All Systems Ready : ‘LaunchPad’ is online!

Amazingly awesome website? Check. Product designs and purpose? Check. What more could we possibly need?

Ok, a lot more. We need a lot more and its going to take time and effort – but it’s certainly a start.

Would you like to see where we are going with this?

I have wanted to start my own business for many years.

The answer was the same one I had been staring at for as long as I have been thinking about my career. It was time to to make that leap from coder and hoarder of knowledge to become more practical and available to work on such things.

So here I am ready to design, develop and deploy software. Years of training and business experience has not prepared me for the emotional experience of this entrepreneurial journey. And here we go…

The initial plan

It’s one thing to put up a website, advertise a service and sit and wait for people to jump at the chance to procure said products. Obviously, a naïve notion if that were the entirety of the idea.

The importance of a developer’s blog was highlighted throughout software development and business training, but more importantly I remember the value that other people’s developer blogs have brought to me. Not just for motivation, but the learning journey. I remember the names of developer’s I have learnt from; I remember their selfless form of wisdom sharing that was the ‘developer’s blog’ and all that it can offer. It means repeat searches, repeat readers, and ultimately: followers. People subscribing to these developer articles, following their favorite developers, or the developer’s that provided the most useful, or comprehensive steps on their development journey, or providing the perfect tutorial for those tricky development tasks.

Ok, the plan now starts to formulate:

Web applications – Development Environment – Digital Products
Distributed Cloud Automation and PAAS
