45:29 War das ein Best-Practice-Beispiel?

[transcript]

28:11 Though I know it's the best part. 14:53 So all the best to you and your family. I 22:51 it and see what makes the best sense, so that

[transcript]

57:38 Und das ist eigentlich eine Liste von Best Practices. Und wenn wir das immer

[transcript]

14:01 Well, I mean, or the best if you if you if you enjoy deleting. 28:46 Okay. What if I throw the wrinkle in that it really needs to have, like, the best uptime that I can. Does it matter then? 09:28 Yeah. I was I was definitely the first, and obviously, in my opinion, it's still sort of the best and and maybe by by a good by a good distance. Again, keeping in mind that I'm very biased about it. But I have I mean

[transcript]

43:17 And so we're building it again. I've said this. I'm sound like a broken record, but building the best work calendar and giving it out for free. So Android, we definitely want to do that as well. 42:26 And our goal with the mobile calendar is to build the absolute best mobile calendar and give it out for free. Because if I mean, I don't you've probably taken more time than most people to look at counters on the App Store. 37:53 It it's also hard it's also building into verticals that, let's be honest, like, are see the value in spending a bit of money to help them save a bunch of time. Right? Because Yeah. Your college student idea, it's like I sometimes selling to maybe broke college students isn't your best idea. Maybe it is, maybe it isn't.

[transcript]

29:46 And and also this kind of bucks probably, maybe some more traditional design thinking, or or product thinking. I wouldn't always rely on your customer to to have the best view of how to solve that. I I think that part of what makes companies great and, you know, you can use an extreme example like a like a, like a Steve Jobs at Apple. Like, he kind of, you know, would say, hey. Like, people don't know what they want. 36:20 This is the mission that we're on, and making sure that that people understand that. And and if you have the right type of person, they'll be able to buy into it and kind of come alongside you in that journey. So, you know, setting people up for success is is the best way to ensure success. And if you have clear parameters around that, you'll learn pretty quickly if if someone's gonna be a good fit at the organization or not. Doesn't mean they're gonna be, you know, completely value added if they want, but if they've got the right mindset and attitude, and and they're buying into what you're doing, you're gonna see them be a lot more productive and valuable to the organization than someone who's just got a set of technical skills, that maybe looks at the job in a more transactional way. 38:26 Yeah. I I try to stay away from from that mentality because those folks and you can identify them in your recruiting process, the ones who are kind of trying to maximize the money side because they'll they'll they'll have job hopped a lot. They'll kinda have hopped around, and they won't really have stayed anywhere long enough to, like, I think, truly grow themselves. And and this is something I tell a lot of our our junior people is, like, look, if if you wanna make good money in your in your job, that's fantastic, and and we're here to support that. The best thing you can do is is really invest in a business where you can grow and develop your, you know, your leadership capabilities, your skill set, because that's ultimately gonna set you up to find jobs that that that that do provide that level of income that you want.

[transcript]

46:04 But but, yeah, in building up that, my best advice, you know, go with people that that you can trust or have a reputation and that, that reputation they don't want to lose because it is, it is really, really difficult. But, yeah, try not to run out of money and and try not to fall out with your founders. It's it's it's it's a lot harder, you know, easier said than done. 44:09 Yeah. Well, I I met Anthony at school. So, you know, so so that is with within business, and I and I found this over the years, you know, you can have the the best product, you can have absolutely everything, But if you don't have solid foundations, if your founders don't know each other or don't get on or or they have ego problems, you know, when you do hit some some success or in in the bad times, you know, things will fall apart. So so having a a solid partner like Anthony, you know, I met him at 12, so I've now known him over 35 years. We've settled previous businesses together. 05:35 Through one of these contractors, I actually started writing some software for a baking company in London. So I was working during the day, and then in the evening, you know, I was programming on the weekend. So so that was kind of my first, I I suppose, my aunt where my entrepreneurial kind of kind of life began being surrounded. I'm I'm being in that world. And then then after a few years of that corporate life, I sold my house, moved back up north, lived off the profits for a few years while I set up my own my very first company and went into partnership with my best friend from school who is actually also a a founder of of Conocoapius at the moment.

[transcript]

42:23 Well, we're launching our, the XylOS thing I was talking about before, and we're launching our builder program, at the end of the quarter. So that's probably the best time for a person to to start using this, because it it does 2 things. It gives you the SDKs and the tools to be able to build things. But one of the deals we've had with developers is it's kind of hard for a person to to try it out. It's kind of like asking a person to write an iPhone app without an iPhone. 37:41 I think a lot of it is is just you have to to hone your skills. You have to get good at it. You have to and if you're gonna find a mentor that's willing to work with you, that's the best thing. And another thing that also makes it worse is the work from home situation we have now after COVID. It's a lot harder for a junior engineer or junior employee of any sort to actually learn from a mentor when they're working remotely. 33:14 And I can't afford the copywriter. It's way better than I am. So for all the tasks that you're not an expert at, having chatGPT be the next best thing is hugely important. And I think a lot of companies are doing that now. That's why I think we're seeing some interesting changes in employment structures as companies where I think the focus of where they're hiring has changed in many cases because there's certain roles that could be 80, 90% replaced with chat GPT and certain roles which can't be.

[transcript]

35:47 Like, you know, this is, I guess, product, sort of product management best practice. But you have to accumulate data, and you do that by getting out there and talk to people. 45:01 It's like I could ask you if you wanna upsize your combo. That's probably the best thing. But, let's how about we close the show with mentioning where people can get more information about yourself, meter, and any other links you wanna mention? 22:45 Yes and no. So the way I've got product brand background, so we sort of did it in sort of classic product best practice. We did lots of discovery and, we talked to a lot of people. And so we and we'd also experienced the pain ourselves. So that was quite an easy process.
