Great.com will give away 100% of its profit, but so far we have had zero revenues. Yet, we have decided to do our first big donation - $100 000.

The purpose is to unify the team, get a publicity push, and support what we believe is a great organization - the questions to answer, are we really unifying the team, or only causing stress and distraction? And will we get any publicity at all?

Part 1: The first part is for you who don't know much about Great.com. How come we will donate all our profits? How far has the business come so far?

Part 2: In part two we explore how come we are donating this early. We haven't made any profits yet, still, we take this decision. Why?

Part 3: Thirdly we look into where we are donating the money. The organization is called Founders Pledge, but why do we choose them and what do they do?

-- This is an "Update episode", it means that In today's episode of Becoming Great.com podcast, Emil Ekvardt and Erik Bergman, explore the very real challenges and problems that come up when building Great.com. A company that gives away 100% of its profit to protect the environment.

This is an opportunity for you to get a behind the scenes look, of what it feels like to build a company - and also get an update on our progress.

What you learn here is not something you will read in a book. It’s the real story of how Great.com gets built. --
