Mark joined WebKite in the summer of 2016 out of his excitement for the advertising technology space and the powerful products WebKite has developed to date. Machine learning and language technologies can do so much still to connect consumers to the products they need, and WebKite will continue to be a major player in that work.

When not at work, Mark can be found serving as his neighborhood’s borough councilman, an advisor to small and family-owned businesses, a sous chef for his lovely wife’s kitchen creations, and the kooky uncle to his cute niece Lindsey.

Mark is a Carnegie Mellon University graduate who has been working as the CEO of early-stage software companies for about five years. His first company, Student InTuition, merged to form Imagine Careers, Inc., a first-of-its-kind career discovery and engagement platform in the human capital space.

WebKite, Inc. is an advertising technology company leveraging machine learning to create the most efficient and specific advertising campaigns on the web. With PPC, Remarketing, and Display products across a number of sectors, we make your inventory soar!

Mark’s Challenge; Find a business in your local community and find a skill or service that could be useful to them.

216 Noah Kagan, Scratching His Own Itch from #30 @ Facebook to Millionaire Entrepreneur

5/31/2017

Noah Kagan
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.
