QPI's Wings program helps London Street focus on customer needs to build their business

There카지노 게임 컬렉션�s a joke name you sometimes hear used for the construction industry: the confusion industry. No one ever seems to show up where they are needed, when they카지노 게임 컬렉션�re needed and with what they need.

Morgen Peers thought he had a solution for it. The head of London Street, a company he founded as a way to bring together 카지노 게임 컬렉션�my passions카지노 게임 컬렉션�around building and construction and neighbourhood planning and the local economy,카지노 게임 컬렉션� he devised an app he named 카지노 게임 컬렉션�Building Ideas.카지노 게임 컬렉션� The idea was to create a tool that would help construction crews and trades people schedule their time, list their tasks and then, so to speak, hand them out. He knew it had to be usable on a cell phone. That카지노 게임 컬렉션�s the go-to tool in the construction business these days for communicating. Besides, says Peers, most people working in the building trades have neither the time, nor the inclination, to use a desktop app, whether it be Teams, Google Docs or something created expressly for them. It has to be mobile.

London Street had connected with the Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s Partnerships and Innovation (QPI) Startup Runway Incubator in Fall 2020 (simply the result, he says, 카지노 게임 컬렉션�from hearing about it in the community카지노 게임 컬렉션�), and entered QPI카지노 게임 컬렉션�s Wings accelerator program for pre-revenue startups in May 2021.

카지노 게임 컬렉션�The Wings program and specifically the focus on what they called customer needs, really helped us,카지노 게임 컬렉션� he says. Even before they joined the program, 카지노 게임 컬렉션�like many young companies, we카지노 게임 컬렉션�d had to do a pivot based on everything we were learning and hearing back from people,카지노 게임 컬렉션� who were trying out their app. Wings told them that when it came to customers, 카지노 게임 컬렉션�You look at why they search out and use certain products.카지노 게임 컬렉션�

카지노 게임 컬렉션�That just opened up a whole world for us,카지노 게임 컬렉션� he says. What they were trying to create had a much broader application than just construction teams. The essence of collaboration wasn카지노 게임 컬렉션�t the tasks or the goals for the phases worked.카지노 게임 컬렉션� Instead, 카지노 게임 컬렉션�What everyone cared about was when do I show up, when do I leave, how many hours did I work and what카지노 게임 컬렉션�s my pay looking like?카지노 게임 컬렉션� Around that 카지노 게임 컬렉션�immutable카지노 게임 컬렉션� skeleton as he calls it, 카지노 게임 컬렉션�other contexts or information and learning opportunities could be added.카지노 게임 컬렉션� It would still be useful for the building trades, but ZAKOapp, as they renamed it (borrowing from a West African word, 카지노 게임 컬렉션�zakka,카지노 게임 컬렉션� meaning 카지노 게임 컬렉션�household카지노 게임 컬렉션� or 카지노 게임 컬렉션�personal network카지노 게임 컬렉션�) would be useful pretty much anywhere people worked together on a collaborative venture.

Another key point Wings taught them: 카지노 게임 컬렉션�Your customer and your user are often different.카지노 게임 컬렉션� They had initially assumed that all members of a team would have the app, but says Peers, 카지노 게임 컬렉션�for a guy in the trades working 12 hours a day, they don카지노 게임 컬렉션�t have time for the application.카지노 게임 컬렉션� They reworked ZAKOapp so that a user without it could receive text messages from it, 카지노 게임 컬렉션�that are detailed and rich and contain images,카지노 게임 컬렉션� but would not be forced into getting an account. Wings reiteration of what he calls 카지노 게임 컬렉션�the standard model business habits,카지노 게임 컬렉션� was helpful, says Peers, 카지노 게임 컬렉션�as was having the one-on-one sessions mixed with the group time. Even though they were on Zoom, they were valuable because of the feedback from the participants who aren카지노 게임 컬렉션�t in your field. That knowledge becomes hard to get access to once you are back in your own world.카지노 게임 컬렉션�

Since completing Wings, Peers continues to leverage QPI카지노 게임 컬렉션�s Startup Runway program and services. QPI is providing his company with a physical spot in the Seaway Coworking Building in Kingston where QPI is based and Peers continues to apply the lessons he learned. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�What I am deep in the middle of now and will be until next spring [2022] is an intense focus on the customer.카지노 게임 컬렉션� As he moves forward with further refining his app, he now knows, thanks to the program, 카지노 게임 컬렉션�to value high engagement with a small base rather than going viral and getting a bunch of users.카지노 게임 컬렉션�
