About us

why we started Rally
"ITS OK, WE WILL RALLY BACK"
Rally is small golf inspired lifestyle brand owned by Jose Balderas and his wife Mabeli. Rally embodies perseverance and relentlessness as the founding of the company is based on overcoming a challenge.
In late 2021, I was working as a freelance marketer and saw some success helping influencer brands grow with ads on social media. I poured my heart and soul into making them successful and we did for a lot of our clients.
Unfortunately, as some cases of success go, one of the brand I was helping became drunk off their achievements and the founder's ego began to grow. The founder and I had a huge disagreement about issues unrelated to business, and he terminated my contract without cause and began to tell other clients to do that same. Some of the clients stayed and some listened to him and left. At the same time, I had just found out that my wife was expecting our second child. She was very worried about the situation and about our ability to provide a good life to our kids. I told her not to worry and that its ok, we would 'Rally' back. That is where the idea for Rally started started. September 2021.
We decided to pour everything we had into a brand and give it our best shot. Our goal is to build for ourselves what we had helped build for others. Our biggest difference is that we do not have a big platform and we have to be nimble. More to come on this story.
