Hey everyone, welcome to episode 170 of the Antler Up Podcast! On this week's episode I was joined by Tom Kubiniec, president and CEO of Secure It Gun Storage. This was such an awesome podcast to record with Tom. Tom resides just upstate New York where Secure It runs its daily operations. This episode was unlike any other that I have done in the past. Tom brings a lot of knowledge and experience to this conversation about not letting the fear of failure hold you back from accomplishing a goal.   Kicking the episode off Tom explains a little bit about himself, and shares great stories and experiences along the way. From being a professional guitarist and having health issues that forced him out, to then learning sales and starting a few different companies. We discussed how he went from his previous work into what Secure It is today. This was an interesting take since the US military needed a problem solved and Tom was able to innovate and simplify. We discussed what challenges he faced during this time period and how he overcame them. From there he transitioned into commercial sales where now the everyday consumer can benefit from Secure It products. We wrap things up talking about hunting up in New York and getting kids involved.   Thanks again for all the support and best of luck out there and Antler Up!
