Yoon shares his entrepreneurial journey, including failed attempts and success stories. He also discusses his personal life, including how he met his partner and his perspective on life and business. He offers insights into the struggles and triumphs of entrepreneurship and provides inspiration for those looking to start their own business.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\"><strong>Yoon\u2019s Entrepreneurial Journey<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">As a serial entrepreneur, Yoon has an abundance of experience starting businesses\u2014some of which have been successful, while others were learning opportunities. Early in his career, Yoon struggled to find success, but his fortunes changed after meeting his partner Joy, who he credits with having the Midas touch. Since, he\u2019s founded multiple successful ventures, including Outdoor Media Summit and Outdoor ECOM, which was formerly known as Blogs for Brands.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">Outdoor ECOM was an early pioneer in the outdoor industry. Founded in 2011, it was the industry\u2019s first digital marketing agency, and by 2013, it had become the industry\u2019s first Google Ads and Shopify partner.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">While many entrepreneurs are fast-acting and always searching for the next great idea, Yoon takes a different approach to entrepreneurship. He describes himself as a moray eel, waiting for the next opportunity to appear within reach. Unlike most entrepreneurs, he is less concerned with creating a company that dominates the market and instead focuses on creating businesses that allow him to live his ideal life.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">\u201c<em>I think just being super patient and waiting for the right opportunity and then taking advantage of it\u2014that\u2019s kind of my way [the] way I look at my style of entrepreneurship.<\/em>\u201d &#8211; Yoon Kim, (3:47)<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\"><strong>Outdoor Media Summit<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">In 2015, Yoon created the outdoor industry\u2019s first conference for marketers and media\u2014Outdoor Media Summit. The summit is where the brightest minds in media and marketing gather to share their secrets of what\u2019s working and what isn\u2019t, and forecast the future of the industry. Top outdoor brands reveal the next year\u2019s hottest gear, and keynote speakers look into the crystal ball predict what the outdoor recreation economy will look like.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">\u201c<em>It\u2019s cool because in Arkansas, we\u2019re leaders in some of these [outdoor spaces].
