Designing and developing  technology can’t be everyone’s strong suit.  Small business owners must play to their strengths, and most of us are lucky to speak a second language much less write software. GoGoPin is a small business that has technology at its core, and was recognized by Microsoft’s /web profile.  Tech savvy? Take a gander. (No? Read on…)

Entrepreneurs wear many hats, but inevitably attending to core operations in any small business comes at the expense of time spent tending to tasks outside their comfort zone,  like online marketing.

Now business people from all sectors can manage their own online content using solely a keyboard and mouse, entirely from an internet browser.

Blog Today; Build Your Own Business Website Tomorrow.

There are as many blogs as there are specialists and then some. But only a few years ago, the number of people dubbing themselves ‘author’ was far smaller. Luckily, many tech savvy developers compiled blogging platforms for the rest of us. Those developers (you know who you are!) made publishing content on the web accessible to more people from all compass points geographic and virtual.

Technology developers and designers have core skill that affect practically all sectors of business today, and they too stand on the shoulders of giants.  Developers and designers at GoGoPin are using tools that you may never need to know (or want to). Tools such as:

• ASP.NET Framework
• IIS Web Server
• Visual Studio
• Silverlight

Each of these tools are continually under development as well, and the observable result is the convergence of design and development. Microsoft’s BizSpark program has provided  GoGoPin with an integrated development environment (lots of software and more). Subsequently, GoGoPin has designed, developed, and produced applications that affect businesses of all kinds.

What’s in it for Me?

What’s good for small business is good for all of us. What’s in it for small businesses is the ability of online business activities from people who never dreamed they would manage such activities for themselves. GoGoPin aims to put the power of the web in the hands of small business owners who aren’t technology developers or designers.

What’s in it for GoGoPin is the opportunity to play to GoGoPin’s strength: empowering offline businesses with online tools they can manage themselves.

Microsoft has recognized GoGoPin among other developing small businesses for taking the tools and running with them for a noble reason: That small business owners may build and manage a business website that serves their core business operation, without requiring specialized technical skills.
