In the spirit of me still processing that it’s nearly 2023, I thought I’d share some recent wins on behalf of everyone at team Foxbox! https://t.co/F9zkfO2kTD

@peterpme @draftbit Congrats!! You've accomplished so much with Draftbit and I'm super excited to see what's next.

OrangeQC wanted to accommodate Android users. So they built an app. The trouble is that the Android ecosystem is in constant flux, so the app quickly became hard to support. We fixed that.

Every client is unique—and we treat them as such. Foxbox doesn’t work in silos.
We don’t communicate through proxies.

We’re YOUR team. You’re OUR team. For us, there’s no other way.

We love technology but only when it’s used purposefully.

Before implementing new technology:
1) Define the problem
2) Set the vision

You can't build something if you don't know:
1) WHY you're building
2) WHAT you're building

Be true to yourself.

It’s ok to mimic someone else's business or use the same ideologies as a successful person. But just know that your journey is going to be different than you imagined. Stay the course, and never run a business based on how someone else would do it.

[Rob Volk @bobbychaz]

It can be intimidating to see other people succeed.

When I was in Chicago and thinking about starting a company, I met everyone I could. I asked about their ideas, their companies, their vision, etc.

[Rob Volk @bobbychaz]

They doubt themselves too.

The doubt never goes away! Of course, I have more confidence than I did, but I 100% thought my doubt would go away once I reached a certain point. It didn’t.

[Rob Volk @bobbychaz]

That's all! I'm still new to this twitter thread thing so I'll take any advice I can get! 😀

We’ve hired 26 people in the past 90 days. Here’s what we’ve learned.🧵👇

[Rob Volk @bobbychaz]

→ Better projects = easier recruiting.
We've been selective in working on projects that push our team members to solve new challenges and grow their skillsets.

This has helped us recruit better talent because they're interested in working on the types of projects we have.
