Team ChipIn v0.1
Our coming out party should be sometime this month. Our team has been putting the finishing touches on many different aspects of the product, from programming and business development to marketing and branding. There is a terribly difficult balance between throwing out a prototype (Beta) and letting the market help clean up the bugs and releasing something our moms would be proud of. We feel that our product is going to change the way groups of people transact online, so it is important to make a fantastic first impression. We have been struggling to determine what is good enough and should get a better idea as we release an alpha model soon to test with our friends and family.
As exciting as it is to be forging new territory online, we also have a list of unknowns around the business model that we are solving daily. I guess that’s what makes a startup fun to work on. I think the old saying that inspiration is 1% and perspiration is 99% is very true. ChipIn would not be launching without the tremendous team we have put together. I am proud to have the honor of working with our startup team and look forward to bringing on new faces when we launch.
