Guys, I'd like to welcome Noah Kagan @N.Kagan to the board who has agreed to grace the forum with his presence and do an AMA sometime this week. Woo hoo! Some of you may know Noah from his AppSumo and SumoMe businesses.

Here's his bio:

Noah Kagan keeps doing cool stuff (so he thinks) and eating tacos.

He started his career as a corporate drone at Intel for 14 months, then without any connections he became Facebook employee #30 and then Mint.com employee #4.

Since then he's started 2 businesses (payments for Facebook games and currently AppSumo.com) that have made a lot of money but personally he's made way less than you imagine.

The latest product of his company is SumoMe.com, which are tools to grow your web business. The help you get more traffic (hooray) or convert those people into potential customers (emails). Check it out now.

He's a fan of parenthesis and happy to share what's worked (or not) with his own businesses over the past 7+ years.


It's also his birthday this week as well -- still very much a young dude who's out in the trenches of entrepreneurship, doing great things, and definitely making a name for hiumself.

Ask away!

(PS: It might be 24 hours or so before they're answered as I totally screwed up the date/time on this-- I don't expect him to be dillying here on his Bday.)
