We moved on - my friend was in business school at the time, and thought that continuing on with the project would be detrimental to his job search (he was looking at joining a hedge fund).

Yeah, it was a very sudden shift. We always knew they were potential customers, we just didn't realize how quickly they would take to the product (as opposed to legal firms which you can imagine are significantly more bureaucratic about such things).

Anything I've ever wanted (within a certain cost) has always been signed off immediately/practically did not require approval. It's very easy to sell a relatively cheap (compared to some of the other subscriptions sold to hedge funds) service to an organization that's extremely flat.
