Rowan says theres been plenty of reflecting going on, must be some pretty special feelings in the crew after pouring that much into something, seeing it fly, and getting the well deserved result they got with a $NZ700 million valuation.

I posted my thoughts yesterday on a few things I think we can take from this here: Do before you think, just make things happen

If it’s one thing you can take away from the Trademe success, it’s be a doer!
