Episode 1: James Amable, Union Crate
from 52 Founders Hosted by Crissy Costa
In this episode you’ll hear about: -Early childhood inclinations towards learning how things are made (no surprise that toys like Legos and Kinex piqued his interest). -How Startup Weekend changed the course of his career and led him to his cofounder. -James’ innate salesmanship. Whether it was half of his lunch or his own drawings, James was selling even back in elementary school. -Why his outgoing personality helps with hiring. -How getting into Techstars made him take the leap to full time entrepreneurship. -How continually challenging himself from a young age gave him the hustle he needed to be a founder. Finally, we’ll end with a few quick fun questions and learn who James could interview if he had the chance (hint: it’s not who you’d expect).
