NextME - John Yi
John Yi is the co-founder of NextME, an app that promises to take the “guesswork out of restaurant waits.” For restaurants, adding a party to the app is easier than pen and paper. Easy peasy. For diners, its simple to see exactly what place they are in line and a close approximate wait time until they are seated. Unlike clunky pager systems, NextME can be downloaded on to cell phones for diners and features an automated system that can be downloaded on either an iPhone or iPad for restaurants. In this episode, John goes over what it’s like to work in the chaotic restaurant industry, what it’s like to pursue the dream of building an app company, and how to stay motivated when pursing one’s dream.
