Creating The Spiciest Dating App On The Market | Jamie Wykes-Hobday | 3

It takes a very specific of person to want to start a dating app today, and an even more particular type that would name it FitFCK. That person is Jamie Wykes-Hobday. Having raised money from investors and more recently a crowd funding round with Crowd Cube, Jamie has spent the last few years building up the dating platform and building a community around what he’s doing. He’s brought together the UK fitness scene for various events and meet ups between them and built connections (as well as partnered) with some of the country’s biggest influencers. That led him to start the talent management division of what he’s doing. We go deep into his story so far, how he got to where he is, his experience with crowd funding a building a community around his business, and the lessons he’s taken from raising investment from the likes of OnlyFans founder Tim Stokely, and Powerlifting Champion Nathanial Massiah.
