NARPM started at zero dollars when OMG! took over. They implemented strict financial monitoring and cost-cutting, turning the organization into a financially strong operation. The turnaround came down to discipline and tracking every dollar.
Do you agree? Do you feel like Knarpum's in a great place financially? Why don't we start there?
Knarpum is in a great place financially. And if you want to have one takeaway of what OMG! did well, that's top of the list. They did a great job in monitoring our finances, helping us save money, put money away.
Literally, when OMG!
came on with us, we had $0, and that was one of their mandates. Like, zero.
Well, color me impressed because there's a lot more than zero in the bank account now.
I think the company before maybe had even stolen some money from Knarpum. So that was like a big, like, focus of what the board was looking for and a mandate, and they've done a great job. I mean, we have a lot of money in the bank. We have great vendors, right? Like, and I tell people all the time, our conferences, the things we do could not happen without vendors.
