Life is Good: The Company
Growing up in Boston, brothers Bert and John Jacobs had no idea they would be the founders of an $80,000,000 business with revenues that continue to rise. The youngest of six children, the two brothers graduated from college and decided to take an alternative career route. Together, in 1989, they decided to sell T-shirts they designed out of their car at college campuses throughout the Northeast.
The key to their success was a stick figure that John Jacobs had drawn and hung on the wall of the apartment the two brothers’ shared. The now famous stick-like figure, with his huge smile, was named Jake. With 48 T-shirts adorned with Jake and the slogan "Life is Good", the brothers went to a craft fair in 1994. The shirts sold out within a few hours. From that point on, the company continued to grow and prosper. It now sells everything from clothing to pet products and furniture to toys, each with that touch of optimism that life is good.
