You’d be an early member of the team and have the opportunity to own the Android launch, end-to-end. We pay very well and there’s tremendous equity upside as well.
Definitely not going crazy. There is a graveyard of startups with similar models to ours. We're going after the college market first because we think we can reach profitability faster than in cities like LA and NYC. No one has taken this college-first approach
Definitely, I think it's still too early to know for sure. Interestingly we only had one incident out of the 300 or so rentals in our first semester. The damage wasn't permanent so we just paid to have the dress dry cleaned. Our policy regarding cleaning is "use good judgement." Because it's peer to peer, there seems to be social pressure; you're much less likely to ruin a dress after you've met the owner in person. And on the flip side, owners won't want to hand over a dress that isn't in good, rentable condition
Totally. Cool stat here -- 80% of the borrows in our first semester occurred between people that had never heard of each other. 12% were acquainted or familiar with the person but not friends. Certainly women can still ask friends to borrow "offline!"
Sara graduated from Ole Miss last month and is headed to med school this fall to pursue lifelong dream of becoming an OB-GYN. We're very sad to lose her!
Ours too! We definitely didn't plan on it turning out like that. William's sister just joined us after graduating Ole Miss and will be a big part of the team going forward. We're very grateful to have her!
What's up HN! I'm David, one of the founders. Happy to answer any questions you guys have and would love to hear any feedback on the app, our marketing or anything really.
