Izeni is Official
Many of my readers will already know that Gabe and I have been busy launching a business for the last few months.
Well, we’ve finally got Izeni officially incorporated, and since we hope to launch our first product soon, we decided we’d better get something of a corporate website thrown together.
It’s really not much content-wise, but it is live; and it’s just in time for us to start pumping the engines of hype and hearsay. Check it out.
Our other (product) website, which is where the majority of our development has been, will be launched shortly.
So, how do you know you’re a developer in a bootstrapping high-tech startup? You have neither business cards nor a corporate website until your product is nearly ready to hit the market. This is pretty much opposite the spend-all-your-money-making-yourself-look-cool approach that many companies take. I hope our product-first approach is vindicated, but we’ll see. :)
Anyway, sign up for Izeni news updates, and we’ll let you know how it goes.
Until then, anyone know where we can get some great business cards?

I’ve been asked a few times how “Izeni” is pronounced.
It’s “Eye Zen ‘E’”.
I know, that’s not exactly phonetic, but it will do. :)

Well congrats my friends, I hope it goes well. I’ll be watching closely for the products you guys plan on getting out to market.
Also, if you are still looking to buy business cards, overnightprints.com did the UTOS cards that I designed. Very nice looking.
Cheers,

Are you guys still looking for someone to design the business cards? I’ve got some good contacts for design and printing. Let me know.

Dude:
Go with the brochure business cards. Mine are trifold, standard sized, printed front and back.
Everyone remarks on them and give a chance to tell your story in a longer form.
But they’re not so long that you gotta write a ton.
There’s a local outfit that does them. I forget the name.
Congrats on the launch. i signed up for the beta.
