If you’re a pure startup and haven’t raised any money – you might change the life of every person you hire. My mom organized a trip to take me to France & Israel. And Israel felt like home to me – somewhere familiar. As an entrepreneur you can change people’s lives, too.

The largest exit we received this year was from BounceX (formerly named Bounce Exchange), which has a very strong selling culture from the CEO down. If you haven’t read about why, here is my post that explains the name in detail (hint: it is about a truly amazing woman, my mom). The attitude is, “that is what I hired you for”.
