The Connection:
I reached out to Skyler on LinkedIn after Wayne Kimmel from SeventySix Capital (an investor in Boomerang) raved about him on his episode of the pod.
Quotes of the Episode:
“Business is my sport. I have so much fun in business.”
“Life gets easier by knowing really good people. You cut lines. Like, if I needed to get to someone within 24 hours, like I feel like I know someone I could work my way to get to that person. But I’m 34 now—it’s taken years...I can only imagine what the rolodex and friendships will look like in 20 years.”
“Startups are the same . . . you have so much doubt. You have so many people that don’t believe it. But it doesn’t matter. I do. And that is all that I need to know.”
Bet You Didn’t Know:
Skyler started networking early. He worked as a bellman at the Ojai Valley Inn as a teenager and collected “shoe boxes full of business cards” from guests he helped at the swanky hotel.
Skyler Logsdon is CEO & Co-Founder of Boomerang, a technology company on a mission to reinvent the way stadiums, arenas, airports, and hotels handle lost & found (item recovery). Prior to Boomerang, he was on the Founding team of Tatari and Co-Founder & CEO of MyKlips.
