I can think of a few where we spent way more.

927 SaaS Security Company Hits $40m in ARR, $.50c on $1 to Bottom Line

So yeah, probably on average.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
927 SaaS Security Company Hits $40m in ARR, $.50c on $1 to Bottom Line

I'm willing to spend it when the first year's, yeah, I'll say yes.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
927 SaaS Security Company Hits $40m in ARR, $.50c on $1 to Bottom Line

I had to think that through.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
927 SaaS Security Company Hits $40m in ARR, $.50c on $1 to Bottom Line

So it's hard to compare that.

So that's how I think that can go fast.
