Interview with Àlex at IndieHackers BCN

Hope y'all are having a very restful winter break wherever you are in the universe!

We're kicking off the year with our chin up and a very positive attitude to bring you the best content for this podcast, and we're also super thankful for your following and support throughout this year and a half of episodes!

In this occasion, we bring you an interview with our CEO Àlex, from late 2019, when he was interviewed at IndieHackers BCN to talk about bootstrapping businesses, indie development, B2B sales, being an officeless company and how to hire and nurture less senior talent in an all-remote environment, and the challenges we faced as a company back then. We also delved into what was our product, at the time, a project that never saw the light of day - but we won't spoil you why.

Àlex also went over his relationship with Startup Grind and how this was combined with MarsBased in the first years of the company, and how he sold the idea to his two co-founders.

Àlex is also the kind of person who writes in third person when speaking about himself, like right now - but he's not a bad person.
