We had the honor of serving drinks at the Tesla Model S & X Signature Delivery Event with our new draft system, powered by Cybertruck.
Being part of the celebration for two vehicles that transformed the automotive industry was truly unforgettable.
Thank you to Tesla for having us — we're incredibly grateful to have been part of such a historic moment.

Talk to your users as much as you can. New challenges arise often and it’s up to YOU to find what customers presently need and go ship that one thing. 🚀
The team that wins in the end is the one that learns the fastest. Not the one that may start with the best product. 🧠
Building your MVP (minimum viable product) should always include some type of commitment from your customers.
A purchase, a subscription, some type of promise that makes them committed. Revamp it until you get this. 📲📩🎯
