About this Episode

 
Our guest this week is Nick Smoot, who is a driven entrepreneur, husband, and father who has impacted both the non-profit world and big business. 
After spending 7 years in the non profit world where he was leading state wide initiatives, global leadership development trips, and educational tours in the middle east he redirected his focus to providing answers to complex problems in the business world for both small and large operations. 
The entry into the business world was focused on providing solutions to drive loyalty and engagement of current customers. Wisely seeing the mobile revolution coming, Nick began helping companies understand how to implement mobile solutions with ease. After recreating the marketing and distribution model for an online education company, which lead them to become the leader in their space, he took on his first mobile startup. With this company, he and his partner went from concept to acquisition in 8 months for an 11x return. This landed them in the seat of helping major franchise organizations think through mobile strategy and app strategy.
Now with the another mobile startup, Here On Biz, he is back to the disruptive technology grind stone. 
He has a goal of launching and successfully exiting at least 10 startups with no fails. The verdict is still out if the perfect track record is doable, but nothing is going to stop him from trying.
