#1348 How a founder grew his software by wowing customers with support – with Gavin Zuchlinski

Back in 2011, I was really struggling to book guests on Mixergy. Part of the struggle was that I was starting to invite so many people to do interviews that I had a hard time of keeping track. If one person said yes to one date and then another person said yes to the exact same date, it would be a little bit awkward. I was ready for the big time but a little thing like scheduling people was driving me nuts.
I remember going to my mentor this problem and soon after, he sent me a link. He said, “Hey, I found this site. Go sign up for this.”
The site was Acuity Scheduling and it just fixed everything.
I know that this happened back in 2011 because I had a question about the software back then and the founder emailed me back. The founder did my tech support, which was really interesting and it turns out the founder was a Mixergy fan.
His name is Gavin Zuchlinski and he’s the founder of Acuity Scheduling, a calendar scheduling service.
