Listen Later

On this episode of saaslife.fm, Chris McAleenan shares specific updates and highlights progress made on the PipeTech Project. In the past week, he did not get in 40 hours of work, but did manage to find windows of time while being a family man.

Sam Schrup understands the need to triage and focus on what’s most important. He’s well-rested and relaxed because TextRetailer released quick carts and merchants are starting to use them.

Highlights from this Episode:

  • Milestone: Core of PipeTech Project is “done.” Paying customers onboard soon.
  • Product Positioning: PipeTech has a reputation and expectations to uphold 
  • Scope Creep: Features and expectations are deeper than traditional MVP/MSP.
  • PipeTech Promise: Help customers supercharge and utilize their data. 
  • Extract, Load, Transform (ETL): Get data in and out of system to make decisions.
  • Essentials Set: Greenfield data, gain customer feedback on features to set core.
  • Asset vs. Inspection Data: Internal knowledge to normalize mapping, structure.
