2017-06-08 11

Seventeen years ago, Andy and his best friend, Chris, started their first Supplement Superstore in Springfield, Missouri. The first day in business they sold $7. It took 8 months to have a day over $200. It took them 7 more years to earn more than $695 a month. In their 10th year in business they were able to finally take home $45,000 a year each. They survived those years by any means necessary. Living in the back of the store for the first two years, bartending and bouncing at night, doing odd jobs all the while taking VERY SMALL steps forward.

Today, their companies, Supplement Superstores, 1st Phorm International, Alpine Sports Products, Carbon Fire Nutrition, Paradise Distribution & Frisella & Klein Enterprises which sell, manufacture & distribute fitness, nutrition, and weight loss products, enjoy sales in excess of $100 million a year.

In 2014, Andy was awarded Entrepreneur of the Year by Secret Entourage Academy, the worlds leading online community of entrepreneurs.

"So, I’ve experienced some “success”–at least one definition of it. But if you know me, you know I believe I’m just getting started. Success is realizing your own true potential–and that process is ongoing. You never “arrive.” The key is to get better and better–every day of your life... I’m an entrepreneur, innovator, and businessman to my core. I pride myself on being a regular dude and family man. I’m happily married to Emily, and we have three bulldogs—the best breed on the planet. Their names are Otis, Charlie, and Ellie. I’m an avid car collector and auto enthusiast.

Ultimately, my goal is to be a world-class motivator. I love helping people accomplish their goals and dreams, and my vision is to serve 1 billion people." - Andy Frisella
