Blogging.

We both blogged in the same niche for many years and exchanged a few emails, cross-posts and that kind of thing. Last year, I realised I was never going to make a successful business by myself and started to look for a non-technical co-founder - I emailed Geoff because I knew that he knew his stuff in our niche and he seemed like a good bloke.

My email was something along the lines of, "I'm thinking of building something, no idea what, fancy it?", the time was right for him and we have been profitable almost from day one.
