@theventure: This guy left a rocket company to fix his family's farm and built a $2 billion empire 🐄💰 Craig Piggott grows up on a dairy farm in New Zealand, studies engineering, and lands a job building real rockets. But every trip home, he watches his parents waste hours moving fences by hand. This doesn't have to be this hard. So at 21, working nights, he builds a prototype cow collar, then tells his boss he wants to start a company. His boss doesn't just like the idea, he backs Craig and joins the board. Craig quits, moves back to the farm, and grinds through years of failed prototypes. ✓ Cracks it with a collar that uses GPS to draw a fence on your phone ✓ Guides each cow with a soft beep as she nears the edge, then a gentle vibration ✓ Adds a tiny electric pulse only if she still pushes through ✓ Trains most cows to turn back at just the sound within a week Building rockets → watches his parents move fences by hand → builds a collar at 21 → years of failed prototypes → GPS fencing that works → over a million collars → $2B valuation. Sometimes the problem worth solving is the one you grew up watching your own family struggle with. What would you leave a dream job to fix if it was the problem right in front of you? 🤔 #Business #Halter #AgTech #Success #Entrepreneur @halterhq
