In this episode, we sit down with Zak Jones, founder of ⁠PermaPlug⁠ and ⁠ShipSquared⁠, to unpack his inspiring journey as a founder. Zak takes us behind the scenes of his unforgettable Shark Tank experience with PermaPlug, and the lessons he’s learned building a consumer brand from scratch.

But the story doesn’t stop there—Zak also shares why he launched ShipSquared, a Dallas-based fulfillment company that powers PermaPlug and supports other growing businesses. We dive into the realities of entrepreneurship: the challenges, the pivots, and the relentless determination it takes to succeed.Beyond business, Zak opens up about the role of his faith in Jesus Christ in guiding him through difficult moments, and the incredible support of his wife, Ali, who has been a cornerstone of his journey.

If you’re an entrepreneur, dreamer, or someone navigating the ups and downs of building something meaningful, this conversation is packed with encouragement, hard-earned wisdom, and authentic storytelling you won’t want to miss!

We help companies expand with the right facilities and match growing brands with fulfilment partners.
