Michels comments:
How we found fariba
Cold call. --- we sell the usecase vs the platform ---- demo with alia ---- email from Alia "how do we use it? --- michel called back and they talked about Ali's not fully understanding how she can use it on a day to day ---- Training session that was use case oriented with envelope intruduction.
first American are not very keen to do quick and easy rendering for architects.
