Brothers on a Mission: Traverse City Teens Take ActionGlow on the Road
In an inspiring story of entrepreneurial spirit, Traverse City teens Garret and Dakota Porter, who launched their LED lighting company ActionGlow at ages 13 and 16, are hitting the road for their LEDTheWay Grassroots Tour. After achieving national recognition, including a $200,000 investment on Shark Tank and a nomination for Forbes’ 30 Under 30, the brothers are now taking their innovative products directly to indie surf, skate, ski, and bike shops across the U.S. Their tour has not only bolstered sales but has also allowed them to connect with influencers and fellow entrepreneurs, all while managing the challenges of a mobile business. As they navigate the logistics from a converted school bus, the Porters highlight the importance of adaptability, creativity, and their close brotherly bond in their journey to success.
