Ep 108: Interview with Scott Chesrown, Chief Revenue Officer at Vroom
This is an interview you don't want to miss because it's not often that you get to speak with or hear from an entrepreneur that helped start and grow a company to $1 billion in annual revenues in less than 4 years but that's exactly what Scott and his co-founders at Vroom have done. Vroom is an amazing company that is bringing serious innovation to the $1 trillion used car/truck market.
Every year in the US, more than 40 million used cars/trucks are bought or sold except most people don't enjoy the experience. Driving around to multiple used car lots then haggling over prices then filling out tons of paperwork is just a miserable way to waste a few weekends. Not to mention if you have to trade in your car and we know most of us are not getting a fair offer from a dealer. Vroom takes away all the hassle. As the consumer you simply go to their beautiful website, search for your dream car, buy it (save an average of 8%), fill out the online paperwork and then wait for your new car or truck to show up at your house. Shipping is free and there's a 7-day free return policy. Vroom will even buy your current car/truck sight unseen...you just have to upload some pictures and scan the VIN# using their mobile app. Vroom really makes the entire process as quick and easy as possible because not only do they understand the car market but they also understand technology and logistics.
In this incredible interview I spoke with Scott Chesrown, co-founder of Vroom on what it takes to build a $1 billion revenue company, what it was like in the early days of Vroom, how they were able to raise a $7 million seed round and more than $200 million to date, which NFL Hall of Fame QB is an early investor, how they scaled the company so quickly despite many challenges, the importance of building an amazing team with a shared vision, why the customer experience is such a critical part of the growth strategy, how the company plans to double revenues over the next year and so much more.
The next time you're ready to buy a used car/truck, I strongly suggest you check out Vroom.com
Thanks for listening.
