Sean Mourey is a first generation American entrepreneur who has achieved great success at a very young age. He started his entrepreneurial journey at the age of 11, selling sneakers, and then moved on to e-commerce, where he first saw success in creating online stores and learning marketing. He then ventured off with a few partners to create a social connection platform.
After that, Mourey ventured into a new abyss and founded Boathouse with his two partners, Alpha Omar James Dickson. This taught him how to run a business and the ethics behind making money. Sean stepped out into his own world and founded SM MEDIA, which is currently his main focus. SM MEDIA is a social media and cryptocurrency marketing agency that grows brands, individuals, and projects to new heights, maximizing notoriety and taking them to new heights. Sean’s work ethic and ability to get any job done, no matter what it takes, make him stand out from the rest.
Sean’s notable career highlights include running Boathouse with his two partners, Alpha Omar James Dickson; starting SM MEDIA; expanding to foreign countries to deal with marketing in the Middle East; being able to support his parents and take care of his family. He has also achieved multi-seven-figure sales. He took the opportunity when Covid-19 hit to innovate and scale rapidly, built a massive e-commerce clientele through social media and networking, and managed to succeed in high school while building a seven-figure business. He also built international relationships with business owners and networked with fellow entrepreneurs and business owners.
Sean candidly acknowledges the hurdles he encountered throughout his journey. Launching his enterprise with scarce funds, he had to create it from the ground up. As a student, this budding entrepreneur faced the challenge of harmonizing his academic pursuits with his business. His youth also meant his financial management expertise was limited. Nevertheless, Sean’s indomitable spirit allowed him to tackle every obstacle head-on. Contrary to many people’s expectations, Sean not only thrived in high school but also established a 7-figure enterprise. Remarkably, he sealed his inaugural 6-figure agreement during his high school’s 6th period. “The key to surmounting problems is simply taking action; the sun will continue to rise, so you may as well seize the day,” Mourey affirms.
Sean’s counsel for others revolves around perseverance, fully embracing each day, and expressing gratitude for the gift of life and the 24-hour window to accomplish tasks. He emphasizes the importance of courage, an unwavering resolve, risk-taking, placing trust in the right individuals, forming a team, mitigating risks, and surrounding oneself with role models and supporters. He recommends mastering credit, the ability to borrow, and access to capital, being a tenacious dealmaker, captivating others with wit and charisma, maintaining honesty and transparency, adopting a future-oriented mindset, inquiring, believing in oneself, persisting, strategizing, nurturing a passion for business and one’s work, valuing money as a measure of success rather than an end in itself, and embracing the art of business.
Sean and his SM Media marketing agency consistently prioritize future growth. With his sights set on global recognition in the marketing arena, Sean aspires to become a titan in the industry. As an entrepreneur, he plans to further invest in real estate and elevate the SM Media brand to a household name. Additionally, he envisions expanding his business empire to encompass a broader range of sectors.
In a few years, Sean sees himself still in the marketing space but at a much larger scale, becoming a true mogul in the game. He also sees himself expanding into real estate ventures and possibly even buying a few hotels. His brand “SM” will be a household name, ranging from media marketing to real estate holdings and possibly even law firms. Sean’s dreams and aspirations are to truly give back to the community. He’d love to open several homeless shelters and help give back to the less fortunate not only in monetary value but in knowledge, which he believes is priceless.
