So we split the roles since we're kind of building like a very technical product.
So we're trying to focus more on the engineering part first.
So first, we did a research on existing platforms around the world.
Obviously, there's none in Africa yet.
So we did a research on GrowSolve, ReferralRock, and the rest.
And we figured that that's like a good enough pricing amount.
Yeah.
So there's something really different about Referbox that I really love to talk about is the fact that, so we started Referbox as a platform to help small businesses, acquire customers and all of that.
And our major plan is to provide APIs and plugins.
So allow these small businesses to integrate on platforms,
like, for instance, Shopify, or there's a Nigerian platform called Flutterwave Store.
I've heard of them.
So, for instance, there's a small business.
In Flutterwave Store, you can create a referral marketing campaign, share it to your friends and your family, and they join.
And we have a marketplace app for those people, so they can manage their rewards.
If you're giving them coupon codes, you can manage it on the app.
So, this is what other platforms are.
No, we are working on that because Flora is a big company and we are trying to take it step by step.
My favorite book is The Monk Test.
The Monk Test is a good one.
