Q kind of fun to watch because you'll meet, you know, founders of public companies. You'll meet heads of large private equity firms, individual, everybody in between. I guess, um, now, now I'm kind of curious in terms of, you know, you, you go live and acquire.com. You have all these buyers interested in, in both these businesses. How did you figure out who the right buyer was for these businesses?
A Yeah, for SwimGen, I felt quite strongly about making sure the right person was taking it on, and so the private equity firms, family offices, the more businessy folks, I was shying away from a little bit. In the end, I did sell it to sort of like passionate, semi-retired dev who would be handling it all themselves, just, just like myself, which was awesome to see, and then, yeah, and his, his wife, Helping as well. So it kind of just went from, you know, one passionate couple to another, which I was really, really happy to see. On the Zendesk side of things, I didn't feel as passionately that it had to be, you know, passionate solo dev. And so that one went to like a group of investors that are just scooping up a bunch of smaller, smaller apps and things like that. Yeah, it was, it was really interesting though, to see the different perspectives too, as far as Especially in the due diligence, like what financials they want and everything, or it's the, you know, the passionate solo dev versus the investment group.
