Jason is the Co-Founder/CEO of Comparably, the Entrepreneur in Residence for the City of LA, & host of "Startups Uncensored" where he's interviewed top CEOs from Zillow, Docusign, Task rabbit, Survey Monkey and many more. He founded Docstoc & sold it to Intuit and is a frequent contributor to WSJ & Forbes. He is in the eye of the storm when it comes to Silicon Beach and tech start ups and is very influential in the tech space. In this engaging interview, Jason talks about growth hacks for start up businesses and gives us an inside look at the rarified air of venture capital, Silicon Valley and what it takes to build a start up, scale smartly and exit at a viable valuation. In all businesses Jason says, “working smarter is not working less. It's working hard on the things that matter.” I could not agree with him more. If you are going to succeed in tech or any other business you will need to be relentless, persistent, enthusiastic, efficient, quick to adapt and pivot and consistently working hard on the right things.

Jason Nazar is the co-founder and CEO of Comparably, a young website that's trying to make workplace compensation transparent! Want to learn how much you should be getting paid? Of course! We all want that! Jason is here to talk about how he is growing the site to become THE go-to destination for learning about salary and compensation and, simultaneously demystifying our awareness around much we can and should be making. Jason knows how to build successful businesses, as an active tech entrepreneur and investor. Before Comparably, he founded Docstoc, the largest content site to help small businesses which he later sold to Intuit. He also created Startups Uncensored, the longest running and most widely attended tech gathering in SoCal. In the interview we discuss why is it SO hard for us to talk about our salaries?

And the WRONG moves he made that helped him build a business RIGHT. For more information visit www.somoneypodcast.com.
