I just wrote a post on remind101's blog about a pilot we ran with a local high school. The pilot was by no means perfect. In the post, there are real screen shot's of user feedback. Some good. Some bad. Some great. You may ask, why would you actually tell the public of your imperfections, are you crazy? Well, I have a very strong belief in being honest & transparent. We know remind101 isn't perfect and we're constantly working to make it better.

I'd much rather admit our imperfections and talk about what we are doing/have done to enhance the system. I think this builds trust with users & customers. It allows for more flexibility when there is a bug or the system doesn't work correctly. My hope, is that they know I'm here to answer any questions and help fix the problem. 

This may not make much sense without me explaining it...questions? Just ask!

Last week my good friends @cagarland & @hillarykw inspired me.  I haven't blogged in a long time and I couldn't, for the life of me figure out what to write about.  I'm doing some cool stuff, but thought so much about making it perfect, that I never ended up writing. So, here it is people...an update on me.

I graduated from Michigan State a few months back, I'm 23 and am starting a few companies for the first time. I hope readers, students especially, learn from this blog and the many mistakes and modest successes I've had.  

Social Bonfire & remind101 are the companies I've started.  remind101 will Beta launch at Michigan State this Monday!  Biggest lesson so far? Work with great people who excel at your what you aren't good at.  No one is good at everything.

More posts to come, if there's anything you'd like me to write about or have ideas please feel free to leave a comment, email @ kopfbret@gmail.com or Tweet me.
