If you had to onboard a total beginner in one week, what's the first thing you'd teach them?

On the one hand, teaching the basics of who the customer actually is before touching any tool or tactic. If they don't understand that, everything else is just noise. But another part of me thinks the first lesson should be about reading results.

If you only had five days and a total newbie in front of you, what is the one thing you'd drill into them on day one? Just the first thing.

If you could only keep one type forever, which would you pick: residential, datacenter, or mobile?

If someone took away all the options and told you that you get to keep one type of proxy for the rest of your life, what would you go with?

Datacenter is fast and cheap, but it gets blocked more often. Residential blends in better and works in more places, though it costs more. Mobile is the hardest to block, but the price and the smaller pools make it a tough pick for everyday use. So there's no perfect answer, which is why I'm asking.

How did you land your very first paying customer, and how long did it take?

How did you get your first paying customer? Stranger, or someone already in your network? Did you find them or did they find you? And how long between your launch and that first payment?

I want to know one thing, the first customer, did he come from the channel you were expecting? Many people plan for one source, and the first sale comes from somewhere else. You don’t have to tell the revenue numbers. I’m mainly interested in the story and how long it took.
