Ari Zelmanow | The Handshake Economy

I got laid off, so I built two businesses out of Colorado — kettle corn and donuts — growing from farmer's markets to CU and the Air Force Academy. Analog businesses where someone can shake my hand at the end of every sale.

The world has enough dashboards. This channel is for anyone who wants to build something real — a durable business at human scale, where customers know your name and what you earn is yours. Real numbers, real gigs, real mistakes. Just craft, relationships, and the way back to an economy built on trust.

I'm building mine in public. Come build yours.
