Building quality and affordable apps and websites

At Founders Approach, we understand startups and small businesses because we have built multiple ones ourselves. My co-founder and I quit our full-time jobs to build and launch a mobile app. We grew to 50k users and 7.5k businesses on the platform. We focused on the lean startup methodology where you build simple and iterate quickly. We understand what it takes to launch and scale a business and we have taken everything we learned to help startups and small businesses, who have tech needs such as apps, websites, or other platforms.
