How This Realtor Became a Huge Tequila Influencer - Episode 1

 How does a successful realtor make a 180-degree career pivot to becoming a tequila entrepreneur? Joining this episode of The Spirit Guides is Rob Gerard of The Tequila Collective (@The_TequilaCollective) to share his unique story.

From Posting Photos to Growing an Online Tequila Empire

 Like most spirit influencers and content creators, Rob had no intention of becoming a big name in the tequila world. As he puts it, he’s “just a guy who loves tequila.”

But surprise successes turned what was just a hobby and a passion into a fully-fledged tequila empire featuring merch, sponsorships, collaborations with brands, tours, and private tastings.

But where did it all start? Rob joins The Spirit Guides to share his journey from simply posting pictures of his tequila collection online to creating videos and getting a combined one million followers who see him as the go-to guy for tequila recommendations.
