Summary
Today’s episode is part one of a super interesting two-part conversation with Sam Reti,a music teacher and the visionary behind the popular online music lesson platform Muzie.Live. In this episode, Sam shares how a college class at Berkeley, countless Uber and Lyft rides and a whole lot of Chipotle burritos helped launch his first business. And why learning when to quit was just as important as knowing when to keep going.
We talk about how his first app idea morphed into a second and then a third, which is the Muzie we know today. We talk about the decision to bootstrap instead of raising investor money. How Sam adapted when his original business idea didn’t pan out, and what he’s learned about growing a customer base organically in the music education world.
Sam gives an honest behind the scenes look at startup life complete with all the messy unglamorous realities you don’t usually hear about.
Here’s my conversation with Sam.
