Your first company is like your first baby.You have this unconditional, irrational love.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
I truly believe there is this confidence gap, at least for me. You have to 'manipulate' yourself to get over it,and I do think it has something to do with being a female. If you live in fear or doubt and have that confidence gap, you are simply not going to achieve your full potential and what you know you can achieve.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
Work does come home with us, but home also comes to work. Our kids are regulars at Eventbrite's HQ in San Francisco.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
Being an entrepreneur can be learned, and that is exactly what I have done. You don't have to be born with it or have had the 'lemonade stand.' But, you do need to have the passion, devotion, conviction, and sheer will and drive to make it happen.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
I studied broadcast journalism at Pepperdine University. After a short career in television with MTV and later on at FX Network, I found my true calling in Eventbrite.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
I think I lead with empathy and connection to our people. I find that the most effective leadership style for me is to just talk and listen. It sounds simple, but it's so effective.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
As founder of Eventbrite, I've interviewed almost every single person we've hired.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
For the first two years of Eventbrite, all the work was done by just the three founders: me, my husband, Kevin, and our chief technology officer, Renaud Visage.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
When we set out to build Eventbrite, we had to face many challenges and come up with creative solutions to get past them. Each time we learned new ways to cope, we became a stronger and more cohesive team.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
My goal is to create one of the greatest companies that's ever existed, and that has everything to do with the people, the culture, and what our core values are versus what we build or how we're perceived out in the market.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
Our platform is self-service, so we enable people to host events themselves. The biggest events tend to be the free ones. We had 100,000 at a salsa congress in Mexico.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
We always had a sense that we were the underdog. There's lots of competition and niche players. But we have every type of event on Eventbrite, whether you're a consumer or you're organizing a bacon festival. Our identity is our users.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
As with any other crucial aspect of a growing business, you need the right technology and tools.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
We live in an experience-hungry society with advanced event technology and broad social reach at our fingertips. These external factors offers an ideal environment for organizers to create a connection with a broader set of people and maximize each interaction with their audience.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
Since the earliest days of Eventbrite, we've made our people core to our mission. Our culture is an ever-evolving manifestation of those on our team. As people join, we believe in earning their trust by demonstrating we'll embrace them and help them grow.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
The beauty of being co-founders with your spouse is that we run our business and family together.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
Being a female head of a successful tech company means that I'm in a pretty niche category.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
I'm a very connected and passionate founder. And I do model transparency and openness and loyalty in my actions.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
Swaying to new beats, hearing old favorites, and drinking expensive beer are ageless pastimes.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
I encourage women who are starting families to think about the five-year horizon. The first few years of parenthood are really hard, but if you stick it out, it gets easier.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
During college, in Los Angeles, I interned all over Hollywood. Development roles appealed to me; they were a perfect blend of business and creativity.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
There has been an intention since day one that it's as important to us that we build profits as much as we build a wonderful culture and a lasting legacy of a great company. We've created this inclusive environment that's very thoughtful in terms of how we can create allyship, how we create mentorship, and what kind of voices are heard.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
Showing that you consistently have their best interests at heart not only motivates your people to do their best work; it also builds goodwill that you may need to draw on when the going gets tough and you have to lean on one another to find the horizon.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
Great leadership and great companies aren't built overnight, and they're not built without capital. And capital can sometimes be counter-productive to building a great culture.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
I've been told many times that I should give up trying to find balance in my life, but I refuse.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
If you can't see an example of what you could be, you really aren't going to have that extra incentive to break through any types of barriers.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
Leading Eventbrite has taught me a lot about how to connect with people to drive results.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
I think there's a fine line, and once you cross it, you are in a dangerous territory of overhyping your company, your service, and your product and sort of under-delivering. But I think we probably could have been a little more overtly confident in the early days.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
I get extremely detail-oriented. In my most stressed-out days, I get way more focused on those details than anyone should be.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
I think there's real value in having a founder CEO. Obviously, I'm biased, but I'm driven by a purpose and a mission and a vision, not just profits.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
I didn't play any extreme sports growing up. I never surfed, and I grew up in Santa Cruz. I was very good at doing what I was told, taking direction, and staying middle of the road. I mean, they called me 'grandma' in college.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
At Eventbrite, we value quality results over everything else. So while working late is acknowledged, at the end of the day, I care more about the results you're producing.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
Whether you're a founder, a leader, or an individual contributor, building a strong team is critical to your success.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
In television, things move quite slowly. It can take years to get a show off the ground.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
Humans want to know the hierarchy; it's important for there to be one leader.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
Four Seasons' legendary brand epitomizes the highest standards for service in the hospitality industry worldwide.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
I am excited to be working with the dedicated Four Seasons board and leadership team to build upon their reputation for industry-leading customer experiences while seeking out innovative ways to leverage technology that will help spur additional growth.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
I don't have just one role model - rather, pieces of inspiration from many different entrepreneurs. One of the great things about being an entrepreneur is that it naturally enables you to build a village of advisors and role models.
Quote by -Julia Hartz
I founded Eventbrite when I was 25 and had exactly five professional years under my belt. Perspective was lacking; idealistic views were not. I really had no idea what I was getting myself into, and I'm beyond thrilled I took the leap from a comfortable corporate career into the abyss of founder-hood and entrepreneurship.
