We work labs and this is back when, before we work was even big.
So I'm not even, I think we had a letter of intent from them, but we ultimately didn't even charge them.
They co-working spaces ended up not even being our target market.
Eventually, uh, we were charging at the bottom line.
We started like a hundred bucks a month.
Um, the, the comparison that we would often see was, you know, was like Salesforce would charge like five to $10 per user per month.
We never got to a point where it was real that we could, uh,
that we would be able to quite frankly, we never found anyone.
We didn't sell the enterprise level.
We got into one enterprise and they, they would have done it for that much, but we didn't, we raised some money.
How much did you raise?
We ended up returning it all.
How much did you raise?
God, I should know this off the top of my head, but it's been so much has happened since then.
I think we raised about, I want to say $60,000, but we didn't spend any of it.
Um, long story short, um,
And this was another sort of lesson was by the time we had, we had raised the money and I was a CEO of that company.
Um, we realized that it's like this, we, we've gotten the money, but we were just like, we're like, we've been at this exhausted and we didn't think it was responsible for us to, we had, we had an acquisition offer and we're like, this is better for the customer.
It's better for us.
We don't right now have the energy to, to, to build the company to where it needs to be.
