Thanks for sharing the story – love hearing early accounts of when companies start!
The key takeaway from the story is that Andrew, as a founder, was willing to roll up his sleeves, get in the dirt and talk directly with customers to get early feedback. He didn't use his liquidity and profile to hire someone else to do this – that would have been too easy. A good founder will always start at the foundation, and build from the ground up.
