30. Driven to Succeed William Glass sits down with Judah Longgrear, Co-Founder & CEO of Nickelytics who is an entrepreneur through and through. From buying a coffee shop for $5,000 at the age of 19 to starting Nickelytics which just finished the TechStars mobility program in Turin Italy. We go deep into building a tech company, raising money, pivoting, and having to deal with the backlash.
Before becoming the сo-founder of Nickelytics, Judah was the founder and CEO of The Nickel Ride. The Nickel Ride was Eco-Friendly on-demand rideshare paid for by advertisers. This business grew to 5 cities, 60 advertisers, and provided over 100K free rides to South West Florida.
Previous to his most recent entrepreneurial endeavors, Judah enjoyed significant success in the corporate world while setting strategy, leading diverse, cross-functional teams, creative problem-solving, and building partnerships as a business development executive at companies like Salesforce, Netapp and Gartner.
