, and Colin was the Director of Technology at Flood and Peterson Insurance prior to the founding. Soon, both were full-time and more at Weldwerks, and they buckled up for a high-growth journey from there - growing production and revenues at an average rate of over 100% per year! An early focus on systems and processes built the foundation for that growth, and represents well Colin’s special sauce throughout his career.
Colin’s entrepreneurial journey started early, with a computer sales and service company called PC Pros in Wichita, Kansas while he was still in college. After a 3 year run the market had changed, Dell had arisen as a powerful force in the industry, and Colin exited the business and moved into his professional career as a Systems Administrator for IMA Insurance in Denver, and later to Flood and Peterson in Northern Colorado. As a Director in the firm, Colin was at the table for all technology decisions, but also came to understand the entire client journey, and built a comprehensive understanding of the business model. He applied those skills and learned many more at WeldWerks, has transitioned out of the company and is investigating his next adventure.
Do you love beer, business, and people? - then you’ll love this episode, and I hope you’ll tune in for my conversation with Colin Jones, and share it with your beer-loving friends!
