Mixergy fan, Lisa Bruckner saw me interview other entrepreneurs here and asked, “Where’s YOUR interview Andrew?” We started out thinking that email newsletters would be our main product, but one of our experiments was online greeting cards and it ended up being the company’s growth engine.
Lisa: Bradford & Reed took up 100% of your time, do you feel you have a personal life now with Mixergy?
She wanted to know how I bootstrapped that $30+ MM/year business and a few other things about me.
So I invited her to interview me.

Co-founder Gregg Spiridellis came to Mixergy to tell you how he and his brother Evan built their company.
We had over 100,000 people on our newsletter by the time that the world fell apart. This is the story of two brothers who took on the established entertainment industry, succeeded for a while — and then almost went out of business when the dot com market crashed. And it’s the story of how they rebuilt their business and became one of the most celebrated digital entertainment studios.

Why I’m posting it on Mixergy
This is a good example of something we keep seeing in Mixergy programs: entrepreneurs redirect their companies several times before hitting on the big idea. I started out in email newsletters before discovering online greeting cards. ( I think you should read the transcript (or watch the video) of Loic Le Meur explaining why he’s redirecting Seesmic because it’s a good example of how entrepreneurs find think through the adjustments they make to their businesses.
