eWebinar was built in a silo for 18 months before the first person signed up for a trial. Melissa and her team had no idea if this business would become “real”, and if people were going to pay for the service.

On this episode, Melissa and Todd recount stories of when they knew they were onto something, through customer interactions and feedback, outgrowing their marketing website, and hitting scaling issues from increased usage.

Takeaways:
• Signs of our business business becoming “real” post launch
• How customers, marketing, and pricing changed as business grew
• Product enhancements we had to do as a result of scaling issues
• How growth changed the way we approached the business
