It's more about the paid spend channels.

815: SaaS: He's Replacing the iClicker Growing From $800k ARR to $1.5m ARR in 6 months

We have a plan to reach like 10 million ARR by the summer of 2019.

815: SaaS: He's Replacing the iClicker Growing From $800k ARR to $1.5m ARR in 6 months

And we probably can do that organically by the funds that we're generating in our surplus and by the amazing people that we have on board.

815: SaaS: He's Replacing the iClicker Growing From $800k ARR to $1.5m ARR in 6 months

But of course, if there is a channel that we can pay for increasingly, we're looking for that as well.

And I'm always trying to build that case.

815: SaaS: He's Replacing the iClicker Growing From $800k ARR to $1.5m ARR in 6 months

We're also in a space that we're kind of changing the behavior of the people that kind of do presentations.

815: SaaS: He's Replacing the iClicker Growing From $800k ARR to $1.5m ARR in 6 months

So we really want to lead that behavior change before and then people will see that this is a product that is so heavily used and such a big part of the daily business life.

815: SaaS: He's Replacing the iClicker Growing From $800k ARR to $1.5m ARR in 6 months

815: SaaS: He's Replacing the iClicker Growing From $800k ARR to $1.5m ARR in 6 months

815: SaaS: He's Replacing the iClicker Growing From $800k ARR to $1.5m ARR in 6 months
