And they had nothing to show for it.

And 12 months wasted time.

So that was mid-2019, late 2019.

And we had been thinking about to go further with our software.

We wanted to build integrations.

We had a number of

features we wanted to add that are very just laundromat specific that would never get included in any other point of sale software.

And then also ringing in our ears were these other companies that were kind of on a parallel journey to us saying that they had blown six figures on software development with nothing to show for it.

And in fact, going to a semi-competitor saying, can you help us?

Or can we just send people your way so we don't lose them on this?

Because at the time we weren't doing pickup and delivery features.

We do now.

So started searching for how could we do this?

How could we build it in a way, our own software that was cloud-based, that we had control over the development of it.

We knew that there was a lot we needed to discover along the way.

So it wasn't like we had a perfect picture of what we needed to build.

And as I started getting quotes from various different

development houses and resources.

And I mean, even just looking at things on Upwork, which we had had a small experience with that before that went sideways, which we can talk about, about a developer just evaporating when you needed them.

It's like, okay, we're going to throw six figures at developing this version one.
