I had no money when I started the company.
I am.
How are you today?
How do we make money?
That's a good question.
So I started the company back in 2003 now.
I was having an issue with my computer back home.
Didn't really know what to do.
Started playing around with some stuff online and decided to build this remediation tool, an antivirus, back in 2003.
Who knew?
By 2008, me and a co-founder launched the first version of the product.
The whole idea was really, we're going to clean up your computer for free.
It sucks that you got infected.
It sucks that you got a virus.
And for 40 bucks, you can protect yourself going forward.
So that's really what we do.
We do that for consumers and we do that for businesses.
40 bucks one time or 40 bucks every year?
Yeah, it used to be one time.
Turns out if you want to run a business, it really needs to be a subscription business in software.
