👋 Meet Tyler, designer/owner of Misc. Goods! ⁠
⁠
Tyler accidentally started Misc. Goods a decade ago. But the continued growth of the company isn’t an accident. Quite intentional, actually. Talking with Tyler is a reminder of what “success” really means. ⁠
⁠
We recently caught up with Tyler to ask him a few questions. Check out his answers below!⁠
⁠
Q: When was that tipping point moment when you knew you needed to bring on more people? ⁠
A: I was wearing a lot of hats. All the hats, really. Design. Product. Packaging. Fulfillment. Social media. Website management. Etc. I don’t get stressed too easily, so it wasn’t that. It was more rational. Like at some point, you have to realize that to continue growing, I should bring on someone else to pack boxes so I can focus my energy on what’s next. The cool part about growing this way is that I’ve been in everyone’s position who works with us. Literally. So I get what can be frustrating and what can be fun about each role. I don’t think it always works like that. But it allows me to create a more peaceful environment by truly understanding the team I work with. ⁠
⁠
Q: What is Goodness to you? ⁠
A: It’s loving your neighbor like you love yourself. It’s interesting, I think the entire world is trying to figure out how to be good right now. We’re all failing in different ways. But if you look at every person, every situation, as an opportunity to be good, you’ll find goodness in the world. ⁠
⁠
It’s tricky, though. Goodness isn’t about avoiding uncomfortable conversations. If someone’s being a jerk, I think it’s good to chat with them about it. If they’re not open to unpacking it or willing to change, sometimes the good thing to do is not work with them anymore.⁠
⁠
Q: Misc. Goods product you can’t live without now? ⁠
A: The natural deodorant. Without a doubt. ⁠
