Follow the show: Millionaire University #667 Ever wondered how someone can build a multi-million-dollar business just by flipping sneakers? In this episode hosted by Kirsten Tyrrel, Nicolas Malonga shares how he turned sneaker reselling from a college side hustle into Sniperkicks — a full-fledged business.

Whether you’re curious about flipping your first pair or building a full-time income, this episode is packed with tactical steps and industry insight! What we discuss with Nicolas: + Turning sneaker reselling into a business + Early entrepreneurship selling candy at school + Learning analytics and demand trends + Sourcing from outlets, marketplaces, and bulk suppliers + Tracking numbers, margins, and ROI + Avoiding beginner mistakes with credit and reinvesting + Building a lean team to scale + Using multiple platforms to sell + Creating a brand beyond third-party apps + Multi-million-dollar reselling potential Thank you, Nicolas!
