In episode 10 I sit down with Shaul Olmert Co-founder & CEO of Playbuzz and learn how a deep introspective look at his career had him start Playbuzz.

So how does a kid from Jerusalem who started out as a teacher end up creating and running one of the largest content creation companies in the market? It all started back as a teach where he met his co-founder and former student Tom Pachys and years of working at startups, entertainment companies, gaming companies and the growing frustration with where his career path was going. By taking a deep look at himself and his career Shaul realized that he needed to follow his passion and create something, which led to Playbuzz.

Shaul opens up on the many challenges he faced from almost running out of money early on, doubling down when the future looked bleak and how success happened by accident early on. Most impressive though was the loyalty he showed to his first lead investor Danny Cohen from Viola ventures (formerly Carmel Ventures) who gave them terms before they saw any traction and easily could have gotten better terms after their viral success on their demo product led them to see over 20M users on their site within 4 months.
