#1324 An open discussion on improving Mixergy with the founder of Ties.com
I was at a conference a few weeks ago and this guy comes up to me and he says, “Hey, it’s Omar.” And I recognized him because he and I have been emailing since 2010–about six years now.
He says, “You know, Andrew, I think you could be doing a better job on Mixergy.” So, right away he becomes my favorite person, especially when he started to talk about why.
He started to say that companies that are further ahead have different needs than companies that are just getting started and I’m spending a lot of time on the getting started part, which is exactly what I’d been thinking of a lot over the last few months.
We started talking about what it is he thought I needed to add. Then I interrupted him and I said, “Wait, Omar, let’s do it on camera. Let’s record it because I want to start a more public conversation.”
This is how I learned to ask the right questions. I talk to the people who are going to be listening to the guests who I invite on. I want to find out what they’re looking for.
Today’s guest is Omar Sayyed. Omar is the cofounder and CEO of Ties.com and Scarves.com. We’ll talk about those businesses and how he’s come a long way since we first emailed back in 2010.
