Text isn’t dead, it’s just underrated but that’s about to change – with Mosio CEO Noel Chandler

By Rob WoodbridgeOctober 14, 2010 3 Comments

If you listen to the hype around mobile applications you’d get the impression that text as a tool is dead – even if app-capable smartphones are only on 25% of hips out there.

Noel Chandler if ok with the fact that everyone is focused on a small portion of the market, it allows him to slowly and steadily expand his business, Mosio, while infiltrating multiple markets (as diverse as librarians and field force automation) with innovative uses of this “dead” technology.

Noel knows text. He knows how to focus his business on what’s important (revenue). He knows where his value is to his customers and they love what he’s doing.

Enjoy!
