I am reinventing my small company. We’ve been Windows-based for years.
We are launching a new cloud-based interactive speech therapy subscription service next month.
Healthcare services are very challenging for innovative companies because the healthcare industry requires both product/service innovation and business model innovation (see The Innovator’s Prescription for more on *that*). Just having a better service isn’t enough because we’re competing with “free” (provided by insurance)…
And we’re self-funded. That means we need to be scrappy, smart, and get things done.
