I turned down the business, but I said, you should come to my conference.

I think you'd enjoy it.

That founder came to my conference, was a great participant.

People loved having him there.

And then a few months later, I got an email.

This was this week saying, hey, one of my smartest friends

has started this new company that I think you'll find interesting.

Are you interested?
