Gaming, Grit, and Giving Back: The Bold Journey of XSET's Greg Selkoe

Greg Selkoe has a storied history as a trailblazer in modern entrepreneurial ventures. As co-founder and CEO of XSET, Greg leads the company's vision of creating a gaming lifestyle brand and media company that redefines the digital landscape, connecting with the physical world. Under Greg, XSET seeks to lead a new youth culture through the connective tissue of gaming. Committed to inclusivity, innovation, and constantly evolving with culture (music, art, sports, fashion, etc.) and those who are at the vanguard of it, XSET's foundation is built on dynamic storytelling, fostering community, and empowering cultural leaders. Prior to XSET, Greg served as Co-Owner and the first President of FaZe Clan, where his strategic vision and leadership propelled the company from $0 to an impressive $36 million in annual revenue in 2 years, culminating in a personal financial exit at the peak valuation of FaZe Clan at $400m in 2020. His journey began by revolutionizing the e-commerce landscape with the founding of Karmaloop, a venture he nurtured from a fledgling startup into a streetwear retail titan, amassing over $1 billion in lifetime revenue under his tenure as CEO. Working with Pharrell Williams (Karmaloop Creative Director) and launching 2 other sub-sites, the Kazbah & PLNDR, which each did over $30M annually at their peak and the first YouTube channel launched by a retailer, KarmaloopTV. Karmaloop is 24 years old and still operating. Passionate about bridging socioeconomic gaps, Selkoe had a self-funded non-profit for 5 years called the FBA, run by Malia Lazu (former head of the Harry Belafonte Family Foundation) focused on diminishing the digital divide and fostering entrepreneurship in underserved communities. He is now launching the XSET Foundation, a new 501c3 organization where Selkoe aims to leverage the influential power of gaming and lifestyle to create inclusive opportunities and empower communities, integrating his business acumen with a strong sense of corporate social responsibility. A Harvard University M.P.P. graduate and 2016 Y Combinator alum, Selkoe has been honored as Ernst & Young's Entrepreneur of the Year in 2012, recognized as one of Goldman Sachs' 100 Most Intriguing Entrepreneurs, and included in the Summit Series Top 35 Entrepreneurs under 35 with an invitation to the White House. He lives in Boston with his wife, Dina (a Harvard-trained attorney and CLO of XSET), and his 2 young children.

Detroit Jerky's Got New Owners—And the Same Addictive Flavor

For starters, for those of you who know the founders of the company and inventors of Detroit Jerky, Scott and Katie Eatmon, we can tell you that they are doing just fine! We've become friends and we are truly honored and thankful that they trusted us with this incredible brand they built. They really nailed it – we were fans well before we acquired the company and as a matter of fact Ally was a Michigan Cherry Bomb taste tester a couple years back! We've been married for almost 28 years and we have two adult kids Tony and Lacey – Lacey is a writer and lives in New York. You can check out her website at www.LaceyCohen.com! Tony is the CJO (Chief Jerky Officer) of Detroit Jerky. We've kept almost everything the same – the jerky IS the same. Scott trained us on the recipes and we've been making it at the same kitchen – Proud Mitten Shared Kitchen in Plymouth, MI. We did change the logo just a bit… we gave the "D" in Detroit just a little bit of Olde English flava to make it a bit more Detroit, but other than that it's the same plant-based, protein-packed, gluten-free deliciousness you've come to know and love. And if you haven't come to know and love it yet what are you waiting for? No – I mean really. WTF are you waiting for. Don't do that anymore. Get some.

James O'Brien has spent over a decade founding, building, and raising capital for early stage startups across a variety of industries. He is the co-founder and COO of an AI startup called Ducky — process and workflow automation software for the Customer Service industry. Prior to co-founding Ducky, James was the Chief Operating Officer of Nashville, TN-based asset manger Valkyrie Investments.

From 4AM Hustles to 4,000 Clients: Michael Chagala's Digital Marketing Empire

Michael Chagala's career began sweeping the server room floor as an unpaid intern at a software development company, later progressing from software engineer to digital marketing then leadership. Michael was an executive at one of the fastest growing companies in the United States helping bring a small energy company from $20 million annual revenue to nearly $70 as part of a small team of Directors. While burning out from 20 years in the corporate world, Michael started Rank Harvest as a side-hustle. He started by advertising on Craigslist and doing all the work himself. He got up at 4am to work 4 hours before his day job, then another hour during lunch, 4 more in the evenings and 12 hours each on the weekends. He did this for several years until taking a leap of faith and quitting his day job; the rest is history. Today, Rank Harvest is a full digital marketing agency that employs multiple full-time, part-time and contract workers. While the company's main focus is direct, long-term engagements with businesses, Rank Harvest has sold over $2 million in digital marketing services on Fiverr. Rank Harvest has served over 4,000 customers since opening its doors in 2018.

Jon Dwoskin's Business Coaching: Cut your Meetings in HALF!

Meetings are too long, and most people won't tell you. The truth is, executives spend up to 23 hours a week in meetings, and half of that time is wasted on inefficiencies, lack of structure, and unnecessary discussions. The fix? Cut meetings in half. Set a clear agenda, assign ownership, and make sure every person in the room knows their role. Start on time, end on time, and keep it focused. When you tighten up your meetings, you'll save hundreds—if not thousands—of hours a year. That's time you can reinvest into growing your business. Look at every meeting and ask: Where can we cut this down? Ready to cut your meetings in half?

Why MECA Athletes See Years of Progress in Just Months

In 2009, David Lawrence took a job as an assistant strength coach at the Poliquin Performance Center and saw first hand the methods of Charles Poliquin (The Poliquin Principles) were producing more results with top professional and Olympic athletes than anywhere else in the world. "Guys were making more progress in one offseason that I had seen most athletes make in an entire college career. In 2012, David started MECA based around the teachings and training methodologies of Charles Poliquin and has taken more than 20 seminars and courses with him. Since the inception of MECA, our coaches have worked with athletes in 25 sports with multiple athletes in the NFL, NHL, professional soccer, and other Olympic Sports. Our clients will on average make more progress in speed, strength, and vertical jump in 3 months than they have in the last 3-5 years training on their own or with another program. In 2015, MECA teamed up with Tri-Covery Massage and Flexibility to create a one-of-a kind performance and recovery center in Novi, Michigan. Tri-Covery is home to some of the best Fascial Stretch Therapists (FST) in the Midwest. It is not uncommon for clients to see more improvement in flexibility and range of motion in one or two sessions than stretching on their own for 12 weeks. Combining that with the personal training and performance side of things, you are getting something truly special when you come into our facility.
