Startup Life Show With Ande Lyons

Founders love to solve problems!While earning his MBA, our guest, Dave Salvant, realized there was a need and a demand for people that wanted to get haircuts, and for small barbershops that needed a tech solution to solve their business needs. Dave solved that problem by launching SQUIRE, an all-in-one platform to power small barbershop businesses and help them maximize profitability while creating an outstanding customer experience.Since its inception in 2015, SQUIRE has acquired over 2000+ partners in over 40 major markets, and across three continents. As a graduate of University at Albany, and a consortium fellow at the University of Wisconsin Business School, Dave's finance background was an integral part of his journey and helped lay the foundation for the strategy and design behind the SQUIRE concept and platform as it exists today. Under his leadership, SQUIRE has made monumental headway in the tech and beauty industry. After Y Combinator, Dave and the team raised over $150 million in venture funding.T
