My guest today is Melinda Wittstock who was dubbed “disruptive” by her grandmother at a young age, and it’s a label she’s proudly lived up to as the enterprising female founder of several companies.
While a business reporter for the London Times in her early 20s, she gained a lot of insight into entrepreneurship and building a business from scratch.
After climbing the ranks of the news media world, she helmed the development of a crowdsourcing app, NewsiT, founded and ran Capitol News Connection, and is CEO and founder of Verifeed, a company that helps businesses leverage social media to grow.
Most recently, she founded Wings Media and hosts the Wings of Inspired Business podcast, where she interviews women entrepreneurs. Seeing a need for podcasters to better monetize their businesses, her company developed Podopolo, an app to help podcasters grow and monetize their audiences.
While she’s always been involved in the world of media, Wittstock sees herself primarily as a problem-solver and innovator, hallmarks of any entrepreneur. In the podcast, we talk about how working from a mindset of abundance, rather than scarcity, is one of her primary motivators.
Now Let’s get better together.
