I make the impossible possible for some of America’s richest people with an ultra-exclusive concierge app

This is an as-told-to essay based upon a transcribed discussion with Rey Flemings, 50, the creator and CEO of neighborhood and concierge service app Myria. The following has actually been modified for length and clearness.

I produced Myria, a neighborhood and concierge for ultra-high-net-worth people in 2021.

It operates in 2 methods. There’s a neighborhood for members to get in touch with one another through our app, and there’s a gain access to side where they can get off-market high-end experiences.

From my time dealing with huge celebs, I have actually found out that A-list celebs have gain access to that the abundant do not.

We are extremely selective about who our members are and what their individual profile appears like.

Subscription begins at $30,000 a year

Subscription begins at $30,000 per individual annually. Myria has 35 members, however we prepare to accept an additional 85 by the end of this year.

We have a waiting list of about 1,000 names, however we just allow little numbers at a time.

Over half of our organization is experiential– on things like travel and occasions.

The rest is more major: staffing, working with, security, expert services, and handling crises.

The basic general rule for utilizing Myria is that if your assistant can do it, then your assistant needs to do it. For whatever else, call Myria.

We as soon as rented the whole flooring of a Las Vegas hotel for 400 visitors

Right prior to the world basically closed down due to the pandemic, we tossed a birthday celebration for a customer’s better half.

The customer is the CEO of a Fortune 100 business and wished to go for it, so we employed around 100 individuals to work the occasion and got Pitbull to carry out.

We had everything recorded as a truth program that they might view later on.

We rank customer demands from one to 5

A level one demand is simple– something anybody can do or likely can buy online. Level 5 demands are all however difficult.

Let’s state you wished to get a VIP pass to Coachella, anybody with web gain access to and a charge card can purchase that.

A level 2 demand might be somebody wishing to go to an after-party at an expensive vacation home in Palm Springs or possibly scheduling a personal jet.

Level 3 demands are off-market– things that you can’t Google. For instance, a backstage pass to Coachella with an all-access artist’s qualifications. They offer them however there’s no site where you might go to discover it.

A level 4 demand might be getting a backstage pass to Beyonce’s heading efficiency.

However the huge bulk of our organization isn’t celebrity-driven. Individuals have extremely varied interests.

Myria began with the network I have actually established over 17 years

Prior to introducing Myria, I established and ran an offline concierge service called Heaven. Prior to that, I was CEO of Particle, which was offered to Apple in 2010.

In the start-up world, I satisfied a great deal of individuals who had actually developed huge fortunes and developed relationships with them.

I have actually assisted produce occasions and looked after the greatest celebs on the planet and a few of the most popular households in the world, consisting of the Justin Timberlake household workplace, which I have actually dealt with for 8 years.

I originated from not quite in Memphis, Tennessee. I participated in a public junior high, however my primary recommended I go to a personal all-boys school, which occurred to be among the very best in the southeastern United States.

It has a great deal of popular alumni, from the creator of FedEx to Paul Tudor Jones, among the most popular alternative traders in history– so I was exposed to a world of wealth.

In the 1990s, my coach asked me if I might make digital discussions for his monetary services organization to some rich households.

Over the next 4 years I pitched numerous discussions to super-rich households and got an understanding of their issues, who they were, and their interests.

That experience was the very best training school that I might ever have and it has actually allowed me to be able to do what I do today.
