In 2013, I set up shop in my garage and started experimenting with different frame materials and designs. As it turns out, trying to change an industry using 100-year-old technology is a bit like turning the Titanic around. What followed was a whirlwind of excitement and anxiety, still mixed with a bit of disbelief.

Once your life shifts from pitching outbound to defending against inbound, however, you have to ruthlessly say “no” as your default. From 2007-2009 and again from 2012-2013, I said yes to way too many “cool” things.

A lot of the things that we ultimately did when I was running Global Payments from 2013 to 2023, a lot of things that we ultimately did were not even like a glint in my eye back in 2009, 2010 when I was just thinking about coming over.
