How long did it take for Basecamp to take off and become profitable?
1 comments

Basecamp was profitable fast. We were doing about $5000/month after the first 6 weeks. We only had a few people at the company so our overhead was really low.
That was very impressive. Did you guys just spread the word through friends and do a lot of marketing at first?
