Shownotes

Jon Hayes is the founder and CEO of RewardStock, a travel startup that helps travelers book trips with frequent flyer miles and travel rewards points instead of cash.

 

Before becoming an entrepreneur, Jon was a Wall Street investment banker with eight years of mergers and acquisitions experience at Citigroup. But then, he left Wall Street to launch his first startup RewardStock, which was featured on Shark Tank, where Jon secured an investment from the influential investor Mark Cuban.

 

Jon reminds us that you don’t have to be born extraordinary to solve problems – regular people do the extraordinary every day. So whether you’re considering a high-stress career like investment banking or aspire to be an entrepreneur, Jon has some great advice and insight.
