CodeChat 027 - Solo, Female Founder Dorin Rosenshine of Outleads

After a short hiatus, CodeChat is back with a fun, outdoor conversation in sunny Seattle with Dorin Rosenshine of startup Outleads.

Dorin is a female, solo founder with an awesome startup idea and a lot of traction already. Her company, Outleads, helps companies better track real consumer interests to make online advertisements dramatically more relevant. The net effect is a big win for companies that see click-through rates that are something like 10 times higher than normal online ads, and a huge win for consumers that have to spend less time looking at ads for things they are not the least bit interested in.
