He Moved to Australia to Hire One Sales Rep. HR Said No.

you want to, as a startup, you know, you're not gonna be a $10 billion company by just be doing business in the US. Maybe there's some exceptions like insurance or real estate or something like that, but you have to expand into global markets. And we wanted to expand into Australia and a few other places because, well, the farm, the agriculture industry is very strong in Australia. I was cold calling farmers in Australia. I actually moved to Australia for 6 months and was driving up, which was a fun experience, like in my rental car to Australian farms. And I went out there to launch the team, to go hire the team. I finally found the first sales rep that I wanted to hire. After all of that, the HR team says, hold on, you actually can't hire this person. We don't have the infrastructure. We don't have a business entity in Australia. We don't have a way of paying these people in Australia.
