How Jon Crawford built and sold Storenvy: his tough lessons learned
In this episode, we spoke with Jonathan Crawford, founder and former CEO of Storenvy, an e-commerce marketplace for indie brands. Jon was with the company from day one for six years and learned some hard lessons along the way.
He was kicked out of Y-Combinator on the first day. He built his first team only to let them go all at once. He heard many “no”s from investors. He learned about what’s important to him - what he wants to do as a founder and what he doesn’t. He learned what makes him happy.
When he left in 2016 after selling the company, it was at 30 team members with 130,000 stores open on the platform and millions of dollars flowing through it per month. Hear the whole story in the full episode!
