Six Months Status
We are just shy of our six month mark at Mobile Research. As of last monday our headcount is officially 6 people. That is fulltime employees, not counting the consultants. We are so close to launching the product I'm starting to get really anxious. Right now everyone is really heads down and cranking on getting the product launched. Everyone is working a ton of hours. Most days when I arrive at work, I fell like I just left. The mood is good though. Everyone is focused and working hard but I think we all know how what we are working on individually fits into the grand scheme of the product.
I've got great guys working for me!
It will be really nice to launch the US product, but then we are going to go straight into starting on the UK, and after that we are looking towards asia. Probably Korea first. We are really going to have to staff up for that because it takes a trained person about 2.5 days to fully profile a phone. Going into a market and having to tackle 140 phone to start can take some time. I'm pretty sure that we could keep 30 people busy full time profiling devices for the next year.

"I'm ready to launch"
