I had no money when I started the company.
It was $160 million, which is the size of many IPOs.
Because I remember when a friend of mine from school came to the 12th floor of the 575 building in Manhattan, he looked around, he goes, this whole floor is yours.
And I said, yeah.
He goes, how did you afford this whole floor?
And I said, we do email marketing.
I created this business.
Here's the landing page.
Anyone can give me their email address, sign up for email newsletters, and we make money from advertising.
And occasionally we sell stuff to people.
And he said, whoa, you're so lucky.
I said, lucky.
I told you about this.
We both graduated from school.
I said, here's the thing.
People are going to want email newsletter email.
Then we're going to send them email newsletters.
And once someone's on our list, we can keep selling.
We can keep running ads to them.
It's going to be huge.
