- How two sales guys ended up learning design and programming.
- "Everybody needs to build a website for Uncle Larry"
- Justin and Ward go through a sample sales phone call.
- How they found the idea for MemberSpace through their consulting company.
- How Ward knew there was a lot of interest in the product.
- The unconventional reason Ward and Ryan took money from Ernest.
- 47:25 – what to do about that feeling of dissatisfaction and listlessness.
- 48:45 – "You have to ask yourself: why are you constantly running? What are you trying to achieve?"
- 49:50 – "Don't succumb to the ennui."
