On this episode of Rep It Up we speak with CEO and Co-Founder of Performance Inspired Nutrition, Tom Dowd. From his early career as a District Manager at GNC to his partnership with Mark Wahlberg in creating a clean and healthy supplement line, Tom discusses the challenges and successes of his life journey.
After starting his career in the supermarket business, Tom made the leap to the health market when he became a District Manager for GNC and ending his career as an EVP, GM, and CMO for GNC .
Then, when he met Mark Wahlberg, everything started coming together. The two became fast friends and bonded over their ideas for a line of all-natural, power-packed whey protein powders, energy bars and supplements for anyone who wants to perform at their best. “Our products are formulated to deliver incredible results, whether you’re a weekend warrior, a pro athlete, or a hardcore bodybuilder,” Tom says. “They aren’t junked up with things you can’t pronounce.”
Tom has seen firsthand that people are more active today and looking for products that help them feel more energized, get plenty of clean protein, recover quicker, get ripped, or drop a few pounds. “That’s why we started with a strong base of core products,” Tom explains.
Tom and the team at Performance Inspired also pledge to donate 2% of net profits to charity and continue to grow the company, as well as, be ambassadors in the supplement industry.
