    Yeah, I essentially reverse engineered your email. "What question would I ask to elicit this response". It was just such a compelling format, you really nailed it. I never saw the actual questions you asked, although I wished I ha

    These are all great points and I appreciate the feedback! 1. Yep its low percentage, and its a goal to improve this number. 2. You're right, could definitely be better. I made money by successfully connecting devs with the submitters.
