Max Feller is a co-founder of Hey Jodie, where he leads growth and makes sure an AI that never misses a call reaches the trades and small businesses that need it most.
Before Hey Jodie, Max spent years at the heart of the local-services economy at Bark.com, one of the world's largest marketplaces connecting customers with local professionals. Working across growth and product as the business scaled internationally, he saw at enormous scale exactly how local businesses win and lose work, and how often a single missed enquiry is the whole difference between a booked job and a customer who simply calls the next name on the list. That insight is a big part of why Hey Jodie exists.
He has also co-founded and scaled his own data and analytics products, and brings that builder-and-marketer mix to Hey Jodie. He writes about winning more work, getting found online, and turning every enquiry into a booked job.
