Send us a Text Message.

Imagine surviving a plane crash, fathering twins, and still having the drive to leap from spinning records to revolutionizing the tech industry. That's just a glimpse into the world of Peter Schroeder, the Danish DJ-turned-entrepreneur whose story is as compelling as his beats. Tune in to hear how Peter's early start in entertainment, harrowing personal challenges, and his steadfast mantra to 'be still' before reacting have shaped his extraordinary journey. With every anecdote and insight, Peter, alongside his mentor and booking agent Christina, reminds us of the profound impact of resilience and the wisdom of mentors as we navigate life's unpredictable rhythms.

Have you ever wondered what it takes to pivot from a successful music career to launching a tech startup with the savings from a 401k? Peter Schroeder did just that, founding Telzo with a modest $16,000 and a vision for steady, sustainable growth. In this heart-to-heart, we uncover the mindset needed to hurdle over self-doubt and fear of failure, and why a stubborn streak can be your best asset when the world tells you 'no.' From his Danish DJ Award nominations to the entrepreneurial leap, Peter's story is a masterclass in seizing opportunities and riding the waves of change, no matter how daunting they may appear.

Finally, we step into the mind of a self-proclaimed nerd whose early love for coding and electronic music created an unlikely roadmap to success. Peter Schroeder shares the inception of Telzo, where his passion for service shines through a unique billing model that's as fair to the little guy as it is to the big players. Plus, he offers nuggets of wisdom on leadership vs. management and how assembling the right team can turn a vision into reality. As we wrap up, we peek into the future as Peter ignites our curiosity with the potential of AI in his business, signaling a new era of innovation that's just on the horizon. Join us for a journey of transformation, tenacity, and the beats that connect them all.
