(33:03 | Jenny Maxwell)  • "Efficiency is key in business. And I felt like I was being so inefficient by having so many different tabs open. I was using my Google Docs. I was using, you know, my to-do, my budget, my calendar. I had a Microsoft Publisher was how I was doing my layouts and mood boards from Pinterest. I was just all over the place. And it wasn't easy for me to share with a client. And it wasn't easy for me to share with my vendors. And so I had a couple of problems going on. I couldn't collaborate with vendors very well. And I wasn't organized" (38:25 | Jenny Maxwell) • "I wanted anyone that's involved in Mary's wedding to be able to talk about Mary's wedding. And anyone that happens to have questions about AV can talk about AV. And so I wanted to build that collaboration piece so that you're not looking through DMs and emails and Facebook Messenger and text messages trying to find answers to these things. It's all right there. And if someone, say the client, might want to know a question, they can directly ask it there as well." (43:18 | Jenny Maxwell) • “You are definitely a very courageous, forward-thinking business owner, not just an event planner, but doing a software that marries with your passion, that's a winning strategy because you can feel the pain of the problem and you can also feel the relief of the solution. And you're surrounded by a good community of all event planners who can give you feedback to constantly evolve the product, which is great. Congratulations!” (51:33 | May Silvers)   Links Connect with me at: [email protected] Website: www.mayyeosilvers.com.
