Products Taken from zero to mvp and beyond

A new category for the fantasy sports market

Dan was hired by FanDuel to help the company engage sports fans watching NBA and NFL games live. In the process, we invented a new gaming category: real-time casual fantasy sports. Initially designed for all-ages in-stadium play, we later saw tremendous opportunity if we could bring the game to at-home viewers. The result was NBA InPlay (download from the app store to play), proven to keep fans having fun and watching more of the game – even weak matchups and blowouts!

Daily fantasy – now with friends!

Ask any season-long NFL fantasy player why they play and, more likely than not, they'll say it's to hang out with friends. FanDuel players found the company's daily format more exciting than season-long, but most games were against online strangers. Dan introduced a way to play the fun and lucrative daily format against friends. FanDuel Friends Mode brings many thousands of new players to FanDuel, and keeps the fun going all season.

Fulfilling K-12 needs at scale

Schools teach students how to be successful citizens, not to solicit donations. Unfortunately, students need more money than schools have – especially for extracurriculars like sports and robotics clubs – but selling cookies is not the best way to get it. Edco's crowdfunding platform empowers students and teachers to raise money efficiently, while learning valuable skills and building lasting connections with their communities.
