Summary
In the coffee world, keeping a customer is the hardest part. So, what do you do when 67% of your customers keep coming back?
Host Justin Starbird and p!ng CEO Rob Witten are joined by Jon Kelley, an EMT, one of p!ng’s first customers, and a highly passionate investor. Jon, a lifelong New Englander who grew up surrounded by Dunkin’, breaks down exactly how p!ng’s robotic pod turned his one-time curiosity into a daily habit.
It’s more than just speed. It’s the "no-friction" lifestyle. Hear Jon talk about:
The moment he realized the "Blue Energy Drink" was better than a burnt cup from the shop down the street.
The tech that ensures your drink is made right before you arrive, thanks to the app's geofencing.
Why the consistency and quality of the robotic drink beats a human barista (even on overnights and holidays).
How his conviction led him to literally show up with a check and inspire p!ng’s crowdfunding round.
This episode shows exactly what product-market fit looks like in the real world, and how a great customer experience becomes the foundation for real scale.
