Bryce Bennett is the founder and CEO of Solo, a platform that is bringing tools & transparency to Independent gig worker, optimizing their time, and allowing them to move between more GIGS. They also recently acquired their Seed funding.
Bryce comes from a track record of startup marketplaces, first at Uber Seattle where he Launched Seattle and then eventually Idaho, Alaska, & Montana. He also was GM of Uber Portland where he ran the WHOLE business! After that, he joined as a key leader @ Convoy where he oversaw Convoy's matching process b/t supply + demand.
Enter SOLO….Over the course of 12 months Solo has acquired $5.3M in seed funding, grown to over 2000 gig workers, is providing a critical service to a potential market of 60 M gig workers, while being a FREE platform (Damn!)
This conversation was…flipping sweet. Bryce is a calm but electrifying marketplace leader, it's as if he has an under-current of ambition streaming through his veins b/c this man has gone hard in the marketplace universe.
We dive deep into…Starting at Uber and the opportunity to bring "Uber everywhere" to life, Lessons of "jumpstarting a marketplace" and how he carried that to Solo, The power of data for the gig worker & how SOLO is becoming indispensable, "Marketplace Density" and why you need to hold that factor constant, And how Solo is empowering the "underdog" of the marketplace, the gig worker.
