In today's episode you'll hear our lightning round interview with Evan Addams, who was employee #2 at a start-up company called, No Wait, which scaled and got sold to Yelp for $40 million.
No wait created an app that was a waitlisting system for restaurants and allows guests to add their name ahead of arrival in order to speed up the time it takes to be sat. Through the app guests can check the wait times, receive texts when their table is ready, and several other features.
In the interview, you'll hear Evan share the lessons he learned from being a start-up to scaling, to getting sold. He also gives a ton of practical advice that will help entrepreneurs scale their companies as well. You're going to love it!
