Nel gets real about how early side hustles shaped his entrepreneurial grit, why breaking through barriers in Region 8 gave him a chip on his shoulder, and what it took to scale Peddlr from idea to 250,000 downloads in just six months. He also shares how he tackled user trust issues, built a grassroots community that became their biggest growth driver, and what he learned moving from bootstrapping to finally raising investor capital.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Resources:</strong></p><p>LinkedIn:</p><p><a href=\"https://www.linkedin.com/in/nel-laygo-a2486686\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.linkedin.com/in/nel-laygo-a2486686</a>&nbsp;</p><p>Website:</p><p><a href=\"https://www.peddlr.io\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.peddlr.io</a>&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Links/Sponsors:</strong></p><p><strong>OneCFO: </strong><a href=\"https://www.onecfoph.co/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.onecfoph.co/</a></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>Hustleshare is powered by<a href=\"https://www.podmachine.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> Podmachine</a></p><p><br></p><p><br></p>","author_name":"Ronster Baetiong and Podcast Network Asia"}
