Matt is the ‘go-to man’ when it comes to manufacturing apparel in China. High Cappin focuses on improving procurement and production processes for their clients that could typically encounter communication, logistical and quality problems with manufacturers. Matt also created the Agile Travel Bag and recently launched it on Kickstarter. Today we address the current state of manufacturing in China and where it is headed in the near future. In the middle of the show, Matt and I talk about the work that it takes to launch a successful Kickstarter and creating a travel bag from idea to releasing it on the market. Towards the end, we will address Matt's productivity levels from living, working and eating in the same building versus being location independent. “You end up thinking that your presence is more important to your business that it is, and really, you’d probably do better if you just got out of the way.” Matt Kowalak 03:12: Matt Kowalak and Manufacturing in China 12:31: Creating a Travel Backpack for the Traveling Professional 13:06: Living and Working in the Same Building 15:39: Launching a Kickstarter 19:31: The Future of Manufacturing in China 27:17: Working, Living, Eating and Working Out in the Same Building 31:36: The Positive Impact on Being Location Independent 35:28: Tips on Building a 7-Figure Location Independent Business “Kickstarter really is for brand building.” Matt Kowalak Honorable Mentions: D.C. http://www.tropicalmba.com/dc/ AliExpress https://www.aliexpress.com/ Alibaba https://www.alibaba.com/ Peter Keller, Founder of Fringe Sport http://theentrepreneurhouse.com/peter-keller/ Eric Bandholz, Co-founder of BeardBrand https://www.beardbrand.com/ Greg Mercer, Founder of Jungle Scout https://www.junglescout.com/ Ian Schoen, DC and Tropical MBA Co-Founder http://www.tropicalmba.com/ Agile Travel Bag https://getagiletravel.co/ Agile Travel Bag Affiliate Program https://getagiletravel.co/pages/affiliates Contact Info: http://www.highcappin.com/ matt@highcappin.com Subscribe to our podcast on iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/entrepreneur-house-live-in/id1069958541?mt=2
