The Top Entrepreneurs In Money, Marketing, Business And Life

I founded Lemon.io (previous name Coding Ninjas) in 2015 with an idea to build an Uber for web development. You post a project, and the next available (pre-vetted) developer picks it up. Previously I had 2 failed attempts to build businesses: AdSense for images and local classified in Ukraine. Before that, I was the head of sales in a 100-person SEM agency.

Starting my first venture at the age of 20 showed me incredible highs and crushing lows (eating PB&J for every meal). Gained a ton of skills doing door to door, cold calling, and managing a team of 30 commission only sales reps. After pursuing a few other ventures in this realm, I gained a lot of knowledge about growing sales, building teams and measuring success. Taking this knowledge, I co-founded FiveRings Marketing where we help SaaS companies grow their revenue by booking meetings with decision makers in their industry.

I started off as a car service driver and worked my way through school and started a SaaS company
