AB 371: Give the Best Damn Dress Shirt a Share of Your Closet with Ryan Kent President of Mizzen+Main Oct 26, 2021

Show notes

Menswear is an industry not known for bragging. Mizzen+Main is trying to change that. The 10-year-old company claims it makes the “Best Damn Dress Shirt” and on this episode of "All Business with Jeffrey Hayzlett," Mizzen+Main President, Ryan Kent, tells us why. The conversation covers more than clothing – they are killing it with content marketing. Hear how they've enlisted a former NFL quarterback (and current FOX analyst) for a series of TikTok videos that have gone viral. Mizzen+Main isn't just relying on quirky videos though. The company uses well-known athletes and TV personalities to spread the word, even making some unusual in-roads with traditional retail. All this promotion is part of Mizzen+Main's strategy to gain a "share of closet."

Show notes

We've all heard the cliché that leaders are readers. This week's guest on “All Business with Jeffrey Hayzlett” not only believes it, he wrote the book on it. Jeff Brown recently co-authored “Read to Lead,” which is something Brown still can't believe because he says, "school educated (reading) out of me." So, what changed? He began reading books on subjects he was interested in. Brown also said taking notes while reading helped him become a better writer. Besides taking notes, reading taught Brown how successful people D.R.E.A.M. (listen to the show to find out what each letter means). He also offers many unique strategies to help you crack the books for the first time or help you get back into the habit and why you should let your teams catch you in the act (of reading).
