I was thrilled when Noah agreed to come on the podcast.
Noah Kagan is a badass internet entrepreneur and the founder of AppSumo. In late 2005, he joined Facebook where he served as product manager for eight months. After being fired from Facebook, he then joined Mint as the director of marketing. At Mint, Kagan developed the initial marketing strategy for the launch of the website. Noah was with Mint.com for 10 months and left the company prior to the product's launch in September 2007 at TechCrunch. After Mint, in June 2007, Kagan founded KickFlip, a payment company for social games. In March 2010 Kagan founded AppSumo, a daily deals website. He now hosts a lovely podcast and gives great marketing advice (and tace recommendations). Noah’s Challenges 1. Text someone close to you for feedback about how to be a better person. 2. Remove one app from your phone that you haven’t used in over a month, or one podcast you have not listened to. 3. Break the next awkward silence you experience.
Pittsburgh’s best conference to Expand your Mind & Fill your Heart happens once a year.
