The Morning Formation Podcast

Shoot me a message!

Rob Martinez, founder of All Clear Gear, shares his powerful journey from Marine Corps veteran to entrepreneur creating solutions for transitioning service members by cleaning their gear to military standards.
• Left the Marine Corps in 2017 after not being selected for MARSOC despite passing assessment
• Struggled with purpose during his first 18 months as a civilian, working multiple jobs without satisfaction
• Experienced losing many fellow veterans to suicide during this difficult transition period
• Received a vision during prayer about cleaning military gear for transitioning service members
• Founded All Clear Gear to solve the problem of gear rejection at turn-in facilities, which occurs roughly 75% of the time
• Started by driving hours to clean single packs and evolved into a growing business with clear processes
• Plans to expand to military installations nationwide to help service members focus on their transitions
• Values integrity, positive attitude, and genuine care for both customers and team members
• Recommends building businesses around the "three P's": pain point, pleasure, and purpose
• Believes in remaining authentic and using social media to provide solutions rather than just build influence
