What We Care About
One Team: We dont think of ourselves as Product Managers Engineers Data Analysts or Product Designers. Beyond denoting skill sets and areas of expertise we dont think departments matter. Wed rather align ourselves to the goals were working to achieve and make sure we have the necessary subject matter expertise to drive meaningful impact. We strive to orient ourselves around customer problems TOGETHER getting the right people with the right context in the right rooms(Zooms) to solve problems holistically.
We question everything and are precious about nothing: Ideas can and should come from anywhere and we arent tied to our own. We are not the exclusive purveyors of great ideas. We proactively source inputs from all directions. We talk to our customers regularly and are quick to change course if we know theres a better or more impactful way to deliver value.
We consider the customer journey in all of our decisions: We understand that no interaction exists in a silo and therefore understand how important every single one is. We ensure our strategy sets prospective and new customers up for success and drives longterm retention. We answer questions and address problems early and proactively. We understand the value of different channels initiatives and messages and know how to holistically articulate impact and advocate for prioritization.
We Execute For Impact: When we stick the landing we have the opportunity to impact small business owners across the country. Our continued growth is directly correlated to the outsized value we produce for our busy customers.
We Derisk Assumptions: We are not beholden to ideas. We have goals and believe everything beyond that is a series of hypotheses to validate. We constantly ask ourselves Whats the most important thing I should be working on right now How do I confirm or reject that assumption as fast as possible. We rarely have timelines/deadlines and constantly take in new information and adjust our priorities accordingly. We dont expect to be perfect the first time but by derisking assumptions and remaining customerfocused we tend to be pretty on target.
