Young robot startups could probably learn a thing or two from Blendid. The smoothie-making robot company has been around for a few years now and has pretty much done it all: fundraising from both VCs and the crowd, co-branded partnerships with national-level brands, and installing its robots at both retail and universities.
So it’s amazing to have as our guest on the OttOmate Podcast this week Covahne Michaels, the VP of Marketing for Blendid. In our chat we discuss:
How equity crowdfunding is actually a lot of work (spoiler: Webinars!)
Leveraging Jamba Juice’s brand for consumer adoption
How health inspections are getting easier across the country
How quickly you can get your own Blendid machine up and running
As always, OttOmate podcasts are available to paid subscribers a week before everyone else. If you’re a paid subscriber — thank you! If you aren’t yet, what are you waiting for?
