StyleSeat gives beauty and wellness professionals access to online scheduling and makes it easier for consumers to find appointments nearby. Investors include Dave Morin of Path, Uber cofounders Travis Kalanick and Garrett Camp, Ashton Kutcher, Cowboy Ventures, Lowercase Capital and 500 Startups. Not all of them were convinced at the outset, however. It took awhile to convince Silicon Valley guys who go to SuperCuts (aka Chris Sacca) awhile to understand how valuable the marketplace could be. But now stylists are growing their business, typically by 70% in the first 15 months on StyleSeat, gaining an individual reputation, and accessing tools to expand their marketing efforts. To the tune of 200k+ service providers. Jason Calacanis sits down with StyleSeat founder Melody McCloskey to talk about being a first-time founder, what drew her to the business, and how tech is changing for women.
