May 2023 4 people "Haven't taken a salary in a few months," I wrote in my journal, "Jing cried in the car, overwhelmed, anxious..." We were investing in the team and needed to make some sacrifices. May 2024 11 people Investing ahead of growth can be painful and uncertain, but we had to escape the cycle of sell, execute, sell, execute...vs working ON the business. For this first time in eight years and two businesses, we can enter the summer and not have to worry about next month. At the beginning of this new chapter, what excites the most is simple: seeing the team execute, develop mastery, and investing in their success. When they run a video shoot, that's success. When they complete a website project that they ran, that's success. When we see them lead, that's success. We've done 85+ projects in 6 years... ....just getting started.
Congrats J&J, proud of what you’ve built ☘️
Huge win brother! Love the picture!
Jordan Selleck, What was the distant picture looking like in February and March 2023, when the salary to self was dried up? A dim light at the end of the tunnel or nothing to see? I'm curious to understand what enabled you to trust the nascent team for those several months.
Big milestone. Glad to see you and Jing are doing well Jordan Selleck.
Way to go Jordan!!
Congratulations guys.
