As a founder the biggest turn off for me is the fact that you cannot take on more than 500 non accredited investors. As soon you exceed that number and rake up $25M in assets you will be forced to go public, which is absolutely bonkers. Now

You are discounting the power of small investors. There is a good chance that your unaccredited investors altogether will cast a larger network than your VCs. Also if done right they could become super fans and the best possible promoters o

I have a question for Hykso: You guys had a progress bar of units sold. Did you see that this was creating urgency? Also did you find it hard to create traffic to your own site? What was your strategy? And why Shopify over Tilt/Celery?
