Podcast #10 - Patrick Sullivan
Patrick Sullivan was founder and CEO of ACT! Software and Saleslogix CRM, two companies that arguably produced the most popular installable contact management and CRM software products in existence. Pat joined us to share his experiences in building both companies from scratch and what he learned along the way. Pat is now venturing outside of tech into the realm of health and continuing his phillosophy of “scratching an important itch” by building Jigsaw Health, a company dedicated to helping people put together the pieces of their own wellness puzzle. You can leave questions and feedback for Pat in the comments section of this post or you can read more from him on his blog.
