Fantastic blog you’ve got here, I truly love it! I’m a freelancer you see and I just got it through a http://www.groovehq.com/blog/?p=2007#comment-1707 Love to see you as an option in the helpdesk+ arena. Site design is nice and clean but your logo… so weird. Looks like a heart & valves. What is it exactly? Modern Sea shell with 3 rainbows?

I’m not even talking about an app, just having a responsive design so that I can access it from my phone. Not only is it really difficult to use the support system from a smartphone, most of the time the replies don’t actually get sent out.

Love hearing people are investing in design and brand, it has been a real focus for my startup and also a passion of mine! I look forward to one day hiring a team and building a positive culture.

I have interacted with a lot of startup founders in India who don’t spend on necessary things like Advise, design, people and tools… And blame others for their failure. I hope a lot of startups read your article and get benefitted.
