Hello! On today’s episode I had the great honor of speaking with Andrew Dudum, founder of hims & hers.

hims & hers is a telehealth company that offers personal care products, subscriptions, and over the counter drugs. The company is focused on increasing accessibility to healthcare by lowering the cost and making appointments more convenient.

This episode was quite unique for the podcast as this is the first episode where we discuss the future of healthcare. Some of the topics we cover:

Why the current healthcare system is broken
How he was able to quickly execute his bold strategy
Why he needed to fundraise every 90 days
How humans are alot more alike than different
How he thought about expanding into new categories
Managing go-to-market strategy with vision
Why he decided to go public via SPAC instead of a traditional IPO

The Consumer VC: Venture Capital I B2C Startups I Commerce | Early-Stage Investing

The Consumer VC takes a look into early-stage consumer investing and venture capital. If you are interested in learning about consumer trends, have a b2c business and interested in learning about the fundraising process at the early stage, you have come to the right place.

Mike interviews some of the top venture capitalists in the world that focus on B2C and consumer type companies or have a deep track record investing in these categories such as marketplaces, SaaS, social, CPG and non-tech subscription.

Mike also interviews founders that are building some of the most disruptive consumer facing companies in the world. The conversation usually includes the insight the founder discovered, fundraising strategy, and the pitch.

This podcast also includes bonus episodes. Each bonus episode dives into a particular subject that might not have to due with the fundraise or venture capital, but still would be helpful to founders. For example, a bonus episode on brand strategy or how to construct a board of directors. All bonus episodes will be clearly labeled.
