Not sure if it’s touched on but one cofounder focuses on product while the other focuses on marketing. Cannot stress enough how much of a winning formula this is

This. There's a graph somewhere on their blogs showing traffic before and after certain events including when Marko joined. It was, to a first approximation, flat before that.

It's incredibly powerful if you can have one cofounder (ideally who's good at marketing like Marko obviously is) focus on marketing exclusively.

And one or both focuses on sales.
so true!
