In the past ten years, the number of self-employed Americans jumped over 10%. The “Gig Economy” is changing the way young Americans look at work and employment.

As the Founder and CEO of Thumbtack, Sander Daniels has helped shape the way this new economy functions. Thumbtack is an online directory that lists jobs in over 1100 unique categories; everything from a DJ for a live event to a nanny for your kids.

In this discussion, Chad and Sander cover how Thumbtack is shaping the future of work, the necessity of setting company values and how to deal with rejection. They also talk about Thumbtack’s origins and how Sander got to where he is today.
