Our Philosophy
A few clients a year!
In a growth obsessed world of VCs, start-ups and a continuous clients’ list expansion, we decided to limit ourselves to a small number of clients every year.
If you are the curious type, you probably are wondering why?
Well, firstI want to talk about the tech world. You hear a lot of noise going about start-ups and unicorns in tech but surprisingly or unsurprisingly most of them are unprofitable.
As someone who comes from an old school finance driven family, after a few years of losing money - you understand that your business model doesn’t work.
So instead of being a start-up we decided to be a - small SaaS business with outstanding product and service. The shop local of the CMS and eCommerce world and guess what - we are profitable!
But it’s not just about the money, it’s about being on the journey with our clients and having the bandwidth to find the right solutions or building new ones for them.
We are proud to serve some big names in their industries such as Randy’s Worldwide, Nica, V-Zug, YMCA, Clarkrubber, Standard Process and many more.
While we might not be a “T-shirt brand” - we do offer an outstanding product and service at a good price and we will continue to do so for every one of our clients.
2002 - Now
From a humble digital agency in Melbourne, Australia to a global product company with offices around the world. The way websites were built was broken, so we decided to build our own content and commerce platform that enables businesses to scale and grow.
This is what we believe in….
Think big
We think big and don't listen to people who tell us it can't be done. Life's too short to think small.
Enjoy the adventure
We embrace every second of the journey and celebrate along the way.
Be the culture
Our culture comes from our people – not an HR manual. Be yourself, and inject a bit of "you" in everything you do.
Pride in our work
Our work is a reflection of us. We always strive to provide exceptional quality in everything we create.
Straight talking
No games, no jargon – just honest, candid and human communication
Speed without compromise
We do things well, we do things fast and we do things once. To deliver with speed is always our aim, but compromising on quality will never be on the agenda.
