3. Myron Walker of Link Car Care – Mobile Moves & The Second Shot at App Success
When Myron kept getting stranded with flat tires, he didn’t set out to build a tech empire, he just wanted a faster way to call roadside assistance. Deonna, a nightlife insider, never planned to code an app, she just wanted to stop watching talented DJs struggle to get booked. This episode is a masterclass in turning everyday frustrations into thriving tech solutions, even when you’re figuring it out as you go.
KEY TAKEAWAYS YOU CAN’T MISS
Your “Bad” First App Might Be Your Best TeacherMyron’s first app (Link Roadside, built with an overseas dev team) flopped—but taught him everything about milestones, cultural alignment, and protecting his budget. Spoiler: He now uses escrow accounts for every project.
Start With a “Good Enough” MVP (You Don’t Need Perfection)Deonna learned the hard way: Overloading your app with features = wasted time. Her pivot? Testing demand with a simple website prototype before coding a single line.
The $6.33/Hour Hustle That Built a Car Care EmpireMyron started detailing cars out of his Jeep using clients’ water hoses. His secret? Upselling add-ons (spray wax, interior shampoos) to turn $60 washes into $120+ bookings.
Why DJs Are the Hidden Goldmine of the Gig EconomyDeonna’s aha moment: DJs are drowning in admin work (bookings, payments, taxes). Her app, Vinyl Control, streamlines it all—and solves a problem even venues didn’t know they had.
“Trust ≠ Blind Faith”Myron’s rule for outsourcing devs: “If they’re not asking ‘Have you thought about XYZ?’, keep looking.”
