- How did you get started doing this type of work?
Haikuists started when our co-founders Erick and Daniel were working on another project interviewing entrepreneurs in 2012. Instead of reaching out cold, they set up a Free Haiku Stand on a street corner in Brooklyn. Curious people would stop by and ask for a Free Haiku. Erick would write the haiku and while the guest was stuck standing there waiting for it, Dan would ask if he/she was an entrepreneur. Turns out there are a lot of cool people in Brooklyn willing to share their stories. One day, a gentleman came running by and asked us to write Free Haiku for yogis at his festival, Wanderlust. There, someone booked us for another event, and so on. Ten years later, we have over 100 poets performing in twenty-five cities and are making a dent in our mission to write haiku for everyone
- What types of customers have you worked with?
We work with couples planning weddings, event planners, private parties, corporate event staff, and more. If there's a gathering of people, there's an opportunity for Haikuists to make the event more memorable.
