Climate Mayhem - Presented By The Daily Marketer
Business:Entrepreneurship
Brooke Steger is the founder and CEO of Vivian & Co. But more importantly, Formerly she was Uber's General Manager of the Pacific Northwest region, where she took it from 1 to 100 in a rapid speed. Seattle was the 3rd market for Uber, where Brooke took it from an unknown brand to a 10-figure business.
Before Uber, she was the Director @ Lockerz, and is currently on the board of several other startups that are trying to make a splash.
Back to Uber: over the course of 5 years Brooke took the PNW region from a 1 million to 1 billion dollar P&L, spoke @ State Congress to get ride-share bills passed, and built the team from the ground up.
This conversation was incredible. Brooke HUSTLES and pursues what she's passionate about which is a constant thread through her life.
We dive deep into…inception days of Uber Seattle, fixing "supply" & growing an UberX solution, sacrifices of scaling, marketing to drivers & borrowing from different cultures, pop-ups & other experiments during early Uber, and life-after-Uber.
This episode is particularly valuable for a startup founder or marketer who's curious of what the behind-the-scenes of an extremely successful marketplace looked like.
Learn from a leader who is confident in who they are, but didn't know what she was getting into (really) when it was getting started.
