Manage episode 445688633 series 3556815
Mike Feldstein, Founder and CEO of Jaspr, joins the show to discuss how he transformed bulky commercial-grade air purifiers into stylish, accessible solutions for home use. With a background in disaster restoration, Mike developed a deep understanding of air quality issues and recognized the need for products that effectively capture 99.9% of ultra-fine particles, including wildfire smoke and mold. He initially designed Jaspr for family and friends, but the demand surged during the COVID pandemic, prompting him to take it to market. By focusing on innovation and quality, Jaspr now bridges the gap between commercial and consumer air purification.
In this episode, Mike emphasizes the importance of running a lean operation with small, skilled teams, which allows Jaspr to compete with larger organizations. He also discusses his early B2B clients in the dental industry, where air quality is critical, and how he learned the value of customer service during his time as an Uber driver. Mike’s journey illustrates how diverse experiences and a commitment to solving real problems can lead to a successful business in air purification.
