From Shake Shack To Mirror, Start-Up Success Stories | Founder Effect Marathon

What do fast-casual chain Shake Shack, online grocery retailer Misfits Market and fitness company MIRROR have in common? Founders who saw opportunity where others didn’t and the ambition to see their dreams through.

Shake Shack began as a hot dog cart in 2001 in New York City’s Madison Square Park by famed restaurateur Danny Meyer. The menu was handwritten by Meyer on a single sheet of paper in about 10 minutes and is about 85% the same today.

Brynn Putnam, the CEO and founder of MIRROR, secured $3 million in venture capital to fund her tech-based fitness company on the same day that she gave birth to her son. In the summer of 2020, Putnam sold MIRROR for $500 million to Lululemon.

Abhi Ramesh landed on the idea to sell ugly fruits and vegetables while apple picking with his girlfriend. In 2020, Misfits Market shipped 77 million pounds of food to more than 400,000 households across the U.S. Since launching in 2018, Misfits Market has expanded to both coasts, has over 1,000 employees and has received over $300 million in funding.

All three founders made costly mistakes along the way, but were able to see past their hardships to take their idea from a dream to a successful business. Watch this Founder Effect marathon to learn more.

When my father died, he held disappointment in his heart. He was 66 and had only just retired from a life of 80-hour workweeks as a successful lawyer, and this next chapter promised everything he had skimped on since deciding to go to law school: family time, creative pursuits, fun.

His liver paid no mind, however, and he died on the morning of May 1, 2020. Four days later, I interviewed Sally Schmitt, bathed in golden Californian light, via Zoom, from the damp and shadowy basement of my parents’ home in Nova Scotia.

As a filmmaker and entrepreneur, I had always admired and studied the chef Thomas Keller, a walking pinnacle of craftsmanship, refinement and success — my father’s kind of guy. I had only recently learned about Ms. Schmitt, a pioneer of the Napa Valley culinary scene and the creator of the French Laundry, the restaurant Mr. Keller made world-famous. Talking to Ms. Schmitt that morning, I learned she held a different kind of wisdom: that success may have other definitions.

Ms. Schmitt died on March 5, 2022. But in "The Best Chef in the World," she shares with delightfully coy candor a message about the rewards of balance and the trap of ambition. I made this film for all of us who struggle “to stir and taste the soup” that already sits in front of us. Perhaps with time and Ms. Schmitt’s example, we will.
