Summary
In this episode of 5Q's, host Michael Greenberg ( https://x.com/gentoftech ) interviews Deuce Thevenow ( https://www.linkedin.com/in/deucethevenow/ ), the co-founder of Recess, a platform that connects brands with community-based sampling and experiential marketing opportunities across a network of 200 million in audience reach. Think Airbnb, but for brand activations in WeWorks, F45s, college dorms, and apartment complexes. During the conversation, Deuce shares how he went from non-technical founder to spending 80% of his time in a code terminal, all without writing a single line of code.
