sold his first company now building high level to help small businesses with reviews,

text messaging, and even appointment scheduling. They now have about 10 agencies using them,

paying 300 bucks a month. Those agencies sell through to SMBs. Doing about 3 grand per month

right now. Got his first couple customers by integrating with the software marketplace,

Dr. Krono, which is a medical HR kind of developer marketplace. He's bootstrapped the company off money he

made from a call to $400,500,000 sale of invoice share. But Tima 2 right now, building the

company in remote location, zero churn so far. Hello, everybody. My guest today is Sean Clark.

He dropped out of college to start the world's largest answering service and then left after

12 years to start an accounting

company sold that and is now helping marketing agencies close more leads to customers through automation.

He lives in Eugene, Oregon, married with a six-year-old son. Sean, are you ready to take us to the top?

Absolutely. Let's do it. Awesome. All right. So the company you sold was, I believe,

Invoice Sharepa, correct? That's correct. So is that like a FreshBooks competitor?

No, it was accounts receivable automation, which sounds really boring, but basically

it just helped small and medium businesses collect money that was owed to them.

And by automating all kinds of outreach to the customers and just basically bothering people

until they paid their bills.

And why did you sell it? You know, I grew it from my kitchen table to about a thousand customers.

And I just wasn't sure kind of where to take it and where to go with it. And right about that time,

somebody came in and said, hey, we'd love to buy you out. And it was enough money that I could

move on to my next venture, but not enough that I could retire on a beach.

So I said, all right, let's do it.
