This episode is with Joseph Woodbury of Neigbor.com which makes an online peer-to-peer self-storage community that connects people with unused storage space. In this episode, Joseph talks about how he used business plan competitions to get exposure to VCs, how he got Jeff Jordan (eBay, PayPal, Open Table, etc.) on his board of directors, his formula for running effective board meetings, the time he was boarding the flight home to Utah when he got the text from Marc Andreessen to come back and chat about the round, and much more. The Company raised a $10 million Series A venture round in a deal led by Andreessen Horowitz. Ryan Graves, Saltwater Capital and Nate Bosshard also participated in the round.
