327 Behind-the-Scenes of Launching a New Transportation Startup w/ Bharath Krishnamoorthy

Ride-hailing services like Uber and Lyft aren’t ideal for long distances. They cost too much.   However, trains and airlines aren’t always practical.   Bharath Krishnamoorthy believes his company, Axle Travel, is the solution. Axle is a ride-hailing service for long-distances that's focused on providing fast and affordable transportation to the airport.   In this conversation, Aaron and B discuss the inspiration behind the company, the strategy behind launching in a new city, and why the team came to Pittsburgh.   Before he started this company, Bharath was practicing Mergers and Acquisitions at Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher, a global top-10 law firm.   Claim your $5 credit at axletravel.com/goingdeep   Never miss one of our best episodes by subscribing to the newsletter.   Bharath’s Challenge; Bet on yourself.   Mentioned Incognito: The Secret Lives of the Brain by David Eagleman   Connect with Bharath Instagram Linkedin Twitter   Connect with Axle Facebook Instagram Twitter   Underwritten by Piper Creative A digital agency that provides strategy, delivery, and analysis specializing in a few key service offerings.
