This is a Forbes interview with Jason and Bradford of New York City-based Fab.com
I don’t remember exactly when and why I started following Jason’s Tumblr betashop but I’m glad that I did. At one point a few months ago, Jason started to publish unusually transparent blog posts about the early steps of Fab and it’s been more than interesting to follow the progress ever since. In this 4-minute video, Jason and Bradford talk about how they turned a social networks for gays into a super slick service offering daily design inspirations at reduced prices.
It’s been truly inspiring to watch Fab move at such a fast pace, always focusing on the attention to detail and excellent user experience. They now have over 600,000 members with over 150,000 different units sold three months after launch.
If you liked this video, you’ll also like the longer version of their story in an interview with Kevin Rose. As Bryce would say, this is required watching on david-noel.com
I sure do hope they’ll start to ship internationally soon, I’m sitting on $100 worth of credit thanks to their invite scheme. If you’d like to join Fab.com for free, here’s my personal invite link.
