The Startup Success Podcast

The Startup Success Podcast

This week Bob talks with Nathaniel Talbott, founder of Spreedly, a subscription management service for startups. If your startup works with subscriptions instead of sales, managing those subscriptions quickly turns into a major undertaking. Nathaniel talks about how Spreedly came about, how he bootstrapped from consulting to startup, one way to keep partner disagreements to a minimum, and more.

Bob talks about why you need to be read in on the Free economy, and Pat shares both a recommended book on making your message stick and tips for web designers on the .NET platform.
