So what have we been up to?

Before you all ask, let me go ahead and fill you in on everything...

We have been busy working on fixing a pre-launch "bug-fix" list of around 15 items... with any new freshly coded product it takes a ton of recession testing to verify that the site is using the code as designed and the product is working. There were very few bugs on the front end - aka "Shopper website"... so the look and feel works really well... Most, unfortunately, have been on the backend "vendor system"... where we and/or the vendor can update their profile pages, as well as upload/change coupons & banners... So Jessie has been burning some major midnight oil with the help of David and Anil to get everything updated/enhanced..

In the mean time, we were also selected out of many other companies by Microsoft to attend a week long summit on moving our product to their Azure platform... The Azure platform is Microsoft's cloud platform. What this meant for us was a team of Microsoft developers, a project manager and 5 straight days of education on their latest product - plus the power to take our site and move it to a new platform that would virtually guarantee unlimited processing, ram, database size, storage size and bandwidth.... not to mention greater redundancy... We completed the task in 2 days.

View the interview with Microsoft by David and Jessie - here - at the end of the event, we gave a presentation of our site/product to a panel of Judges and Venture Capitalists... see photo and we were awarded with a project completition aware - see photo to read more about this click here

On the sales front, we have a partnership with a telemarketing firm, and we have been working practically non-stop with them to sharpen the scripts, presentations, and other sales generating tools that we will be using to sell the services of ChasingSavings.com

So as you can see we have been extremely busy on several fronts. Not to mention that we are working on several potential partnerships that could enable other companies to offer our site along wtih their services.

The Long Haul is almost over...

Sorry for not posting as much as when we first started... One rule about Social Media is to always make a committment to always post if your going to have a blog... it is always easier said than done.
