Entrepreneurship, Arizona Style (Guest: Mike Spangenberg)

Entrepreneurship, Arizona Style (Guest: Mike Spangenberg)

We're switching things up with a very special guest: local legend and State Forty Eight CEO/Co-founder, Mike Spangenberg. PayCompass has developed a strong partnership with State Forty Eight over the years, creating some of our best swag to date. Most Arizona locals know and love the iconic clothing brand but very few know Mike's inspiring journey as a local entrepreneur. His story is one we knew our audience needed to hear. Mike discusses the power of local pride, and how that force ultimately led to the company's launch with the help of his friends. From slinging tees at pool parties to partnering with pro sports teams, Mike gets candid about the hustle and heart behind it all. There were challenges, there were hard lessons—but State Forty Eight (and Mike) have continued to thrive. While the brand has been going strong for twelve years now, Mike's latest passion project is the State Forty Eight Foundation, which PayCompass has been fortunate enough to contribute to. This episode is packed with wisdom and solidifies the importance of establishing community.
