Ready to rethink what it really takes to win in business and life? In this eye-opening preview from the Travis Makes Friends interview, Travis brings on serial entrepreneur and investor Mike Lazerow, cofounder of Buddy Media and partner at Slow Ventures, to unpack the raw truth behind “overnight” success. From creator-led brands like Sour Strips and Liquid Death to scaling social media software during the early Facebook days, Mike reveals how distribution, passion, and a “roll the dice and stay on the field” mentality can turn simple ideas into nine-figure outcomes. He shares unfiltered stories about giving office space to Gary Vaynerchuk, investing early in Facebook, and discovering who his real friends were when it came time to promote the book he wrote with his wife, Kass. You’ll also hear how health scares, shifting priorities, and a decision to double down on content reshaped his focus on legacy, generosity, and a “how can I help?” approach to relationships. Don’t miss this powerful preview—hit play now and get a front-row seat to how great businesses, great partners, and great opportunities really come together.
