What is your startup story?
This startup was born out of the frustrations of trying to run a service business and constantly having to reinvent the wheel. After months of talking and researching, it was time to try a product based business with a defined deliverable and a clear vision. I was also highly inspired by my genius friend, Osi Peters, an Engineer currently working at Vista Print.
