Ep #155 - In today's podcast episode, I'm joined by Josh Goodman, an Inc. 5000 award winner, 2-time Entrepreneur 360 award winner, and the founder of PourMyBeer, a company with 300+ self-pour locations in 23 countries. Josh developed the company's proprietary self-pour technology to benefit both the customer and business operator. The company is currently expanding with other beverages as it slowly rebrands to PourMyBeverage. PourMyBeer and PourMyBeverage help business operators worldwide increase sales by creating an unforgettable experience for patrons while simultaneously decreasing waste and reducing staffing challenges. For establishments powered by the self-pour technology, getting a drink has never been easier. Guests approach the tap wall with their registered RFID card or wristband. Once the system recognizes the card, patrons can read about drinks on tap. When they’re ready to pour, patrons grab a glass and begin pouring. Altogether, guests can check-in and start pouring in less than 30 seconds. The system charges by the ounce, so customers only pay for what they pour. You can sample as many different beverages as you want at the touch of a button! The company is dedicated to providing reliability and transparency within their technology and business practices. Prior to founding PourMyBeer in 2009, Josh worked in business development with Modis, an IT staffing firm. He was responsible for building the Baltimore Metro market for the company, and landed several blue chip accounts that took that market from non-existent to a top producing segment in a matter of 24 months.  Learn More About Josh Goodman, PourMyBeer, & PourMyBeverage: Visit the PourMyBeer Website: https://pourmybeer.com/ Visit the PourMyBeverage Website: https://pourmybeverage.com/ Connect with Josh Goodman on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joshgoodman9/ Follow PourMyBeer on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/pourmybeer/     Also, please remember to subscribe, rate, and leave a written review for the show if you find value in it.

Ep #150 - In today's podcast episode, I'm joined by serial entrepreneur, philanthropist, VC, and the founder of Kitewire Mobility, Jere Simpson, who recently sold the business for a $1 billion stake in the acquiring company. Jere founded Kitewire in 2007 as a time and materials government contractor. Over the next 9 years, he successfully grew the company from a one-man startup to a 7-figure enterprise with 40 employees before making a bold pivot in 2018 that repositioned the business as a B2B cybersecurity company. Following this pivot, Jere renamed the company from Kitewire to Kitewire Mobility and successfully landed the FBI as a client. Leveraging the prestige of having the FBI as its client, the company saw exponential revenue growth that ultimately led to Jere selling the business for a $1 billion dollar stake in the acquiring company. Jere continues to work with Kitewire Mobility and has gone on to found Atlas Up, a company that creates project, product, and portfolio roadmaps for a client base that include the US Navy, US Army, Lockheed Martin, and SpaceX, among others. Prior to Kitewire, he founded and exited multiple other companies that are highlighted in this interview. Jere has been featured in Forbes, Entrepreneur, Worth Magazine, and CNBC with Marcus Lemonis.
