During that time, we were making a couple thousand dollars a month, and this was on a single pilot.
Our biggest cost was user acquisition.
So we were doing direct sales to office managers.
We were trying a monthly parking option for employees in downtown urban areas.
And that was, that was kind of our strategy for getting past the user acquisition hurdle for kind of your hourly parkers, people coming out at night and such.
We were like, okay, let's establish a baseline, get monthly parkers to fill our spaces during the day, reoccurring revenue count on it.
And then we can have a little more relaxation around getting those hourly users.
It's just a, it's a tough market.
People are used to their options and it was something that investors particularly and why we really pivoted is that investors are kind of tired of the mobile app parking solution.
A lot of people in the space, some people being successful with anybody that's invested in spot hero and parkways are the two biggest ones.
So far, 150K from 500 startups.
So far, bootstrapped until then.
And what's your team size now?
We've got a team of eight.
So co-founders, there's five of us.
So it's a pretty stacked team.
Five co-founders?
Yep.
Yeah, it's awesome.
It's already happened.
