Hi! my name is Evan and I'm super stoked you want to learn more about me!
I show people how to build their businesses. I learn a skill, test it with my own companies and share it!
I got my start by selling CDs at 13 years old. I’ve worked as a fry cook, I’ve mowed lawns, built go-peds, managed restaurants, sold mortgages, worked in Hollywood, and sat at a desk. I’ve cold-called, done graphic design, pounded pavement, traded crypto, and worked on an ambulance.
I finally settled down and devoted my life to becoming a firefighter in my early 20’s. It took me 5 years of training, fire academies, and paramedic school to finally land that job.
I spent 8 years of my life answering 911 calls. Now I get to pursue my real passion, which is building businesses and educating.
My first successful company is called Scorch Marker.
I was building a commemorative plaque for the fire department in my woodshop and desperately wanted to burn our motto “together in, together out” into the wood. So I pulled out my wood-burning tool, plugged it into the wall, and screwed the whole thing up!
But my wife and I had found another way. We created a chemical solution that reacts with heat. We were inspired by TH-cam creators! You apply the liquid to wood, apply heat, and the wood burns only where you drew! Pretty cool right? We invented the world’s first wood-burning marker - Scorch Marker.
Little did we know that this was the beginning of something big. We agreed to spend $500 of our savings to see if we could turn the idea into a product. 2 years later and we got into retail, became a bestseller on Amazon, created jobs, and made a lot of mistakes.
It’s the mistakes that are important. Those are the valuable, teachable moments that doers get to enjoy and learn from. They make you stronger.
Building, maintaining, scaling, running, or managing a business is not easy. But it can be done!
That's why I'm here. To teach what I've learned so you don't have to make the same mistakes that I did!
One of the things I feel I was put on this planet for is teaching. I absolutely love connecting with other humans who want to do what I've done, build a DTC company.
That's why I built my personal brand Vanader. I test the things I'm learning with Scorch Marker, make the mistakes, lose the money, succeed then I teach it.
It keeps me sharp, keeps me progressing and most importantly it help me make friends in the space.
Can't wait to hear from you!

I have been thinking about starting a small business on my own and this is just what I needed to push me in the right direction. Thanks for such detailed instructions!
MASSIVELY underrated video
Thanks for the video. I would be interested in a video on how that process of working with an Alibaba or Ali Express supplier looks like.
great video, thanks for sharing the process...also crazy to see how much one can make from selling brushes, wow
I once requested watch samples from China and I paid for the shipping using a UPS account I had at the time. Besides of agreeing to pay for the watches I covered the shipping. I was not expecting them to send it overnight. I was not happy with the bill. My funds were very limited and I decided not pursue any other purchases from China if I was going to be receiving high shipping charges. What is the better way to have samples and items shipped to you without paying so much for shipping?
Vander - what an excellent video! Thank you for being a resource for me (us)!! What are your recommendations for starting the product research if you do not have an established company/product idea? go with the data to lead you to a product, or narrow to a product category that you have expertise in, and what if you don't have that. I'm looking to get a business going to ramp up to keep me busy/earn-money in retirement. Cheers - and thanks!
This is gold, thanks for sharing.
May i ask you a real question..im lost. I need to start make money asap ..i left a very abusive marriage after 23 years. From bones and teeth and lots between being broken ..i was done..i couldn't do it anymore...i let him have everything....i just ran....now im homeless..i have my phone and tablet..
What do i need from website to make it run successfully? Like..if i was to pick a place to set up a website to sell stuff..what would i need ? Like do they drive traffic to my store? How does that work? I use to have a WIX store ...but only traffic i got was others that had WIX store..it was like chain mail?? If you understand that terminology from back in the day? It was phoney? I need a real website...does shopify drive traffic to your store? Besides Shopify what others are there.
i live in the netherlands. Is the process for in Europe the same or kinda the same? Been wanting to start my own business online for a long time now. Just hard to start as you well know.
I don't have any address in US, How can i solve this issue?
I'm on a budget limit, The last time i checked on Incfile it's $35 to file a LLC in Montana state, would you recommend that and if not what state is a better choice in my situation?
would you recommend opening an account with wise or mercury and why?
get a virtual mailing address first its what you need to open the llc and bank account here
@@Vanader where to get it ? incfile has that option but its after you entered your residency address i guess
Hey really appreciate it for the content, I'm not an US citizen and I'm actually a total foreigner also don't have any us bank account, I want to start an Tiktok shop dropshipping business, would you mind telling me step by step what i need to do ? or which videos i need to watch for each step
Have you solved this problem?
