I'd be pleased to chat with anyone about the fun of a failed startup! Seriously though, stay tuned for more posts and lessons I've learned.


Could you talk about how you guys decided on the design for the front page? Or, more generally, home much time/money did you spend on marketing and was it in house or an agency?

IMO, it's pretty shocking. Your target market general population, people that don't have tech skills, etc. and the background on text look isn't exactly, um. . . inviting.


Sure... We did everything in house. For most the time it was two of us working on the startup -- like many startups in general -- and the design was conceived of by the lead developer.

We were investing $$ in a new design towards the end, but ran out of cash before we could get it out the door!


"It’s here. After more than eight months of development, we’ve finally launched our pride and joy, BricaBox."

That might have been a little on the longish side


I'm looking forward to them... don't let us down.

Best of luck on your ventures going forward.
