Before the scale-ups, I built my own things. Most of what I know about early-stage chaos comes from here: when you've put your own money on the line, you stop caring about vanity metrics and focus on what brings in customers.
The ventures
PymeFacil — CTO & co-founder · 2010 – 2012
Co-founded one of the first entrepreneurship agencies in Chile. It gave startups and small businesses the full setup pack (legal, strategy, web presence and marketing), so founders could focus on the business instead of paperwork or building a landing page. 93 startups set up; most were still operating a year later.
Guubie.com — Founder & CEO · 2011 – 2015
A marketing automation platform for startups: newsletters, automated emails and landing pages. Part of Startup Incubator Catalyst.
Biletu.com — Founder · 2012 – 2015
A mobile app to pay between friends and skip the awkwardness, with gamification and social features. Santiago, Chile.
SubmitMyStartup.com — Founder & CEO · 2014
A service for startups to submit their profile to 70+ relevant websites, blogs and directories — an intro to investors, journalists and bloggers.
Lanuu.co — Founder · 2015 – 2016
A simple drag-and-drop web builder for non-technical people.
Orange Media Labs — Founder · 2000 – 2016
Ran every project, from web development to web consultation.
