Ellen Saksen - Go Jane Go / Amelia - Pitchwerks #42

Go Jane Go is building specialized tools & apps for a clearly defined community.

This week’s show has a lot to offer across a multitude of topics, but here are two really powerful ones to listen for: the largely untapped needs of specialized communities, and the ways that real struggle can give you perspective.

Ellen Saksen, cofounder of Go Jane Go, is our guest this week.  Her company set out to build a toolbox for rushed and lonely female business travelers.  They’ve just released Amelia, their first app, into no-cost public beta and are encouraging women to try it out.
