Lou Abramowski
Bio
Lou Abramowski or -- as he's known to many -- "Hot Lou" has spent the last 20 years building startups from OurFamilyWizard.com (the biggest family management tool on the web, acquired in 2020) to 8thBridge (MN Cup 2009 Grand Prize winner, acquired in 2014) to today Evergreen (a social media automation tool for SMBs) and Combat Candy (a creatine gummies supplement DTC brand).
He's also helped build gigantic social media communities on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Reddit, TikTok, etc. for billion dollar brands like Jack Link's Beef Jerky and the Minnesota Vikings, to just a couple thousand for small non-profits like Simon Says Give, to hundreds of thousands for obscure children's entertainers like Twig the Fairy.
Outside of the software startup and marketing world, he's a national and world championship ultimate player and coach.
