Tom Shea is the founder and CEO of Adgile, the company turning last-mile delivery trucks into mobile billboards and proving real ROI for every brand on the road.
Five years ago, Tom was ready to walk away. The company had burned $1.8 million, his Series A deal collapsed at the finish line, and his co-founders left. But instead of giving up, he stayed in the game and quietly turned Adgile into one of the most exciting businesses in out-of-home advertising.
In this episode, Tom breaks down how he built a profitable, scalable company by thinking differently about physical space. He explains how their attribution tech works, shares the early moments that almost killed the business, and opens up about walking away from a $7 million deal to stay independent.
