The roast
Alina grew up selling lipstick, which explains why Chili Piper is just a thousand-dollar valuation painted over a glorified calendar invite. It’s fitting she calls herself a Co-CEO, because after a decade of posting, she’s still looking for someone to actually buy the product.
About Alina
Started my own company before high school to pay for my own education. Sold lipstick and my tech skills. Decided to do a master in computer science because make-up was a low margin businessWent on to create first mobile products with millions of users for Thomson Reuters, Bloomberg, Pearson. Some of them went to be keynoted on stage by Steve Jobs The past ten years have got me back to entrepreneurship and it fits me like a glove. I founded Chili Piper - agents that turn website visitors into pipeline for b2b marketers at companies like Ramp, Cursor, Gong, Monday.com and thousands others. Recently gone through a financial transaction that got us close to a billion dollar valuation On LinkedIn I write about lessons I learned as a woman & mom entrepreneur and hope to inspire others to live their fullest potential
