I had the good fortune to meet Marissa Louie of HeroEx as part of the process of becoming a panelist at next Thursday’s Social Media Marketing Conference in San Francisco (#SMMSF) and quickly came to like her smart, entrepreneurial spirit.
If you don’t already know about HeroEx.com, check it out. It’s in alpha, but delivers almost any item under 25 pounds in 1 hour or less in San Francisco. For those of us who remember (and relished!) the Kozmo.com days, you have to check it out.
In addition to her current venture, Marissa previously founded AD-Village, an ad network optimizer and aggregator. I’ll ask her about all that, as well as Her expertise is in online marketing, sales, supply chain management and logistics, and technology systems.
One ways he is savvy is in media coverage – Marissa will be in the August issue of SHAPE Magazine and has been featured on ABC, CBS, Forbes, BusinessWeek, TechCrunch, The Next Web, Bub.blicio.us, GQ Korea, and more.
