Nicely done guys. Keep it up. Then push yourself to take it even further.

How do you double revenues in two years?

I feel like you have a good platform here and have found a niche where there are many people seeking guidance on how to get a limited number of seats in financial services. I'm sure there are ways to service similar industries or, even better, ways to continue to make money off of those who actually break in. Much like a traditional investment bank, as a 'client', I don't even know where you actually make money......which is probably a good thing, I guess.

It's actually very simple to get included, interviewed, mentioned and the like in major media sources.....I haven't seen WSO media exposure outside of Business Insider. Most media is great free exposure if you can get it. Even better if you can get it for something that is a relevant perspective of WSO and relates to some way you can make money.

Anyway, congrats to a good start and good luck for an even brighter future.

(Obviously, don't answer these questions here, just to yourself. As Captain Obvious, I thought I should mention that)
