Key Pivot

“In the early stages our software that runs on the Web became quite messy and we found ourselves spending 80 percent of our time making certain that things that were already built didn’t break and so this was not a recipe for success. So we made the bold decision to throw out the old platform and rebuild it. …Immediately, new customers took a jump up, and now 80 percent of our time is being spent on creating things that are new and innovative rather than making repairs.”
