Mark and John Cronin are a father-son entrepreneurial duo. They’re the founders of John’s Crazy Socks, a unique sock brand that’s been featured by celebrities and influential figures such as George H.W. Bush, Eva Longoria, and Kristin Bell. They’ve also been featured in numerous media outlets like ABC, the BBC, CBS, Fox News, and PBS. This all started in the fall of 2016, as John was entering his final year of high school. Unhappy with his options after high school as someone with down syndrome, he proposed to Mark that they go into business together. John thought that the best way to find a job was to create one! During that first month of business, they had shipped 452 orders with over $13,000 in revenue all while pledging 5% of their earnings to the Special Olympics. Listen in as Mark and John share their incredible adventure.
