I started in DTC way before it was trendy. (2008)

Selling phone cases online. This did great.

Whilst doing this I noticed a need for a Shopify app that would make my life easier.

I got it built as I couldn’t code at the time (can now) and was asked if I want it private or public.

I opted for public and the rest was history. Went all in on SaaS in 2019.

Build a product <-> find the market: make it fit. 

That’s it.
