Summary
This week, I had the pleasure of chatting with fellow entrepreneur Drew Miles, who is the visionary behind Tricer USA, a company making waves in the outdoor gear space. In this episode, Drew shares his journey from running his family’s sheet metal business for 24 years to pursuing his passion with Tricer full-time. What started as a side project took years to refine, but now Drew is living his dream life. We dive into his entrepreneurial lifestyle, discussing his quest for freedom and overcoming the challenges of transitioning from a family business. Drew opens up about the struggles and triumphs along the way, offering insights into the dedication it takes to pursue your calling.
Tricer makes gear that is fast, light, and simple. More than that, though, I love supporting entrepreneurs who are making waves and doing cool stuff. Drew came to me with an idea years ago, and I could tell right out the gate this guy was going to be successful. Drew is an innovator, and he is absolutely pushing the limits and building some amazing products.
If you are in need of a new tripod, I can’t recommend checking out Tricer enough. They make the perfect tripod for hunters by hunters. I recently got to play with the new JC tripod, and the innovation in that thing is absolutely nuts. I still run the Tricer AD with the LP pan head for almost everything I do, and that setup is perfect for 99% of what I do.
