So, you know, we don't kind of publicly give those numbers, but you're kind of calculating it correctly, you know, based on, you know, kind of average number of customers in ARPU.
And so, you know, kind of quickly growing into a, you know, a pretty mature company over here.
We've got about 25 people in Seattle at this point.
So, you know, it's an interesting kind of topic in conversation.
Right now, we're actually looking at it and saying, hey, we're going to slow down growth a little bit in 2017 and really kind of target to do a 2X in 2017.
While we focus on taking the customers that we have today and really becoming more and more core with them.
And so the concept here is, hey, we don't need to grow a ton in terms of customers, but we want to make sure that we're really sticky and core with our current customers, get those average deal sizes up, provide more volumes, and really get kind of the product, the customer success, the onboarding, the implementation, all to a place where then in 2018 we're ready to really grow fast.
start to three X again and really press on the gas pedals.
That's kind of how we look at 2017 is that, and you're kind of seeing this in the market all up, right?
Is that it's, it's not necessarily about growth at all costs.
We want to focus on the fundamentals, focus on our relationship with customers, really get core, really get sticky and then press on the gas when we're, when we're ready.
25, 25 here in Seattle.
That was just a seed round.
That was just a seed round.
So a little bit of convertible notes that kind of converted into that round.
And then our, our venture capital partners with Divergent and Vulcan Capital.
It was an equity round, yeah.
Exactly, so it was a seed round.
It was 500K that converted off the convertible notes, and then a million in new capital.
Uh, last, uh, last December, last December.
