Starting a Mobile IV Business with Kaelan Hayes

In this episode of the Phoenix Prosperity Podcast, host Tim Fergestad talks with Kaelan Hayes, founder of Drip Squad Hydration, a mobile IV therapy company serving the Phoenix area. Kaelan brings a unique blend of military discipline, medical expertise, and entrepreneurial grit to the conversation.

A former Air Force medic and current team member at Mayo Clinic’s radiological care unit, Kaelan shares how a post-holiday hangover sparked the idea for a business. What started as a casual favor to family turned into a scalable wellness brand serving everyone from athletes and pregnant moms to corporate events and golf courses.

Kaelan breaks down what makes IV hydration more effective than sports drinks, how he tailors treatments to specific needs (like cellular detox or immune support), and what it takes to build trust in a highly competitive—and newly regulated—space. He also dives into business challenges, legal considerations, marketing strategy, and the importance of strategic partnerships.
