Another unique episode for the show! I've never done this before but thought it might be cool for listeners to hear from someone that I've worked with. I asked one of my customers, Matt Barinholtz (Founder of FutureMakers), to join me on the show and talk about our work together. Maybe some listeners will connect with what he's been building and the challenges that he was experiencing. I was Matt's coach (together with my colleague Daniel O'Reilly) during a 7-week EdTech Founders GTM Bootcamp that included instruction on both marketing + sales. We did a bunch of 1:1 feedback sessions as Matt implemented some of the strategies and drafted a playbook for scalable growth. FutureMakers was founded in 2011 and sparks playful hands-on learning for a future fueled by makers. Basically they've created these cool machines that students can make in the classroom and then get to keep. Here's what we cover: Background on Matt's business; Why'd he decide to do the GTM Bootcamp; What's been the biggest lesson/value from the bootcamp; How has he started to implement the learnings.
