Episode 230 - Gearing Up Auto Shops with Ashot Iskandarian

Starting a business isn’t sexy. Sometimes, the road to success isn’t either. When Ashot quit his job to grow Shopmonkey, an auto repair shop management software, he had three months of runway-income for his family. He was signing up one customer at a time, creating designs for marketing, and doing live chat support while raising capital to ensure the business continued. In 2021, Shopmonkey raised 75 million in Series C funding, allowing the business to grow into 4,000 shops across US and Canada. In this episode, Ashot gets honest about the trappings of ambition, growth, and taking on risk as a Faith Driven Entrepreneur. At Faith Driven Entrepreneur, we want to connect and equip business visionaries like you to fulfill your call to create and transform the world around you.
