Mike Silva is the co-founder and co-inventor of the backyard game QB54 (@playqb54). But more than an entrepreneur, Mike is a dad and husband first.
Mike and his brother created QB54 as kids originally as a way to get out of doing Thanksgiving dishes. I wish I was that clever! Now, the football-inspired game hit $1,000,000 in revenue last year and is continuing to grow at an incredible rate.
Mike is living out a childhood dream, but he almost never took the leap. He waited nearly 30 years before capitalizing on the idea. What held him back?
Passionate and straight to the point, Mike reveals how he has grown a side hustle, the balance he creates and sacrifices he makes with family time to grow his business, and the risk involved in entrepreneurship.
