I mean, you know, talking to a friend who who this actually my co-founder's friend, but he's founder of another company.
And he had a senior software developer who wasn't even like crazy, like seven, eight years of experience.
and he was making like 150 and he got picked up by twitter for over 300 grand to work remotely in the same geography like how you can't compete with that like there's really nothing you can do about that and it's only getting worse
Yeah.
So our first cohort of customers earlier this year, we suspected it was going to be more of a cosplay.
So we started going to India, really seeding our database to get more applicants and developers.
But what we found is that it wasn't a money thing, though they're saving money.
They were really concerned about, you know, just getting the right team members with the right experience and time zones.
So we're finding that most of our customers right now are and the ones who are in process to hire because we have we have more that haven't hired yet.
There's like another six or seven right now we're working with on that side.
And they they're focused on South America.
So we've been really successful in South America, but it's more expensive for sure.
Kind of like, so our product is built is, is,
getting like we haven't we're in process to build some of that so there's some like ats like basic features but we're not wanting to build like a full crm for that like it's we're trying to keep it as essential and simple as possible like we don't want to chase a lot of different product you know themes and so you know for us like it's like all right nail the complication of hiring somebody like getting an offer onboarding that sort of thing like nail that
And also nail the payments, you know, but certainly you could go to deal or remote or something and try and do that if you knew how to gather the right candidates and assess them and that sort of thing.
Honestly, their only option right now is to go to either Fiverr or Upwork and then try and circumvent them.
But that's what you're doing.
No, that's not what we do.
How do you do it?
So we, we've, we've figured out a pretty awesome way to hire in country native recruiters.
