We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Alex Shapiro a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Alright, Alex thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Innovation comes in all shapes, sizes and across all industries, so we’d love to hear about something you’ve done that you feel was particularly innovative.
Most innovative thing I have done in my career is help co-found CanMonkey.com, the worlds 1st Can-to-Curb service provider in the United States. We are the company to Automate Trash Day, or some call, “The Uber of Trash!”
Alex, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
That weekly tedious task of taking the trash and recycling cans to the curb and back after emptied is now a task of the past! Sign up with CanMonkey and automate trash day forever!
Let’s talk about resilience next – do you have a story you can share with us?
Surviving through the pandemic and scaling into new markets.
Can you tell us about a time you’ve had to pivot?
There was no technology that was created for a service like ours so we had to reinvest all of revenue into making a customized app that is now on the Apple Store and Google play downloaded by thousands now!
