Welcome back! This is our new season of The Daily Marketer, where we decided to do something special.
Early 2021, startup junky & marketplace master, Ty Wolfe-Jones, pitched us the idea of instead of interviewing founders & marketers, why don’t we dive into the world of marketplaces, the “VH1 Behind The Music” of Uber, Doordash, Rover, and other marketplace legends?
Ty could bring the operations perspective, I could bring the marketing lens, and together we could make some marketplace MAGIC!
Or maybe it’s a little more like marketplace MAYHEM (Dracula cackles in the distance).
Alas, Marketplace Mayhem was born 💀
So join us for this season, where we’ve spoken with over a dozen marketplace leaders & pioneers from Uber, Convoy, Bellhop, Doordash, Rover, but ALSO rising stars in marketplaces from multiple countries, VCs, and more.
Enjoy & please leave us a review telling us how you like this!

No smoke and mirrors or marketing speak, this is no bull shit marketing knowledge to help you reach, engage, and retain your true, diehard customers.
The Daily Marketer is a podcast about pushing through the noise, swimming through the water, and breaking through the surface. Marketing is about compounding breakthroughs.
Not about your customers, but about human nature and what gets us to “make a move” and engage one another.
