Elevator pitch
Erick Young has worked inside one of the largest small business infrastructure platforms on the internet and operates in one of the most commercially dense metros in the country. That combination means he has seen where SMBs bleed money on tools they cannot configure and where no one has built the obvious fix yet. The natural build for Erick is a productized service or lightweight SaaS layer that reduces friction for small business owners at the exact layer he already understands. He does not need to guess what the customer looks like because he has already been inside the machine that serves them.
Unfair advantages
- →Experience at GoDaddy places Erick inside the small business digital stack, giving him pattern recognition on where SMB owners overpay, underutilize, or churn out of tools.
- →Operating in the Los Angeles metro means proximity to a dense, competitive market of creators, agencies, and service businesses that need better tooling and are willing to pay for it.
- →A self-described goal-oriented professional who adapts to rapidly changing environments carries real founder utility: the ability to move fast, recalibrate without ego, and validate ideas before over-building.
Monetizable skills
SMB Digital Products
- →Consulting for small business digital presence
Operational Adaptability
- →Fractional ops roles for early-stage startups
