Growing up, Henry was known as the athletic kid who did well in school. But by 9th grade, everything shifted. His grades dropped, he hated homework, and he openly admits he became lazy, with no real direction. At 17, he made his first burger after watching a random tutorial online. It wasn’t perfect, but when his dad gave him rare praise, something clicked. He spent the next six months obsessing over every detail: testing buns, patties, fries, and flavors until he found something special. At 18, Henry and his childhood friends launched Smashers from a small food trailer, backed by a $40,000 loan his parents took from their own savings because they believed in him. And a $150,000 loan (not $550,000). That small food trailer became the place where Henry built his work ethic, learning what it meant to show up every day when failure felt public. Today, his restaurant brings in over $120,000 a month, but the journey came with sacrifices, long hours, and tough risks. In this episode, Henry shares how a simple obsession with making the perfect burger turned into a growing restaurant brand, and why sometimes the thing that changes your life starts with one small decision. 💥 Not Sure Which Business to Start? 💥 Explore free tools that help you choose smarter, compare faster, and avoid starting the wrong business ↓ 🎯 Free Assessment — get matched with the right business 👉 https://accelerator.upflip.com/assessment-welcome 🔍 Niche Finder - search business ideas by budget, difficulty, profit, demand, and more 👉 https://www.upflip.com/niche-finder OR… Ready to actually launch and get your first clients? ↓ 🚀 UpFlip Accelerator — the step-by-step system to launch faster and get clients sooner 👉 https://www.upflip.com/accelerator 🎓 UpFlip Academy - "copy-paste" the top million-dollar service businesses you can start in weeks 👉 https://links.upflip.com/academy-yt More UpFlip Official Resources: 🌐 Visit UpFlip - https://www.upflip.com/ 📩 Join the UpFlip Newsletter - https://links.upflip.com/newsletter-yt 🎙️ Listen to the UpFlip Podcast - https://links.upflip.com/podcast-yt 👉 Check out Henry’s website - https://smashers.com/ Timestamps: 00:00 - Start 00:48 - From wheels to walls 02:00 - Obsession with perfection 02:31 - Calling the shots at 18 03:26 - Operation: Trojan Burger 04:17 - Choosing the right location 04:50 - Let’s make ‘em Smashers! 08:03 - Pricing and margins 09:08 - Everyone’s favorite part 10:22 - Breaking your ceiling 12:27 - Startup costs 13:06 - The payroll math 14:05 - Revenue 14:49 - A breath of fresh air 17:09 - The man behind the laughs 18:36 - Second generation IS the way 19:27 - Pros and cons 20:06 - Leveling up with drive-thru 20:53 - Thinking big since day 1 22:02 - Everything in one place 23:12 - Sourcing quality beef 23:58 - Only the best, no less! 24:48 - Managing food costs effectively 25:47 - Ego comes at a price 27:04 - Is commissary really necessary? 27:28 - Systems make age irrelevant 28:38 - All about pay 28:59 - Joy of Missing Out 29:34 - The food truck side 30:29 - $35K in 30 days 31:01 - Ditching the NEW trailer?! 31:35 - Built for the big leagues 32:04 - “Failing upward” 32:40 - Ignorance is bliss 34:07 - Protect your brand 34:47 - Moment of truth! 35:32 - Failure is your best friend 35:57 - Outro #food #restaurant #burger
