Hello,

My name is Michael Carr.

I am the one who is making all these bold claims and promises. I have been a software engineer for over 30 years. Most of my career has been spent developing business applications. I am very familiar and well trained in going into a business, analyzing its information workflow and discovering its inefficiencies. I then write a document that explains the issues I have found and propose a solution. If the business owner gives me the green light, then I and the team I work with, design and implement a software application that fixes those issues. Throughout my career I have done this analysis, design and implementation a hundred times.

In the late 1990's I worked at a company called Global Music One in Santa Monica, California. In those days cell phones were still in the early stages of development. I was tasked with writing the phone software to download a music file (.mp3) from our servers and install it as the default ringtone. Even though I was a software engineer, I had never written code for the phone before. In those days, the tools that were available to write phone code were very limited which made this a technically challenging project. The most unusual and fascinating thing about that project was Shane Dewing the CTO (Chief Technology Officer) who figured out a marketing strategy to give away free ringtones and generate revenue. I could not have been more impressed with him. To me, that was a David Copperfield moment. The company went on to generate thousands and thousands of dollars by giving away free ringtones!

Fortunately, I learned the lesson well. Little did I know that two decades later, I would incorporate that same marketing strategy in ShuttleNomix to give away free shuttle rides and generate revenue.

Thank you Shane.
