Well, what a journey @Uplisting! What started as months of late-night and weekend work while we had other jobs, then years of a tough grind building this sustainable, bootstrapped company from scratch, resulted in an acquisition we could have only ever dreamed of. Andy, Tadej and I started @uplisting in 2017. Since then, we've spoken to each other almost every single day. Aside from my wedding in 2017, we hadn’t been in the same room together until last summer when we caught up in Slovenia. What you can achieve online is mad, and I’m so grateful to these partners (and our significant others) for their grit, hard work, and unwavering belief in our goal. Together with our brilliant, self-sufficient team, we’ve grown sustainably into one of the top software companies in our industry. In 2023, we processed a staggering $400m in bookings for customers. Few companies make it to this point, and we think we’ve done it the right way - on our own terms. Thanks to all who have supported us, thanks to our customers and thanks to AirDNA and Alpine for making this acquisition as enjoyable as I think it could be. Thanks, @TomLyonsBiz, for a fantastic write-up.

My piece for NBC World: lnkd.in/d8kmgeqE I’ve wanted to visit Socotra ever since 2013, when I was living in Yemen and first heard stories about its surreal landscapes, alien-like flora, and the mythical Dragon’s Blood trees.

Watching @shaunagh go from idea to script to filming to release has been a joy, especially having experienced the heart of the story firsthand. Her directorial debut Brown Bread premieres at @GalwayFilm in July. Couldn’t be prouder.

And a short memory.
Other than rich parents, I am increasingly convinced that the biggest indicator of future business success is a high tolerance for pain
