How Pie's 'Block Ads, Get Paid' Model Is Giving Users Control of Ads & Privacy | E2012

E2012 • Sep 20, 2024 • 53 mins

Pie.org’s Ryan Hudson joins Jason to discuss consumer behavior, Honey’s business strategy, Pie’s consumer ad control, legal considerations of ad blocking, and more!

Key Points

  • Entrepreneurs should focus on building and iterating their products quickly, adapting to new information and challenges as they arise, rather than sticking rigidly to initial plans.
  • Ad blockers and consumer privacy tools, like Pie, are evolving to not only block intrusive ads but also to potentially create a new ecosystem where consumers are rewarded for their attention.
  • The rise of remote work has shown benefits, but in-person collaboration can significantly boost innovation, mentorship, and team cohesion, especially in the early stages of a startup.
