The February StartUp Fayette meeting offers a unique blend of insight and experience, featuring Barry Falcon, one of the founders of Let’s Go Pickleball. 🏓

Barry will share the story behind building one of the area’s most talked-about pickleball facilities, walking through how he identified market demand, differentiated the concept, and turned an idea into a scalable business. Drawing from principles like Seth Godin’s Purple Cow, the conversation will focus on what truly drives customer behavior and how remarkable experiences create lasting traction.
