    Bridging the Gap Between K-Pop Fans and Artists | Founder Chat with Kooky CEO, Hami Kim | EP26

    We have a chat with Hami Kim, a former musician and founder of Kooky, the platform that's changing the game for k-pop fans and artists alike. With her own experience as a musician, Hami saw firsthand the challenges that artists face in monetizing their music. In fact, despite her music generating over 1 million streams, she only earned a meager $200. But instead of accepting the status quo, Hami decided to take action and create Kooky, the platform that would solve her own problem and revolutionize the industry. With Kooky, Hami is empowering artists to better monetize their work while also connecting them with a passionate global community of k-pop fans. In this interview, Hami shares her journey, insights, and vision for the future of Kooky. Kooky is part of Cohort 7 at Accelerating Asia: https://www.acceleratingasia.com/port... 👋🏼 GET FEATURED If you'd like to be interviewed during the show, do connect with us on LinkedIn.

    Mobile ordering and payments platform for restaurants and guests | Waitrr COO Tim Davies

    We have a chat with Tim Davies, Co-founder and COO of Waitrr. Waitrr allows restaurant guests to access menus, place orders and pay instantly - all from their phones. No more waving to get the attention of the waiters. It is a mobile payment and ordering solution that increases the capacity of floor staff, increase table turns and increases average ticket size. With a team of 10, Waitrr currently processes USD 27million in GMV. Did you know that 1/3 of a restaurant's expense goes towards manpower? To tackle the manpower issues, restaurants have turned towards tablet ordering and ordering kiosks. But no one wants to input their credit card details on a shared tablet. For the kiosks, they've just moved the human cashier to a machine and these kiosks take up valuable floor space.  Benefits of Waitrr to restaurants: 1. Can go live in 48 hours 2. Save on manpower 3. Increase average check size due to automated upselling and cross selling 4. Improve table turns - faster payment + faster ordering 5. Access to data that they have never had access to before (how often are customers coming back, are they a first-time customer and so on) To discover more about this restaurant technology startup, be sure to watch this episode! 01:14 - Origin story of Waitrr (How did the two Tims meet?) 03:33 - Waitrr Pitch Deck run through 06:07 - Tremendous growth in GMV (Doubling year on year) 06:40 - The Future (restaurant bank, diner data and more) 08:26 - The Market Opportunity (on-premise dining segment is 4 to 5 times larger than delivery) 10:03 - Kiosks vs Waitrr - Difference in cost 11:15 - How much is floor space considered when deciding on an ordering solution? 12:25 - Osman's experience with the Waitrr service 🔗 CONNECT WITH TIM DAVIES: 1) https://www.linkedin.com/in/timdavies81/ 🔗 CONNECT WITH WAITRR: 💻 Website - https://waitrr.com/ 🤝 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/waitrr/ 🔗 CONNECT WITH US: 1) Osman - https://www.linkedin.com/in/osmansing... 2) Razy - https://www.linkedin.com/in/razyshah/ Hosted on Acast.
