Our guest today is David Darmanin. Chronologically, he has a doctorate in Law, is passionate about design, and is a conversion rate expert. Back in 2014, David was frustrated with a lack of an all-in-one, affordable CRO (conversion rate optimization) solution. So he brought a team together to build that dream tool. The result is Hotjar. VentureBeat reports that the tool “staked its claim on the future of CRO.” Standing behind this remarkable success is a talented team who works 100% remotely. How did they work this out? In the following talk, David shares with us his secret recipe for cooking up the dream team. Some key points:

• Once you go remote, you go remote all the way
