Jon’s maker story 🎢

“I built TeamGreet to make team birthday celebrations a lot more special for remote teams. Celebrating a work birthday when your team are working from home, remotely, or in different time zones is pretty much impossible. In the office you could pass a birthday card around to sign but that’s over for a lot of people now. I’d heard of teams writing messages in a shared Word document which is sweet but also a bit… meh. So I built TeamGreet!

I know I’m not the first site to offer something like this but the other services I looked at were too complicated for non-technical people or really clunky and slow, or just didn’t work on mobile. I’ve tried to build TeamGreet so it’s really easy to use, super friendly to sign cards and with great customer support. So far our users love it 🤞🏼.

As for some of the obstacles along the way, I didn’t have a baby when I started! When she arrived I thought I could probably continue dev in between looking after her. I was so wrong! Babies are terrible coding assistants. So I dropped all development for a long time but was itching to finish it. I think I got my priorities right on that 🙂
