From Actress to CEO with Cooper Harris of Klickly

Cooper Headshot

From actress to tech CEO, Cooper Harris has forged a path unlike any other we’ve heard on the podcast. After her personal experience with online shopping led her to realize there had to be an easier way to purchase products with just a few clicks, she launched Klickly, a smart commerce engine that powers impulse payment online.

Today, Cooper shares her story. We talk about how Klickly is destructing the ecommerce space, and she offers her best tips for fundraising. Cooper shares how her training as an actress prepared her to be a CEO, as well as how her trailblazing grandmother has been an influential presence in her life. She offers her best tips for raising capital and explains why doing market research is essential. She shares what she wishes she had done differently when she started fundraising, as well as her experience and knowledge with biohacking and how it has improved her life.

“I wish that I had not insisted on doing everything myself by myself, frankly. It would have sped up the process and perhaps yielded less burnout in those early days.”
