Original caption

I went from making $24 an hour as a firefighter paramedic to running a seven-figure crafting company… and now I’m documenting the real, unpolished side of what it actually takes to grow this thing. The plan is simple: take my business @scorchmarker from seven figures to eight, and show every step. So my kids, my grandkids, and maybe even you have a blueprint you can follow without repeating my mistakes. If you want to see the real numbers, the real setbacks, and the real work behind building a brand… stick around.
