ActionGlow<\/a> , now a company that puts LED lights on sporting equipment, in 2011 while snow boarding at Mt. Holiday in Traverse City.<\/p>\nThe brothers were just teenagers at the time.<\/p>\n
Since then, they’ve grown the business, even appearing on shark tank in 2022, striking a deal with Robert Herjavec.<\/p>\n
Friday evening, the Porters were back at Mt. Holiday to host a kickoff party before hitting the road on a national tour, traveling the country to connect with store owners.<\/p>\n
They’ll be taking the trip in a bus they’ve transformed into an RV. <\/p>\n
“Our school bus, we’ve been building it out for over eight years now,” said Dakota Porter, ActionGlow Co-Founder. “We’re doing a national tour around the country, going back to the grassroots way of selling. So we’re gonna be stopping at mom and pops, serf, skate, ski and bike shops; and selling our product, ActionGlow, to these store owners face to face.”<\/p>\n
The Porters, grateful for their success as young entrepreneurs, will also be stopping at schools and universities along the way to promote youth entrepreneurship nationwide.<\/p>\n
