All Jerry wanted to do at the start was to borrow a drill. Now his mission is to connect youths to other cool people nearby to encourage resource sharing and inlock opportunities.

In our first episode with Jerry, we find out how he almost got in trouble with the law while marketing his idea. We get a glimpse into how a proximity based social app might work in Singapore and what it takes to get an idea off the ground. Should you spend a lot of money on marketing and app development? Tune in to know the story of Scratchbac.

Join us every Monday as we hold candid conversations about the above and navigate the starting points of Sales and Business.
