This helps me uniquely understand and relate to clients and their perspectives in helping them grow their businesses. I am a co-founder and CEO of the website LegalForce Trademarkia (attracting more than 1.5 million unique visitors every month), and the website the DealMap (formerly Fatdoor, now Google Offers), which was sold to Google, Inc. in 2011.
