William Peregoy wants everyone to dine like a boss. He launched this year DineMob<\/a>, a start-up which helps restaurants fill during off-peak hours, with co-founder Malcolm Woods.<\/p>\n

The mobile application beams out deals during restaurant down times, integrating with their point-of-sale systems and providing users with credits that can be exchanged for foodie deals.<\/p>\n

William founded the Dallas based company after graduating from Hult International Business School\u2019s One-Year MBA<\/a> in 2012. A grafter who made one of his first paychecks as a trader shorting Lehman Brother\u2019s stock just before the bank collapsed, trigging the global financial crisis, he has worked across the finance and consulting sectors.<\/p>\n

DineMob has partnered with Dallas food bloggers, who have helped spread the message during the product\u2019s Android launch. The company also works with Uber, the $50 billion taxi hailing app, in a tie-up which allows users to schedule a ride directly within the DineMob app.<\/p>\n

The start-up has received $25,000 in funds from the Tech Wildcatters accelerator in Dallas, and is in discussions about raising a larger funding round from local investors.<\/p>\n

An MBA has given William the confidence to lead business strategy. He is targeting 10 pilot restaurants. So far, DineMob\u2019s biggest client is La Duni Latin Caf\u00e9, a chain of restaurants in Dallas whose head chief, an entrepreneur, sits on DineMob\u2019s advisory board.<\/p>\n

But William, a former vice president of Hult\u2019s Consulting Club at Hult Boston<\/a>, is hungry to bite into a bigger chunk of a sector slated by investment bank Digi-Capital to generate $70 billion in revenues by 2017\u2026Read the full interview with William on BusinessBecause.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n
