Rising Stars: Meet Otis Knowlton

Today we’d like to introduce you to Otis Knowlton.

Hi Otis, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?
God Woke Me Up out of my sleep & told me to make buttonz. I didn’t take him seriously, so I went back to sleep. Ten minutes later, he woke me up again saying the same thing & the rest is history. I went nuts.

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
The road has definitely been up & down. Being a full-time entrepreneur isn’t easy. Staying self-motivated & keeping your mental health strong can be a struggle. You definitely have to be built for this life

Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I manufacture custom gloss, glitter, and smart buttonz. I also specialize in smart art. I’m most known for being the creator of “Smart Buttonz” smart buttonz are digital pin badges that allow you to store & share digital information from one person to another via a pin badge. I’m most proud of my storefront ..it’s pretty dope… it is covered in murals & art! I put the store together from scratch & seeing people have one-of-a-kind experiences in there is honestly mind-blowing. What sets me apart is I created my own lane by becoming the dopest pin badge button maker in the world. I’m the Dapper Dan of Buttonz.

What was your favorite childhood memory?
When the finest girl in the 4th Grade asked me to the school dance. I was blindsided..she was on my bumper super tough that night.
