eCommerce Entrepreneur School: From Temando to Lyres Spirit Co. | #029
In this episode of Add To Cart, we are joined by Carl Hartmann, a serial entrepreneur, co founder of Temando, Compono and Lyre’s Spirit Co. Carl took the shipping and fulfilment solution, Temando from an idea to one of the largest Australian technology companies, having raised over $55m in funding. Compono, an end to end talent solution company, was born from Carl’s own hiring frustrations and his latest venture is award-winning, non alcoholic spirit retailer, Lyres, launched in 2019. Carl shares his learnings from the Temando years, talks about building the Lyre’s brand, and provides fascinating fulfilment insights and tips. We also find out why, for Carl, second is the winning position.
