I’m so excited about this episode for two reasons: First, it’s our 50th show! Wow! Thank you all so much for watching and listening and supporting Startup Dallas. It’s allowed us to bring on some incredible guests over the past few months. Which brings us to the second reason for my excitement: our guest today. Matt Alexander is the founder of Need and Foremost, two stunning brands that Matt and his team are growing like crazy. We find out all about those businesses, what’s coming next, and the winding path Matt took to get to where he is today.
But first, today’s show is exclusively sponsored by the White Pants Agency - offering professional digital and social media marketing services. Located in the Dallas Design District. Cole, Trevor and Brian are revolutionizing digital advertising for some of the most exciting brands in the world. Their services range from social media management to strategy and analytics.
Take a minute to stop by and talk to White Pants about their signature process of Intelligent Risk. They have combined advertising with data science to make sure their customers get the best ROI for every marketing dollar spent. Not only that, but they are firm believers in disrupting tradition. They love taking brands to places they’ve never been before.
So go to www.whitepantsagency.com or start following them Facebook or Instagram. The White Pants team engage with major brands as well as small startups, and have a ton of wild adventures that you can follow. In fact, the other day I saw them flying a drone with a Ben and Jerry’s ice cream truck, I’m sure there’s a great story there.
Matt is such a great guy, willing to help others and give back to this startup community of ours. Reach out to him and connect. I’ll have all the links and the video version of the show at startupdallas.co/50. 50! Awesome.

You can find us on Meetup.com and search BigDOCC. If you’re closer to downtown, this group’s founder, Michael Sitarzewski hosts his Tuesday morning meeting at 1700 Pacific. And for those of you in other parts of DFW, there are coffee clubs now in Downtown Arlington, Oak Cliff, Fort Worth, and Denton. If you hit any of these, you’ll meet and get to know some great folks in the startup community.
Okay, let’s go start something.
