As many of you know, I came up in this industry through nightlife. In the early 2000’s, nightlife was defined by prolific nightclubs that burned red-hot, only to close six months later. But that wasn’t the story for Jamie Mulholland. For more than two decades, Jamie has built brands that last, like Cain and Goldbar. Today we sit down to discuss his latest project, Ketchy Shuby, and the elements he’s infused into the concept to ensure that it lasts decades as well.

If someone asked me for only one piece of advice when it comes to entrepreneurship, I would say “build for yourself.” What I mean by that is that it’s impossible to know the minds and the desires of others but we can know ourselves. Serving yourself mercilessly means you’re serving everyone that feels just like you. Jeremy Cohn and Jared Rouben did exactly that with Moody Tongue. From their brewery to their Michelin-awarded restaurant concepts, Jeremy and Jared have done a masterful job of serving an unserved niche in the marketplace–and they’ve been compensated handsomely for it. Today we sit down to discuss how they’ve built such a cult-like following and how we can do the same in our own markets.
