Pinny is the co-founder of getting paid, which is a credit card reward consultancy for E-commerce sellers. So if you’re selling on Amazon, for example, you should check out that there are a bunch of cool things you can do with credit cards, and we’ll discuss this later on during the episode. But in the meantime, Pinny, welcome to the show.
Pinny Ackerman 0:29
Thank you very much, Yoni I appreciate you having me.
Yoni Mazor 0:31
Sure. It’ll be a pleasure so today’s episode is going to be all about you the story of Pinny Ackerman going to share with us like who are you? Where are you from? Where were you born? Where’d you grow up as you begin your professional career station to station until you’re reached where you are today in the world of E-commerce. And especially with all the credit card rewards and everything, which I think is pretty cool. So without further ado, let’s jump right into it. Alright. Okay, so let’s start from the top. Where were you born?
Pinny Ackerman 0:56
Originally from Baltimore, Maryland. I grew up there and then moved to New York. Finish up so high school there. And so that’s where I met some of my partners.
Yoni Mazor 1:05
Got it. Okay, so you moved to New York at what age of 16. And all along with the whole family.
Pinny Ackerman 1:13
So I’m the youngest of four boys. My brothers were already out of the house. I was the last one home anyway. But yeah, then we moved up to New York, and with
Yoni Mazor 1:21
The parents you moved out with the parents? Yeah. Parents. Yeah. Small, notable your parents work in industries were they involved in growing up?
Pinny Ackerman 1:28
My dad was a rabbi for 20 years in Baltimore. And then we moved to New York, he was involved in like, like social work, mental health type stuff. So personal, personal fitness. Also, my mom’s a social worker, so very much involved with like people, helping people,
Yoni Mazor 1:43
Helping people helping communities. That’s very good, but are you doing, you know, you are your earlier years, were you trying to make money on the side and all by yourself stuff, anything entrepreneurial?
Pinny Ackerman 1:53
Yeah, I used to have always had a couple of side hustles I remember, like trying to sell Matchbox cars when I was like seven or eight years old on the street, you know, put up like, a desk with like mascots first. And then, you know, when I was in school, I would shudder like, you know, so we’re going to get the older kids to bite me about ordered pizza. And then I could sell them to the younger kids stuff like that. Like, you know, a couple of
Yoni Mazor 2:17
Feet I kid.
Pinny Ackerman 2:19
I remember the as you remember, good night before, there was a huge snowstorm when I was a kid in Baltimore, and I lived at the bottom of the hill. And some cars were getting stuck trying to get off the hill. And I remember me and my buddy, we made more money that day, trying to help cars push go up the hill. We were like, you know, 10 bucks here, five bucks here, like pushing them up the hill. I remember that. So yeah, anytime we could at the hospital.
Yoni Mazor 2:41
The money is the question. What do you do? I bought a Gameboy. There you go. Okay. Very cool. Alright, so 16 He moved to New York in graduate high school and what’s your next station after high school? So
Pinny Ackerman 2:53
I was doing like a post-high school program, a learning program down in Miami, where Jaco Portnoy my partner, and I were there who were in camp together as well. That’s how the four of us started. Hey, this penny le Jaco
Yoni Mazor 3:08
Willing to get paid. Right. So the acronym is p y. D, which is the acronym of the
Pinny Ackerman 3:14
The first letters of the founding partner’s names.
Yoni Mazor 3:17
Nice words that perfectly get paid. I love that. Yeah, we
Pinny Ackerman 3:19
It took us but we had to figure out how to put it together. But yeah, it worked out well. So yeah, we’ve honored it. So when I was in high school, Yakov and I were in high school together is the why. And then we worked in a camp where for kids with special needs when I was 1718. Ellie was our division head. He was like our boss, and it led Bravo. So for devotees say, yeah, this for David, or so he was our brother. He’s on his brother-in-law. So we all work together. We knew each other a little bit then. And Ellie Jakob and I were very close friends. And I mean, I’m skipping ahead a couple of years, but I’ll tell you how the company started. But we’ll
Yoni Mazor 3:59
Get to that. Well. I want to get to that soon. So you said after high school, you went for a special program down in Miami, and then what was the next station?
Pinny Ackerman 4:07
So we were down in Miami, I was doing a post-high school program. Then I came back off to New York, got married, and got my master’s degree in special ed, and disability. And I was an administrator for a couple of nonprofits in Brooklyn, worked for a company called Desert desert for a couple of years.
Yoni Mazor 4:25
And what was the mission of that organization? How was it helping we ran
Pinny Ackerman 4:28
Day and after school and summer programs for kids with disabilities or special needs and then I ended up doing a full-time for an agency that had they have programs and therapy programs and stuff like that. So I was very much in the disability and social services like that type of space.
Yoni Mazor 4:48
So let’s start trying to slap a year on this. So when you had to you know, start your professional career so what was your way that your master’s 5005 you graduate you head into, you know, You know, the working world, the workforce, and your environment is helping others, you know, social wellbeing to come to us. So the first organization, you were there from 2005 until one.
Pinny Ackerman 5:12
So I was with them from 2005, after my son was born since 2004 2005, until about 2007, from Alta ovo, and then from there to 2009 2000 2005 2007. Then from 2007, I guess to 2010, I was with that other smaller company called Harmony services where I was an administrator there.
Yoni Mazor 5:34
And what did you do there? What was the mission of that organization is pretty much more or more specialty.
Pinny Ackerman 5:39
So there we had various programs, we had two full time, they have facilities for, for boys and for men and women for and then we had also a medic night program, as well as a full therapy offering. And I was there from 2007, I think till 2010 or 11. That’s when we started paying
Yoni Mazor 6:00
God so first from 2005, or maybe it’s let’s say, 2010, or 11, you were in, you know, social well-being, and all of a sudden, you know, pathways and opportunities, strikes and tickets there. Well, what were those or what transpired?
Pinny Ackerman 6:14
Right. So that was very interesting. So here I am, I’ve been married for five, six years. It’s still in touch with Ellie, we’re good buddies. And Jaco was a good friend of mine. And I know duty a little bit because he was the eldest brother-in-law. And
Yoni Mazor 6:27
In other words, the co-founders, you were friendly with them, you know, for free, before you guys ever did it,
Pinny Ackerman 6:33
Because we knew each other from the camp when we were 1718 years old. So yeah, we’ve been friends for a while. And then. So Jaco was in something called colo, which is like a post-high school, postgraduate married learning program. So like advanced here at Tom unit study. And he just was just about 2010,
Pinny Ackerman 6:51
When Amex had started crazy promos after the market crash of Oh, eight. So then similar to what we’re seeing now, where they’re trying to build up consumer confidence again, and spend. So the credit card companies were throwing crazy bonuses out when you would sign up for a card. So you could get an Amex card, a platinum card and get 100,000 points, and a gold card and get 80,000 points. And if I would refer you to sign up for those cards, I would get 20 or 50,000 points from referring you.
Yoni Mazor 7:18
So unless I may get destroyed 2008 We have the global financial crisis, and things are melting down, to kind of revitalize the economy and get this federal, you know, the consumer spending confidence back on track their credit card companies, which were suffering because it fewer transactions, let’s be fewer fees for them. So they’re saying, well, let’s dig into our pockets in terms of all these rewards, rewards offered to consumers. So there’s going to be too good to be true. So they actually opted into these credit cards and start utilizing them and you know, kind of bounce back. And what all of a sudden, you guys noticed that that was like, oh,
Pinny Ackerman 7:51
so what happened was, they were given crazy bonuses and my partner Jaco Jaco, who had a tremendous network of friends and family, he has a big large family that’s well connected and that you Shiva, he also just his father’s very well connected, everyone connected. So he was getting,
Yoni Mazor 8:07
Let me help out here for the audience are not too familiar with the kind of the Jewish Orthodox world. So Shiva is usually an institution where, you know, Jewish Orthodox, people can come in the study, you know, Jewish Studies, you know, ancient texts, Talmud, or we also call it Gomorrah. So he was involved with that world. And as you know, it is very well connected with a civil war, they call it where the dollar institutions scattered all over. And, you know, it’s kind of a network effect. And okay, so that was a foundational structure.
Pinny Ackerman 8:38
Exactly, that was a foundational structure. And what he was able to do was, he found people in China and Indonesia, who were willing to buy the points. So he found people that are willing to buy these points that he was able to sign up and get for free, essentially. And he would do as he would call me up and say, Penny, sign up for these two cards. And I’m going to give you $3,000 when you get the points, and he was taking the points and transferring to that client, you know, to his clients and
Yoni Mazor 9:03
Reselling. He buys it from me for 3000, maybe 3500 or 4000.
Pinny Ackerman 9:08
Exactly. So the actual the split, Eric, see
Yoni Mazor 9:11
If I can ask those people overseas. What do you think they were doing with that?
Pinny Ackerman 9:15
So they’re using them for travel, the way it works is, and we could get into that, but the way it works with points is that the best value for points is when you use it for a business or first-class ticket. So let’s say you want to fly from New York to China, and business class in the cash price can be $10,000 and might also be 500,000 miles Underhand. So I’ll have the miles but you do, I would buy them from you for $6,000 so I can get myself a ticket. That’s a $10,000 ticket only cost me six. So we’re like, we’re kind of like
Yoni Mazor 9:45
Say there’s arbitrage between mileages is credit card points and there’s an opportunity to kind of get these products and services at a discount.
Pinny Ackerman 9:56
Think of it as like the reverse costume. We go around and collect one Water bottle when people package them up into a case and sell them to people who need a case of water by these points, and then the travel agent will say, Okay, I need a million points in this airline account. And he’s paying us for us to be going to collect them and then solving them and, and the person who has the points is getting a better value because we’re stretching it for that use. Okay? That’s the concept of the point business. So Jaco was doing well, he found these guys, he was calling us up as friends and saying, Hey, I’m going to give us three grands get a couple of cards. And he was doing this, you know, in, you know, kind of like, you know, during his breaks,
Yoni Mazor 10:36
Next week aside, yeah, I’m excited to be on
Pinny Ackerman 10:39
The side. And then he called us up the three of us and he said, guys, I want to, I’m going to give you a payment for the cards you signed up for, but I want you to make this into a business where I need to stop because I’m in, I’m in the school, I’m going to become a rabbi, like, I need to turn this into a business or I quit it and put it all together. So we laughed at him. Because we were like, Jaco, I love you. You’re a good friend of mine. But you’re in like a, you know, post-high school graduate program. And we’re, I have a mortgage and I got a mortgage and kids, like, so. He’s like, Come out to dinner.
Pinny Ackerman 11:13
I’ll lay out the plan, trust me on this. And I’ve known Jaco for a very long time is one of the smartest people I know. So we went out to dinner, and he threw down four envelopes with cash on the table for our payment, and they said, here’s how it’s going to work. One guy is going to do the sales, we’re going to open the site, someone’s going to receive the information and deal with the clients won’t have to deal with marketing, one guy’s going to deal with the fulfilling of the orders. Now, that’s going to do with like the back end.
Pinny Ackerman 11:38
And literally, we bought a couple of laptops. And I remember my old job having a little eight-inch laptop at the time, which was like, very cool back then. And every time I’d hear like, the thing of like an email coming in, it was like, super exciting. And whole Schreiber doesn’t market yet a map of the United States with all the areas that he would start marketing like a hyperlocal, small market, Jewish community type marketing, hey, it’s a penny, and Ellie, and documentary. The guys, you know, the company you trust them was like all network, but a little bit of marketing, like hyperlocal stuff. And he was like, pinging different areas.
Yoni Mazor 12:14
I think he jumped up to a few moments here from that dinner. You guys said that? Yeah, you gave us an envelope of cash, each one will have a role. That’s it. We’re putting our jobs, we have no mortgage. So what was that? Yeah, well,
Pinny Ackerman 12:25
We’ll go to that. So the evolution was, he laid it out. And we said we’ll try it. By doing it on the side, everybody
Yoni Mazor 12:34
I will try to do
Pinny Ackerman 12:35
It’s on the side, right? Well, I’ll do it on the side. So he laid out how we need to split it up so that we can do it on the side. It’s not one person now doing everything. Take a specific role. And we’ll do it while we’re doing our other parts. So like I said, so for me, I have a laptop on my desk, Eliot, his job was to have something small, and then move into we’re doing something small until after about six months, it was getting to the point where we’re like, Alright, there’s something here. I think if we, you know, we agree if we can focus a significant portion of our time and energy, we can grow it. So I believe Ellie was the first one who we said quit his job he came on,
Yoni Mazor 13:12
It has done that that happened when the first one of you guys quit his job.
Pinny Ackerman 13:15
I think it was about six or seven months or so. Okay, okay. 2011, so was read about them. And then after about six months or so I was in full-time. And then Yakov left,
Yoni Mazor 13:28
What was our confidence in the company, we had enough cash flow to have a salary of full-time salary position for all of you guys or did you take a leap of faith or some kind of both?
Pinny Ackerman 13:36
So it was a little bit of both. We had a crazy story I attributed because I’m, you know, a religious do, I can consider Haskell properties, you know, like, divine intervention, there was one story of a client early on, that we got through a referral, who we bought a couple of million points. And instead of sending him a check for 20, or $30,000, he said, Hold on to the money. I don’t want it yet. I’ll let you know when you should give it to me. And to us, that was a tremendous amount of cash
Yoni Mazor 14:07
Flow. That was an SBA loan, you know,
Pinny Ackerman 14:09
Exactly. That’s exactly what it was. But you know, it was it helped us we didn’t have to borrow from friends and family and worry about making payments and making receivables we had $30,000 operating from a loan that was essentially free from one of our clients. And that was, I can’t think of him I’m not going to mention it was obvious but like that was highly instrumental in us being able to accomplish what we were doing without having to, you know, take out outside funding
Yoni Mazor 14:35
Him not even knowing I gave you tremendous confidence to propel forward and looking back was a momentous moment for you guys.
Pinny Ackerman 14:41
Huge, huge moment. And then there were little bits of those, but there was one major one and that helped us. But yeah, I mean, it took a while until we decided that we would do full time but we realized that there was a real opportunity. And we had so many different ways to build on it. And, you know, that’s kind of how it kind of blew up.
Yoni Mazor 14:58
So that was the evolution of how you got started. Okay, now let’s go back, you said you pinpointing the map, you know, micro-communities Micronase. So what was the next step for you to keep rolling in?
Pinny Ackerman 15:08
So we then the size of the community and the referral base, we ended up a lot of it I was in the early days was that hyper-local marketing, and then a tremendous amount of referral word of mouth. So we ended up with somehow, we ended up with a tremendous amount of business in the Syrian Jewish community. We did well by one person, he referred his brother-in-law, and then his, his brother-in-law, and then it was like, triple effects and a ripple effect. So like a whole nother segment of
Yoni Mazor 15:36
The atomic bomb for them as if something’s good, the whole community is on it.
Pinny Ackerman 15:39
It was crazy. That’s kind of like what happened, I think in e-commerce, and we’ll get into that. It was just it ended up being 40% of our business that ended up forgetting about where our advertising was all over the country, it ended up being 40% of the business was just in that market were just exploded was like wildfire. We were partners with some travel agents because we were buying points and supplying travel agents.
Pinny Ackerman 16:03
So we had very close relationships with some of them. And then we started getting requests from our clients, and they’re saying, oh, I’m selling you my points. But I also want to travel from China to Israel to Europe. And we started referring that business out. And about two or three years in we said wait a minute, why don’t we also bring our travel arm into the business, therefore we can handle the point and then also handle their travel and have it all in one
Yoni Mazor 16:30
The point recorded critical points, but also travel mileage.
Pinny Ackerman 16:34
And tie them together. So somebody other points, and instead of taking cash, use it to have our travel, have our book their tickets, and now we’re making money because we buy points
Yoni Mazor 16:44
Their article integration is pretty much in your name, we call it paid
Pinny Ackerman 16:47
360 That was a circle of services. And then we partner with you know, you know, travel agents that offer higher-end services. So what we did was we kept the core business of points, which we do in-house, we have our travel department, which is I would say quasi-in-house, we have a couple of guys with our branded by us that our we work with. But then the other services, anything related to that we started partnering with like, folks, Oh, you wanted a custom trip, you know, honeymoon, we have somebody that we work with, that we trust. And if you want you can use your points. But here’s someone that we trust and knows that business better than we do that was put them in context. And so we started kind of building things.
Yoni Mazor 17:27
So from you know, being able to allow people to sell points, you go in all matured into helping people utilize these points himself if that points, right, instead of selling it to get, you know, they go travel. But then you added another point that makes up where are we saying?
Pinny Ackerman 17:44
So someone can have points and they can use them to either side and get cash or they can use their points to then travel
Yoni Mazor 17:50
Traveling. The third layer is connecting them directly by calling it for lack of a better word than know concierge travel agents.
Pinny Ackerman 17:57
Exactly, exactly. So anything related to that if they want to start I’ll give an example. There were some years in the Jewish community Passover, Passover programs were a huge business people would spend 3050 or $80,000 to go away for Passover
Yoni Mazor 18:11
days, just kind of background information, you know, the Jewish people, and once a year we celebrate the Passover festival holiday Fridays, we now let the bread with Marta these crackers. And you know, the schools are awful for all the Jewish schools. So lots of families want to you know, usually happens around March or April, when your families want to kind of go out and do it somewhere else.
Yoni Mazor 18:33
Because it’s very tedious to holiday because you have to clean your house, you know, for your for yourself, you have to anything related to bread or wheat, you have to clean it all out. And when people go crazy nuts, some other people like to just say, you know, my house is my house, I’m not going to go crazy on it, I’m just going to go to a hotel or resort somewhere for a day’s listening to hide and have a good time and missing it the vacation became like a vacation opportunity for the Jewish community. So instead of B roll it to a huge business and industry, and how are you helping there.
Pinny Ackerman 19:01
So what happens is exactly what you’re saying? So people who are anyway, spending a tremendous amount of money for those eight days have to go to one of these programs, we partnered with the programs and said, you can tell your clientele that they can use their points to pay for their state. So if normally were tossed $20,000 for two rooms, you know, a family would say, You know what, let me take the third room and I can bring other people and it’ll be $30,000. And they’re selling their points to do that. So by educating the consumer that their points have $1 value, and we can in any environment.
Pinny Ackerman 19:34
So there’s, you know, this is just one example of that, that happened to you know, we found a lot of success and, but, and again, this will apply to e-commerce as well. The dollars that you spend on your card can also turn into points, which therefore turns into more dollars, which has applications everywhere. So we found ourselves very much educating the consumer about that there’s a value in that point, and that this is a real dollar amount that we can tie it to so On a personal level, whether if you want to take your family on a trip, and you’ve earned all these points, now you can go away, we have just done something major, like a Passover program, and then even more. So we’ll get to, I guess, into the E-commerce space where that dollar goes that you’re spending and you
Yoni Mazor 20:13
Get. I think I’m getting about one thing I want to clarify here, maybe if you can help me so most consumers today with their credit cards, they’re aware that there’s no cash value to their credit cards because of cash rewards. So what is the advantage of regular consumers? Before we even step into the E-commerce domain? What is the value of regular consumers to work with, with the company like paid, why I’m getting cash, I get 1% 2% 3% all these categories. Why is there a needs to go the extra mile on anything? A lot of the advantages are at that moment at that point.
Pinny Ackerman 20:46
So I think the value will be is that there’s a tremendous amount of information out there. And some people follow some of the bigger bloggers and they read about what they’re offering and tell people like that and enjoy that. And they have to figure out how that applies to them. And they’ll carry around 13 or 14 different personal cards for when they get gassed to use that card. When they go to eat. They use that card when they go into Uber, which is fine. And I’m not competing with that. Are
Yoni Mazor 21:08
Are you saying it’s a regular consumer, some of them so sophisticated and developed on it? So they mapped it all out where they can maximize the bang for the buck on their credit, their credit card usage? That’s one type of the more sophisticated in
Pinny Ackerman 21:20
That segment of the market. And I would say for that market. And obviously, we’re not, you know, they don’t necessarily need us on the personal side. I think you are 90% of the marketplace is not like that.
Yoni Mazor 21:31
Yeah, I’m not like that. I know I get 1% well, whenever you get a chance to convert it to cash and move on. So you’re saying that
Pinny Ackerman 21:38
you might not know which is the best you might be using a card in your wallet just because that’s the one that you use when for 10 years, oh, I flew on American Airlines one time, and I saw it get 30,000 points if I sign up. And that’s the current use for everything. And I think there’s a tremendous amount of people that do that. And they’re not thinking about Wait a minute, it’s used a different card. I can there’s a huge advantage. So yeah, I’ll
Yoni Mazor 21:57
To be honest with you, I know I’m not optimized for it because it is sophisticated. It does take time and research to get to those optimizations. Most people don’t have that luxury, do you think that’s where he goes, step into the situation of the consumer, or the business and map it all out? And you don’t even charge for it, you just help them out? Yeah.
Pinny Ackerman 22:15
So the reason and the reason we don’t charge for that is that we’re going to make money and why to buy once you utilize the value of using the right card, we’re assuming that based on the relationship and you appreciate it, you’re going to come back to us that therefore we can help with other things, whether it’s your travel, whether it’s buying your points. So I think that’s where I think a lot of the value will come in for that clientele is where we don’t have to charge for that, you know, a fee for the consultation.
Pinny Ackerman 22:38
But usually, they’ll find value at later points. And they’ll trust us as trustworthy people. And I think a lot of what our brand has been over the past 1011 years is the trustworthiness you know, I mentioned that a LinkedIn before that’ll make money on every phone call that I make, I’m not charging you to talk to me or to talk to my team about what there is to do, I’m confident that at some point, we’re going to bring value, and therefore we can make an ROI on that. And that’s really how we built the company from the ground up is that there’s a value in what we know and what we have to offer, let’s figure out a way to make money that not going to feel like we’re charging you a penny for
Yoni Mazor 23:10
I love that’s kind of my favorite approach, let’s focus on the value, and eventually, the value will find its will its way back to us. It’s all kind of impactful arrangement, okay. So on the consumer side and the business side, I can understand the things you know, the benefits of you know, maximizing and optimizing, you know, you’re spending, so you get rewarded as much as possible according to your needs that I get. So now let’s dive into the E-commerce space and try to make sense of, you know, of all of it to our listeners in our audience. And yeah, what’s the opportunity there. And if you can finish,
Pinny Ackerman 23:41
When we’re talking about it, I’ll show you how the segue applies. On the consumer side, you have a guy who’s buying gas he’s buying groceries is at restaurants, $1,000 a month, $5,000 a month, $10,000 a month, and then the ROI on that on $100,000 in annual spend could be 1% 2%, it’s a little bit. Now if you take that and multiply that by 10, right. And eCommerce, you have companies that are spending hundreds of 1000s of dollars, millions of dollars a month, right on ad spend on inventory on fees on, you know, on services. So when all of a sudden, you know, you can get one or 2% Back on the dollars that you’re spending anyway, or even three or 4% back. So somebody’s spending a million dollars a month, which is not unrealistic. And various, you know, parts of the business, if you could get 1% or 2%. Back, you’re talking about 10 $20,000 a month. So if you calculate that into your margins for a product, that’s a so then obviously your margins will now go from 8% to maybe nine or 10%. Now you’ve
Yoni Mazor 24:37
Always just from the top, you’re saying
