Eat Your Own Cooking!

Working away at our head office in Orem, Utah and something interesting just happened: 

To me, there’s little more important than eating your own cooking. The point is this: If your cooking is so bad that you won’t eat it, how do you expect others to? 

In Curve’s case, it’s web technology. Why are we telling dentists they have to move to the web? Because it’s what we’re using!

We believe so much in the benefits of the web that our whole business relies on it, and I’m not just referring to the products we offer. To us the web is like a religion, it’s a way of life, it’s a lifestyle. All of our business systems and software is based off web technology: accounting, implementations, development, support, sales, etc. all rely on web-based technology. Our calendaring, email, documents, wiki, etc. are all delivered online through Google Docs Enterprise. We use tripit.com to manage our hectic travel schedules and even our entire phone system is based on a voice over IP network. 

We have offices in Utah, Canada, New Zealand and these tools are what allow us to stay connected. I feel as the founder of Curve, it’s my duty to make sure our team members are all leveraging web-based technology so we can better understand what we’re providing to our customers. 

Now never send me a word document again!
