🚀 From the Founder: Matt Spettel, CEO and Co-Founder of trainwell 🚀 Amit Matani: How did you know you were onto something with Trainwell? ⚡ Matt Spettel: We went from zero revenue to around $5,000-$10,000 a month quickly. We had good retention from the beginning, but growth was slow because we didn't know anything about user acquisition. When we brought on John, our COO, he tried different channels and found success with influencer sponsorships. That significantly boosted our sign-ups and revenue. In this stimulating interview with Matt Spettel, find out how Trainwell boosted their monthly revenue in just a short amount of time 🏋🏻♂️ If launching your own startup is something you aspire to do, this interview with Matt will give you all of the inspiration you need to take that leap and dive into the founder's life. 🔗 Watch the full interview and blog post here: https://lnkd.in/gE8WUHYk #FromtheFounder #StartupStories #Founder

🌟 We’re shining the spotlight on Change.org - the world’s leading technology platform for social change 🌟 Change.org was founded in 2007 by Stanford University students, Ben Rattray and Mark Dimas, who aspired to connect individuals to activist causes. In 2010, Change.org launched a petition platform, and within a short timeframe, a petition signed to stop the Boulder police from ticketing homeless individuals garnered enough traction that the mayor ordered an end to the practice. ✍️ Since then, through Change.org, over 200 million people have created and signed petitions. Because of the pivotal work he has done at Change.org, Ben Rattray has been named one of TIME’s 100 Most Influential People. 🚨 If you are interested in joining Change.org, they’re #hiring for 11 positions across #Marketing, #Engineering, and #Communication.

💡How can a founder successfully sell an idea to customers before finishing the product? Christopher E. K., the Founder and CEO of Numeral, shares his journey: “It's about showing the gap and convincing them that we can fill it. I had a technical co-founder who helped build the initial MVP, wireframes, and designs. We sold our first product within three months.” 🚀 Getting a customer to pay you upfront for a product that is not even finished is rare - but Christopher did exactly that! 🌟 🎥 Watch the whole interview to see Christopher speak about how he used his background in B2B enterprise sales to sell his vision for the product: https://lnkd.in/gU8g6UNR #FounderStory #Founders #Startups
