It's enlightening to see that you had the market/product match first, and did business development only after. Thanks for the inspiration, keep up the good work! Hi Patrick!

I just found the articles and it's relevant to what I've been thinking about these days -- if it's feasible to move to Japan and start up an mISV there, or if it makes more sense to start the company in the US and run it remotely from Japan. I had just read this post which makes it sound unreasonably difficult: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/01/28/world/asia/28generation.html?_r=1 But sounds like you're doing well having switched to this full time. Good luck! Patrick, great website!

Dad and I are BEAMING. Brian forwarded your link, I am happy to say. It is the middle of the night here, and I have just read your entire 'blog'. I get the general 'gist' of things. I am quite impressed and that is often not the case, as you might remember. :) Keep servicing women, teachers, the untapped population in the online marketplace. From one teacher to another, job well done!. Kudos, Patrick! We'll see you soon! Mom and Dad Patrick,

It'd be great to see how many of the principles apply to other software products (hopefully all of them). Extra time with more products but that could also mean taking another step up the outsourcing chain. Just curious if you have repeated the process at all.
