AMA: New Supplement Biz, Profitable in Month 1

[mrf]

Ben,

Thanks for doing this AMA.

I was going to send you a message on LinkedIn, but thought it'd be more valuable here if you want to share.
You mentioned that you had never met your business partner before, yet you wired money to his account.

• How did the business idea develop and how did you two initially begin working together?
• Who is responsible for what on the team?
