A co-founder shares how Stock Alarm started from hacked spreadsheets. Morgan built the first version while the speaker joined later to help grow it from low monthly revenue into something that works.
This company. Fun story. I was hoping Morgan could be on the call as well, but he's in Vietnam at the moment. He's my co founder, but actually I was not. I did not start Stock Alarm originally. I actually joined when it was still like 100 mrr, roughly. Essentially, my friend had started it. His name's Morgan. He had started it, posted it on LinkedIn, was trying to grow it, and I was like, oh, I actually built this exact same thing, but with like a bunch of hacked together spreadsheets, like Google sheets and whatnot, like Python scripts. And I saw it, I was like, oh. Like, I tried to use it. I realized, oh, this thing barely works. Sent them a list of suggestions on how to fix it.
