GE Ep 192 [2017]: How Toot Founder Sophia Parsa (Forbes 30 Under 30) Built a Vibrant Community & Leveraged IG Gifs to Build Her Startup

Hey everyone, in today’s episode, I share the mic with Sophia Parsa, co-founder of Toot, a marketplace that instantly connects students with tutors and academic assistance via mobile app, founder of Mountaingate, which connects leading entrepreneurs and artists, and is on Forbes’ 30 Under 30 List for 2017. Listen as Sophia discusses how the idea for Toot came about because she had urgently needed a tutor one night in college, how a $25 GIF ad on Instagram skyrocketed their success, how investing in key relationships (including 100 student ambassadors) brought her where she is today, and why her next goal is to create access to education for everyone around the world.
