Need to pick up this book now — I appreciate the synopsis as lead-in to the larger discussion here, definitely worthwhile.

Interesting proposition. Seems like a no brainer given the dynamic of things today — the biggest problem is connecting the right candidate with the right opportunity, and half the time it's an awareness problem whereby the right candidate i

Too many first-time entrepreneurs spend all of their time on ideation without realizing that ideation is a qualifier. It's execution that breeds real winners.

Totally agree! We're working on a redesign now that will feature some user pets in the mix on a rotating basis. =)

Thanks so much for the note, Tony! We built this first version to make it easier for pet owners to go directly to their existing friends/ connections for help (boarding, for instance) when they are away. Like you said, pet owners find it di

Very cute pics! We definitely want to feature more user's pets on the homepage. =)

by cjwake 15y ago
It's like you've been reading our emails... Completely agree with both of your points here! We're already talking about ways to allow non-owners to create a more robust profile, and are thinking about how to grow each user's graph beyond di

Excited too! And thanks so much for helping us work out the bugs and start to improve the experience! ;)

Definitely, we're thinking about small nudges to help people through the process, both in completing the profile and in setting your first request or remembering us the next time you do need help.

Nice! Thanks so much for the note - definitely encourage you to hit up your pet owning friends, as it is awkward/ difficult for them to ask for help, but I'm sure they'd love to know you're willing and able if that's the case. Signup and pi

Absolutely correct, room for iteration, and lots of opportunity yet to be unearthed. :)

by cjwake 15y ago
Haha, yes! We've actually seen some trades for beer, wine or even dinner. So definitely some fun opportunities to integrate gifts. We've also talked to BarkBox about the potential for something pet related in the future, and are looking at

Thanks so much, appreciate the words of encouragement! Though you're not a pet owner, I'd encourage checking it out further if you want to checkout or hang with a pet at any point - I have a few friends that started pimping themselves on Fa

Thanks so much for the feedback, that is a great point. We wanted to make the signup easy, covering just the basics, but you're right that digging for photos is not always the easiest task. We've adjusted this a little in the redesign we're

Thanks for the note, you're absolutely right! I actually used Spotwag last week and ended up connecting with a friend that recently lost their dog of 20-years. They aren't ready for a new dog just yet, but having my dog (Jackson) around for
