How do you crank out profitable web apps when you have no funding and are working with a virtual team? That’s what Chris Nagele did, so I invited him to teach how he did it.

Chris is the founder of Wildbit, a web software firm focused on building complex web applications that are easy to use. Wildbit has launched Beanstalk, a code collaboration, management, and deployment system, Newsberry, an email marketing system, and Postmark, an email delivery service for web apps. Each one of those apps is profitable, and as you’ll hear in the interview, Beanstalk generates over $1 mil in annual revenue.
