After starting CheapCheapCheap to understand the consumer behavior and trends, I decided to get into the hyperlocal area in 2009. There is lots and lots of competition in the area, how is your firm different from the others? We rode the recession wave, as all people became bargain hunters.

From 2007 to 2009 I added a lot of icons and made minor improvements. In 2009 I launched version 2 and asked the talented designers at TurboMilk to do a logo. In 2011 I talked to a friend, Steffen Thilsted , who asked me if we should join a startup-competition called VentureCup together. So it really got a good start.

Content, of course, is the same!]. Competition: Chegg (has raised $144 in debt and equity)—estimated by Steven Carpenter ( TechCrunch ) to be 10x more unique visitors than BookRenter (during peak book renting seasons) with nearly $140mm in revenues for 2010.

After directing a film in 2009, I wanted to get back into the design industry. So in October 2010, I evaluated the competitive landscape and realized that there weren’t any app companies out there focused on what I thought mattered the most: the brand, the look, and the experience a client would have with an app.
