Reaction to the Smibs Launch

Friday, December 5th, 2008

This has been an extremely busy week for Smibs with our launch into full public beta. The response has been epic, and we would like to thank all of the private beta users that have given us endless support and suggestions to get our applications to this point. As well, Smibs would like to formally welcome all the new members of SmibsNet and Doorbell users that have joined us over the week.

Finally, we would like the thank TechCrunch and contributor Jason Kincaid for all the positive coverage during this and prior launches. TechCrunch is considered a leader in news and technology websites and we would like to express our appreciation for their continued support of our Canadian start-up. See you on SmibsNet!

We Have Successfully Launched into Public Beta!

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

It took a few late nights and more then a couple pots of coffee, be we have successfully launched SmibsNet and Doorbell into Public Beta.  We definitely need to thank the tireless work from our programmers, designers and writers that helped to release the software.  Our gratitude also goes out to Yellow Pencil and Toybox Media Inc. for technical and media support during our launch process.

We also would like to recognize all the great feedback we got from our users while in Private Beta.  Your suggestions helped us to create a truly intuitive and interactive product.

We certainly appreciate all the press coverage we have been receiving so far from influential blogs like TechCrunch, TechVibes and Ryan A Graves.  Here some of the things they have been saying so far:

“I created an account and found the entire process to be fairly painless. Setting up my personal profile and creating a company was simple – the interface is friendly and easy-to-understand.” Mack Male, TechVibes.com

“This is exactly the type of startup that will work and survive in this economic environment. They have a product that will help so many small business work more efficiently and provide value to these businesses.” Ryan A Graves, ryanagraves.com

Smibs Launches into Public Beta

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

Today we are excited to announce the invite-only Public Beta launch of SmibsNet and Doorbell! Inspired by the advice of our testers, we have worked hard since our Private Beta launch in June to refine our product to meet the unique needs of our users, maximizing the efficiency and usability of our interface and applications.

As I mentioned, our Public Beta will be invite only, giving our current users the ability to invite their friends to join them on our system and to find out how SmibsNet and Doorbell seamlessly integrates networking as well as contact and opportunity management.

We built SmibsNet and Doorbell because we saw a need for “sales software for non-sales people”— now we want to know your needs. Instead of building and perfecting our system in isolation, we want you to help us create an evolving product, tailored to its users.

Hope to see you all very soon on SmibsNet!

Smibs gets covered on TechCrunch

Wednesday, June 11th, 2008

We just got our first post on TechCrunch, one of the leading technology and start-up business blogs. We are honored to be covered at this early stage, given that we just launched into private beta. While we’ll be letting in more and more people from our beta sign-up list, we are focused on providing a quality service right from the start. So we’ll take all feedback very seriously and we’ll be working hard to improve towards our public beta release in Juli. Meanwhile you can sign-up for our private beta if you want to be amongst the first to help us change the way small businesses work.

A big thank you to the TechCrunch team and happy birthday for their third anniversary!
