They didn't really tell you much after that. But the truth is after that, it's the same exact cost. You have six developers while you're building it. The odds are you're going to need that same six after to continuously build all the features from all the feedback you get. So for me, the biggest decision was picking the right person to team up with to build it.
And once we started building with that team is try to avoid a lot of noise. Every time you go to a networking event, someone's going to tell you they could build it better. And you've got to be extremely careful because often I see a lot of people start with one. They think somewhere else is cheaper and could do it better. And then their expectations fall short.

We see really good developers out there say it should be this way and then Somehow it works better when you AB test it the other way. And then after that, yeah, I do have staff. I was fortunate that I took the one person that was with my staff from my podcast and my financial service brand. And pretty much they just turned into the head marketing individual at Owl. So they do all our social media.

So I was able to just convert that individual. They've been with me over seven years. And then I hired one other individual to be head of brand ambassadors. And their job is strictly to just go after people on social media with big influence and make partnership deals. And that's it. It's one and a half people and me running this entire platform.

We have to run thin because this has all been self-funded. To this day, I have not raised capital. Being in the financial service space, I have a sense of what investors are looking for when it comes to the data.

our community. And I believe naturally when the time is right, investors will come through the app itself and see the value and see this technology could also be white labeled and just the growth that it potentially has scaling, of course. So that's been the journey of having a team.

I can't wait to the day where we have 10 staff members and we really could go to more events and really show people the app in person. We have found that in person does an amazing job when people see it. and then they could see your demo call made and then see immediately like this app is amazing.
