Takeaways:
- Sell Your Byproducts: Sometimes you have to operate a particular business for a while to recognize that a hole that exists in the market. If you're watching for it, you may realize that the hole is more valuable than the business you're actually operating.

They eventually decided to sell the subscription product, which had until then been their bread and butter.
