Kickstarting Board Games with Seth Hiatt Founder of Mayday Games

Author: Luke Bayard: Entrepreneur, Business Strategist and Techie November 4, 2016 Duration: 1:19:34

In this episode I sit down with Seth Hiatt, serial board game entrepreneur & founder of Mayday Games.

Originally Seth ran a successful online business selling through eBay; however, that all ended suddenly when eBay shifted away from a single listing fee to taking a percentage of each sale.

Overnight Seth had to make a choice between going back to his previous career as an accountant or to rework his business model.

Follow us through our conversation as we discuss his journey & discover tangible takeaways you can apply directly to your startup.


Luke Bayard, an entrepreneur and business strategist with a deep technical background, hosts Cult of Startup Podcast. Here, the polished facade of success is set aside to make room for the real, unvarnished origin stories. Each conversation is a journey back to the chaotic and formative early days, where guests recount everything from horrible miscalculations and embarrassing stumbles to those rare, awesome breakthroughs that changed everything. Luke’s approach is deliberately open-ended and nothing-off-limits, digging into the specific reasons-often messy and unexpected-behind an entrepreneur’s eventual trajectory. The result is an hour that feels less like a formal interview and more like hanging out with insightful startup buddies, where the exchange is as loose as it is informative. Tuning into this podcast means getting a candid education in business building, one grounded in lived experience rather than theory, where the lessons are found in the raw details of what actually happened.
