Manage episode 168542024 series 1328346
Mike Perham has successfully built a wildly profitable one-man business built on his open source efforts. We discuss what it's like balancing the seemingly opposing forces of open source and a for-profit business, managing support for the open source version as well as paying customers, and how businesses are all-too-willing to pay for things that provide value or help them save time.
Special Guest: Mike Perham.
