In all of my trips around the sun, 2014 has been the most amazing. On March 20th, I witnessed the birth of my daughter. It's cliché to say, but she truly is the best thing that's ever happened to me. Teaching her to walk, reading her a book each night before bed, seeing her smile when I walk into the room... they're always the highlights of my day. Almost equally exciting has been the launch of Chief Products. A company built for those that share an appetite for adventure, a love for nature and an enthusiasm for life. The growth and positive response to my passionate endeavour has been wonderfully satisfying.
Since Chief Products rolled open the doors, we've received 35 customer product reviews on our website. 34 of those 35 reviews have been 5 stars out of 5, with amazingly positive comments like:
The 1 review we received that wasn't 5 stars out of 5...
Having this 4 Star Review as our worst-to-date, is probably one of my proudest accomplishments for Chief Products. These reviews and the emails and phone calls I receive from happy customers wanting to let me know how much they appreciate what we're building, is something that means a lot to me and keeps me working enthusiastically to grow Chief Products into something greater. It's a wonderful feeling to have such a positive response to something your passionate about. Thank you to all of Chief Products enthusiastic customers!
When I look back on 2014, I'm amazed at how far we've travelled. On March 1st, Chief Products made its first sale and it's been full-speed-ahead ever since. With all that's happened since that day, it's hard to believe it's only been 11 months. The launch of our website along with 6 new products and all the challenges that come with that, (organising suppliers, photography, packaging, warehousing, installation instructions, support articles, shipping, logistics, etc.). Just in the last part of 2014 we expanded into international markets, added new team members, shot some of our first videos and added over 100 new features and enhancements to our website. So much has happened it's hard to keep track.
If you haven't visited our website recently, here are a few of the major enhancements:
We're definitely not stopping there. We've got a lot of great things in the works for 2015!
It's been a great year and I look forward to meeting more of our customers out on the trails and around the campfire.
Cheers,
Bill
