Description
In this episode of The Iron Sights Podcast, I sat down with the “Undercover Mayor of San Jose California” Mike Lee. Mike is a 26 year old Entrepreneur who started his first business at age 19. After graduating with a full scholarship from San Jose State, Mike focused 100% on growing his various businesses, assessing new ventures and investing into start-ups and inspiring people. With his early success, you might assume Lee started from the top but that wasn’t the case. In this episode we get into the root cause of his drive and how Mike’s mastery of social engagement combined with mentorship catapulted his success and influence in the Bay Area. Get ready for stories of golfing with Billionaires, networking with the top 1%, entering the weed business and having an all around good time with my new friend, Mike Lee.Timestamps:00:00 Welcoming Mike To The Show02:51 Mike’s “Glow Up”05:52 Growing Up and Staying In San Jose, CA07:08 The Science of Networking10:03 Mike’s First Business14:36 Lessons From College16:45 The Mission After Graduating19:59 Investing Into New Startups21:34 Getting Into The Cannabis Industry23:35 California's Restrictions On Cannabis Delivery Businesses32:09 How Much Money Can You Make In The Weed Business34:10 Three Month’s In The Delivery Business36:36 Future Plans For Mike’s Cannabis Business37:12 Meeting John Fry (Founder of Fry’s)41:32 Getting Invited To Play on The Most Inclusive Golf Course In The World45:50 How Mike Lee Started “Not Toxic” Clothing48:33 Missed Business Opportunities, Lessons & Loses58:35 Why The Next Move Should Be Real Estate59:58 Networking Advice For Young Business Owners1:115:06 Mike Lee’s Mission For People & His Network1:16:53 How To Dodge Political Debates1:19:09 How To Contact Mike LeeFollow Mike Lee:IG: @itsmikelee
