I think Andy would probably agree with you that vision is a component of a "hustler", but does not a hustler make.

I would imagine he would recognize his sales experience as a key component of his start-up value, both in terms of 'stacking cheddar' and also in evaluating the market potential of a product.

The hustler can set the product development vision, but it better be based on a keen understanding of customer need, market readiness, and his team's ability to execute.

I've yet to start my own company, but you better believe I have a working list of "co-founder" candidates in mind. I've been building the list for years and I believe the opportunity, and the components necessary to execute, will drive my choice when the time comes.

I'm especially fond of (and halfway competent at) the Salesforce reports interfaces.

Salesforce gives you the opportunity to run and export pre-loaded reports, or define a set a parameters, name them, and run / export those reports time and time again.

I think it's a great idea, Eric, and would definitely be interested if you:

#1 Set up key reports for - keyword optimization, link-sources, geography, timing, and on-site activity tracking.

#2 Allow me to mash, 'pivot-table, and create custom reports that stream to me everyday.

If your solution can do these things, I'll not only be an advocate.. I'd be a customer.
