Show notes
In #19, Michael Sikand (@michaelsikand) and Simran Sandhu (@_simmy_) chat with Sam Rattner (@samrattner), Co-Founder of Vigtory, a sports betting app he sold for $40M to FuboTV in 2021 at age 23. Sam is a college dropout who built a snow removal empire as a Chicago teenager before he pivoted to capitalize on the legalization of U.S. sports betting. More recently, Sam became the Co-Founder and CEO of Showroom, a B2C fashion search engine startup that he thinks can beat Google at its own game.01:00 Sam's Snow Removal Biz02:28 Don't Build For Silicon Valley People08:42 Pros and Cons of Service Businesses11:30 Why Sam Pivoted Into Tech14:00 Being a Second-Time Founder24:54 How/Why Sam Started Vigtory 31:30 The Guy Who Made Vigtory Work45:00 Sam's Golden Rules on Partnerships and Fundraising56:40 Sam's New AI CompanyFollow the show on ikTok: @ourfuturepod Follow the show on IG: @ourfuturepod Message Michael on Twitter: @michaelsikand.
