CEO of Dugout Mugs | Visionary Entrepreneur
Kris Dehnert is a bold, no-BS entrepreneur who turned a wild idea—transforming baseball bats
into drinkware—into a powerhouse brand with over $55 million in sales, Dugout Mugs. With
appearances on major media outlets like FOX & Friends, ABC’s World News Tonight, CBS Morning
Show, the TODAY Show, Good Morning America, and The View, Kris brings a proven track record
of innovation and explosive growth.
A 3X Inc. 5000 honoree, he’s a master of sales, branding, and eCommerce with a knack for
networking, understanding people, delivering unforgettable customer experiences, and
creating products that sell themselves. But behind the accolades is a man who nearly lost
his life—an experience that forced a radical shift in his definition of success. Now, he chooses the
happy over the hustle, builds lifestyle-first businesses, and teaches others to do the same.
With a Rolodex of A-List stories to share, a clear perspective of what matters, and a fire you can’t
put out, Kris has an “unapologetically authentic” approach that keeps it real, keeps it fun, and
keeps it impactful from start to finish!
