JustRosters is a web application developed to make the creation and distribution of staff rosters easier, faster and more accurate. For a full list of features and a free trial, head over the JustRosters website.

Huge thanks to Alan, (lead designer) and Paul, (lead developer) for helping make this happen.

For those following the 8 part build, I will write part 6 and 7 soon.

Before I plunge into any details I would like to share a few facts from 2008:

  • The team logged 11,431.5 hours of work.
  • Excluding hosting clients, we helped 42 companies with their design, development and marketing needs.
  • We moved out of spare bedrooms into a 130sqm, centrally located, office (no more lunch time beach breaks :-( ).
  • We formed strategic partnerships with 2 decent sized companies, providing their clients with design, development and marketing, on their behalf.

So now the plans for ’09 …..

My first goal has been to build separate sites and identities for our 3 major service lines.

OK, so we started this one in November, but here they are:

marvelpromote.com – Marketing and reporting
marvelsites.com – Design and development
webhostingmarvel.com – Hosting and extras

These separate sites help us to stay focused on treating each major group of services like a stand-alone business. ‘Full service’ web development companies rarely offer this, and it can lead to overstretched, under qualified teams, and unhappy clients.

My second goal is to launch at least 2 web ‘start-ups’.

I feel it is important for any web service company to ‘walk the talk’ (displaying confidence in efficient, effective creation and promotion of new ideas). This will serve to demonstrate out competence in all aspects of web development and marketing and will hopefully expose us to new clients as well.

My third goal is for myself and the team to actively contribute to a blog.

We advise our clients to do it, and we have plenty to share, so its about time we started! Keep an eye on our blog for tips and tricks, new product launches, spectacular specials and any amazing, random information we find interesting. You can subscribe to the entire MIG blog, or your specific category of interest by using the links to the left (under categories).

My forth and final goal is to keep the team tight, the business profitable and above all else -keep the clients, employees and myself happy!
