It was a privilege to be featured on Rho’s podcast and share my experience at Plannery and Leanplum! Watch the full video here: https://lnkd.in/es6de6A5
[NEW EPISODE] This week’s NY Seed Round just dropped! This week, I spoke to Plannery CTO and co-founder Andrew First, a Forbes 30 Under 30 and second-time founder. First-time founders are prone to making mistakes that can be costly. Given that Andrew exited his first company, LeanPlum, in a multi-million dollar deal, we wanted to know how he's approaching his second company based on what he learned from the first venture. What mistakes did he make? How did his first time successfully building a company impact how he is building Plannery? Other things covered in the episode include product testing, building in regulated industries, picking the right CTO as a founder, Forbes 30U30, getting backed by top VCs like NextView Ventures, and more. I might be biased, but this is must-watch material for #startup #founders and investors, especially those in the NYC ecosystem we’re supporting at Rho.
