My name is J.R. Farr. I’m an entrepreneur at heart and love to create, take risks and be a part of something bigger than me.
Previously
I sold my first startup, College Connecting in 2008.
My second startup, Mojoness, Inc. (MOJO Marketplace) was acquired by Endurance.com (NASDAQ: $EIGI) in Dec. 2012. As CEO & Co-Founder, I grew MOJO Marketplace to 6 million users, 100+ person team with millions and millions paid to digital creators.
While at Endurance.com from 2013-2018, I served as a GM, as well as Vice President of Product. My responsibilities ranged from overseeing my business units revenue, vision, and roadmap. As I expanded my role beyond just MOJO, I moved into a core leadership role at Bluehost. I worked to create the overall strategy for the product and customer experience for our web presence brands which include Bluehost, Hostgator, iPage, among others.
From 2018-2021, I was the CEO & Co-Founder of Weav.com — automatic customer retention software. Weav helped SaaS companies keep the customers they’ve earned. Automatically.
Currently
I’m the Co-Founder of Make Lemonade where we build products like Lemon Squeezy, Dunked, Iconic, and more.
