In this episode I talk with Bill Mitchell of Billiam Jeans.
Discussing everything between teaching himself to sew and starting operations in his parents' basement eight years ago, to where he is now with a brick and mortar shop in Greenville, South Carolina and wholesale accounts stretching as far as London.
Learning numerous lessons about business and life along the way, Bill shares stories of mistakes made in the early years of honing his craft and the challenges he continues to face as the company grows.
Bill discusses the people that have inspired him, advice he has for others and the incredible vision he has in mind for the success and future of Billiam Jeans.
