The reason there's so many companies doing well there is because, you know, tell me a business that doesn't want to grow and make more money online.
And if you're building tools that help you do that, then I think you're going to do well.
There's just so much opportunity out there.
And there's so many businesses as well that are stuck on really old school, horrible tools, not these cool startups, but like
really old school stuff or nothing at all.
So there's just a huge land of opportunity out there that's up for grabs.
We've actually been going a very long time.
I started a company with two of my best friends from school.
And when I say school, I mean, like, I don't know what you say over in the US, but in the UK, we say like secondary school.
So when we're about 15 years old, and we were just geeky kids at school, like trying to learn how to build a website.
What year?
That was 2006, believe it or not.
So yeah, like pre-iPhone even.
Yeah, I'm 26.
Yeah, yeah.
So young at heart still.
We raised a bit of capital a while ago, but we've always had the bootstrap mindset, like the heroes of ours are people like Basecamp and people like that.
And we love the idea of building a sustainable, profitable business, which is what we are today.
We've been lucky enough to get some angel money back in the day.
How much total?
