Over the past year we've been heads down on Aware and grown it 8x.

We’re in full scaling mode.

Along the way, we’ve also acquired two other businesses under the Aware canopy.

It’s time to step beyond.

And with that, we’re beyond excited to announce Wildfront(.)co.

Let's go!

Oof. Sad that people feel okay doing this, and that they can get away with it.

Same house, yep.

There was a reverse culture shock period for a couple weeks, but we've settled back in.

My wife & kids (10 & 12) recently returned from 2 years abroad (Croatia & Spain) - visiting 13 countries overall.

I felt safer in 99% of places we went than I do walking 4 blocks to a coffee shop from my house in the US.

And healthcare was transparent & affordable there!

But, friends & family...

Is this to imply that getting that tattoo might be your next mistake? 🤣

Hi Laura!

Do you do it only for MRR, or do you forecast expected costs too, to get net revenue?

For those with a profitable SaaS:

Do you view your revenue forecast/projections?

If so, what do you use?

Because most people aren't going to argue with a multi-billion dollar company, and they'll just assume they're right?

Or they do get complaints but have other priorities?

I guarantee they're aware.

At a point there's also just no excuse for payment processors and analytics platforms to not have it more accurate, when it's not hard.

I like having an accurate view, especially early on as fluctuations can make things look dramatically different than they are.

It doesn't have to be real-time, but days delayed, or counting cancelled accounts towards MRR, or not including coupons when they're added simple doesn't make sense.

I was filling out a form today that asked for my Twitter profile URL.

I put in my BlueSky profile URL.

I appreciate these insights from you, as you are obviously intimately familiar with this space.

I agree that the trend is more important.

I also believe it's not that hard to have a more accurate depiction than what's currently available (from what I've seen).
