From Garage Side Hustle to $40M Indiana Economic Engine: The AndyMark Story

Andy Baker, president and co-founder of AndyMark, shares how he and his partner Mark Kurs turned a side hustle born out of high school robotics mentorship into a 50-employee company that sells mechanical parts to over 90 countries and injects more than $40 million annually into Indiana's economy. Andy opens up about the hard lessons of cash flow management, knowing when to delegate, navigating competition with former mentees, and the unconventional secret weapon behind his success — his wife and business partner Mary. From a $70,000 first big win to surviving COVID and eyeing an eventual succession plan, this episode is a masterclass in building a purpose-driven business that outlasts every obstacle thrown at it. 00:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8] - The $40M Indiana Economic Impact Teaser 00:38 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=38s] - Welcome & Guest Introduction 01:19 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=79s] - How Andy Mark Was Born from Robotics Mentorship 02:32 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=152s] - Starting the Business in Summer 2004 03:34 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=214s] - The Market Then vs. Now in 2026 04:24 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=264s] - Running a Side Hustle While Keeping the Day Job 05:28 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=328s] - Losing His Father & Finding New Advisors 06:19 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=379s] - The Decision to Go Full-Time in 2007 08:52 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=532s] - How Roles Have Evolved as the Company Scaled 10:48 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=648s] - Learning to Delegate & Let Go 11:33 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=693s] - Creating a Mission Statement on the Way to Cedar Point 12:41 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=761s] - Hiring Philosophy & Building Company Culture 15:11 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=911s] - The Global Customer Base Explained 16:45 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=1005s] - Selling to 90+ Countries & 14 International Distributors 17:32 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=1052s] - Visiting Distributors in Rio, Istanbul, Taiwan & More 18:37 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=1117s] - The Israel Robotics Moment That Blew Andy's Mind 20:34 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=1234s] - Getting Recognized in a Bathroom in Taiwan 21:24 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=1284s] - Half a Percent Indiana Revenue, 99% Economic Injection 23:42 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=1422s] - Marketing Strategies Then vs. Now 25:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=1500s] - When Your Mentees Become Your Competitors 26:21 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=1581s] - Growing the Pie vs. Fighting for Slices 28:41 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=1721s] - First Big Wins That Still Stick Out 31:07 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=1867s] - How COVID Nearly Broke Everything 33:34 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=2014s] - Why March & April Are Everything for Morale 34:46 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=2086s] - Biggest Business Mistakes & Missed Opportunities 36:18 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=2178s] - The Cash Flow Challenge Nobody Warns You About 37:16 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=2236s] - How Andy Motivates His Team Without Yelling 39:23 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=2363s] - Why He Congratulates Teams, Not Individuals 40:07 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=2407s] - The Tuesday Morning Meeting Ritual 42:13 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=2533s] - Managing Conflict & Demanding Respect 44:02 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=2642s] - Trusting Your HR Manager & Staying in Your Lane 45:38 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=2738s] - The Reality of Running a Business With Your Spouse 48:26 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozgcFfTTtp8&t=2906s] - Did He Ever Dream It Would Get This Big?

From Startup to $1 Billion: The Banker Who Actually Wants You to Succeed

Welcome to Season 3 of Spotlight Podcast ! Meet hosts Courtney Butler & Caitlyn Sheets as they introduce Rob Blume, President & CEO of Community First Bank. In this episode they share how a group of 16 bankers set out in 2002 to build a locally-owned institution where the customer mattered more than the bottom line — growing from a small mortgage company into a nearly billion-dollar bank without losing its community-first mission. The conversation dives into how CFB goes beyond traditional banking by donating nearly $250,000 annually, distributing millions in Federal Home Loan Bank grants, and actively advising small business owners the way a trusted partner would — not just a lender. Rob also opens up about servant leadership, hiring people smarter than yourself, and why the bank's greatest asset has never been its rates or locations, but always its people. 00:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4] — Introduction & Opening Quotes 00:56 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=56s] — About the Podcast & Greater Kokomo Economic Development Alliance 01:31 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=91s] — Meet the Guest: Rob Blume, Community First Bank 02:15 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=135s] — How CFB Gives Back to the Community 03:15 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=195s] — Federal Home Loan Bank Grants & Recent Recipients 04:10 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=250s] — The Founding Story: Why CFB Was Created 05:22 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=322s] — Who's Still Around from the Original 16 06:08 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=368s] — Leadership Style & Employee Retention 07:16 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=436s] — How Employees Give Back & Community Involvement 08:27 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=507s] — Lessons from Starting the Bank as a Small Business 09:57 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=597s] — Why Entrepreneurs Need a Support System 10:51 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=651s] — Knowing When to Let Go & Hire Help 12:46 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=766s] — The Fear of Expanding Your Business 13:59 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=839s] — Long-Term Thinking & The Infinite Game 14:44 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=884s] — Employee Development & CFB University 16:27 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=987s] — Community Bank vs. Big Bank: What's the Difference? 17:36 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=1056s] — What Bankers Are Really Looking For 18:06 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=1086s] — What Happens When the Bank Says No 20:15 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=1215s] — Proudest Moments & Business Success Stories 21:06 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=1266s] — PPP Loans During COVID & Stepping Up for the Community 23:54 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=1434s] — Growth & Excitement Happening in Kokomo Right Now 25:11 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=1511s] — The Hobson Building Investment & Downtown Commitment 27:55 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=1675s] — What Downtown Kokomo Looks Like in 10 Years 28:48 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=1728s] — Why CFB Sponsors the Spotlight Podcast 30:27 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=1827s] — Advice for Aspiring Entrepreneurs 32:20 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=1940s] — Don't Be the Smartest Person in the Room 33:49 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=2029s] — Servant Leadership in Action 35:31 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv6f1W26Nc4&t=2131s] — Closing Remarks & Thank You Stay Connected: Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vision___studio_/ [https://www.instagram.com/vision___studio_/] Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cfbindiana/ [https://www.instagram.com/cfbindiana/] Follow & Subscribe to Community First Bank of Indiana: ‪@CFBindiana‬ [https://www.youtube.com/@CFBindiana] Disclaimer: The views expressed in this podcast are those of the guests and do not reflect our official policy.
