Who are we looking for?
A passionate team member obsessed with driving small business success, fintech, smart growth and cool tech apps.
Who we are?
Engineers and product obsessed - we loathe over-engineering, we cringe anytime a customer reports a bug and we release new versions every week.
We love our customers - solving their problems and helping them grow and succeed in a rapidly changing world. Oh yeah we also love their 5 star reviews.
We love disrupting the status quo - desktop solutions are so last year and we believe everyone globally in the industries we're going after will be using a mobile app as their primary business tool by 2025.
We don't just think of this as a job. In our spare time, this is what we do and who we are. Our obsession with small business, fintech, smart growth, and cool apps is a 24/7 thing.
We believe only two things matter as we build out our business: building a great product and delivering awesome customer service.
What will you be doing?
We’re looking for someone who knows what it takes to hustle in a start-up company and have an “always on” mentality. During your first 30 days for example, you’ll need to spend every moment possible diving deep into our product and learning about our Pros (users). Establishing a deep knowledge of our product will be key to being successful in this role out of the gate. There is tremendous upside for the right person to expand their role and career greatly as our company expands. We’re looking for you to put a your mark on the company!
We have over 30+ features and 67 different industries that we serve. You'll know you are a product expert when you can (a) respond to 80% of customer support questions in less than 5 minutes; (b) leave new and existing Pros who connect with you by phone super excited about their personalized setup and account optimization; (c) write an awesome FAQ on "How to get setup as a {industry name}" for any of our 67 verticals, including a Loom demo walk through of the app for that vertical.
