#1447 How Jo Overline kept SwingDev from being a one hit wonder

1 hour 6 minutes

How does a startup founder keep his company from being a “one hit” wonder?

Five years ago I did an interview with a founder named Jo Overline who got a lot of press for an app he created called Ugly Meter. It was even featured on the Howard Stern Show. But he never wanted to be a one hit wonder.

A few weeks ago Jo emailed me and said, “We actually have a real agency now…and I’d like to come back to Mixergy to talk about how we did it.”

Today Jo Overline is the founder of SwingDev, which builds web and mobile apps for startups and early stage companies.

Jo Overline is the co-founder of SwingDev which builds web apps and mobile apps and they do everything from the design to creating scalable back ends and they specialize in working with startups and early stage companies.
