This episode of the From Start to Scale podcast features Alex White, Samir Rayani and David Hoffman, founders of Next Big Sound who sold their company to Pandora. Their story is amazing from start to finish and we dive into details that made NBS what it was. The founders share descriptive stories of how they created demand using a PLG strategy (before the term was coined) to how they sold Sony as their first big enterprise deal. We discuss things that worked and things that didn’t in a company story filled with tips and nuggets you can learn from.
