Small is beautiful for Web 2.0 start-ups
February 7, 2006 /
Jason Fried, president of start-up 37Signals, is a bona fide software entrepreneur. But he wants nothing to do with the traditional model of starting a software company.
Rather than try to crack into the business market with a complicated, pricey product, Fried and his colleagues chose to stake out a fairly narrow sliver of the software world: hosted personal organizers and project management applications.
To Fried, the old way of doing things–where a start-up’s success hinges on a few well-heeled customers willing to shell out big dollars–is history.
