Success does not come with age, it comes with effort and hard work. Mike Clum has proved that age is just a number. If you want to be successful you can be so at a young age as well. Mike started with making videos on his phone. Then he realized he was pretty good at it. So he decided to do it professionally. He dropped out of college and bought a $600 camera.
He opened Clum Creative which became a B2B creative services company that serves marketers, entrepreneurs, and in-house creatives as a partner for producing video and animation content. Now Clum Creative has 700 clients spread out across the US, with over 25 full-time staff. Its 5-year growth rate is a remarkable 1,000%.
Mike was a teenager when he started. He opened Clum Creative in 2011 when animation was still an untapped niche. Videos hadn’t become the staple content. With the onset of social media apps and their popularity videos became the best form of Content.
