Congrats! You must be on cloud 9. I think you made the right choice.

Any advice to someone trying to setup this kind of platform in another country? I've been trying to do this in a market that lags far behind in this type of lead generation. I don't have the skills/resources to build a backend from the ground up. Is there a solid, basic software package out there? Would CraftJack ever license its platform to other markets (countries)?

If you just want to sell leads there are some basic lead distribution platforms out there like boberdoo.com. We built our own in-house. If you have a lot of custom stuff you want to do, find a CTO.

My advice is to either (A) find a technical co-founder or (B) learn enough to be the technical co-founder.
