How this EdTech Startup sharpened their message & went from struggling to selling!
Summary
Imagine a tool that could revolutionize how students manage their homework—built not by some big tech company, but by a parent and a 12-year-old visionary. Curious?
In this episode, we're diving into a startup story that's as unique as it gets. A co-founder whose biggest challenge wasn’t just building the tech but navigating the labyrinth of the education market...
Join me as I interview Brent Newton, founder of MyOwl, about the challenges he and his daughter faced in getting MyOwl off the ground.
MyOwl is an app that brings student's homework assignments into one centralized dashboard. The average student today has to use more than 143 apps to get their homework done. Talk about a logistical nightmare! So, when Brent and his daughter told other parents about their idea, the parents couldn't wait to get their hands on it. But when he tried to get the app partners on board and schools on board, it felt like he was banging his head against the wall...
Key Takeaways:
Tune in to hear…
- Why having a great product wasn’t enough—and the game-changing move Brent made to get schools on board.
- The crucial shift in his messaging that turned MyOWL from a “maybe” to a “must-have.”
- The surprising power of community—how being part of a group of other education founders gave him the breakthrough he needed.
- AND… hear all about his experience inside the 3E EdSales Elevation Experience.
