Mixergy fan, Lisa Bruckner saw me interview other entrepreneurs here and asked, “Where’s YOUR interview Andrew?” Many of the books at the library were about young entrepreneurs who built mega-successful companies from their homes or college dorm rooms. When I launched Bradford & Reed, my previous company, I needed to sell ads but I couldn’t reach the big advertisers. She wanted to know how I bootstrapped that $30+ MM/year business and a few other things about me.
So I invited her to interview me.

invited Jeffrey to Mixergy to teach how he thought about the opportunity when he first discovered it and how he implemented it.
Jeff Fluhr and his friend from school got together and created a company called StubHub which they built up and sold to eBay. But, you know, I think it wasn't until after my first real company StubHub that people, I think, thought of me in that light.
In 2000, people had all kinds of assumptions about buying and selling tickets to events. They assumed it was illegal or that they'd get ripped off or that it was a small-time business run by guys
