LOCAL WEB DEVELOPEMEMT COMPANY: VOWS TO GIVE AWAY, WEBSITES, HOSTING AND DOMAIN NAMES
President of Web Design firm ZoomDepot.com has new solutions for small businesses looking to compete with the larger internet players.
With every blue chip corporation taking their products and services to the web, it's really easy nowdays for small and emerging businesses to become lost online in the sea of big, name brand sites. Too many small business and nonprofits; which were the foundation of the mordern internet as a communications tool and inginter of the ecommerce boom; are being smothered by these large corporate sites. The biggest challenges that face small online businesses are their lack of access to Information Technolgy personnel, practices and affordable legal services. President and founder of ZoomDepot.com LLC, Thurman Richardson, spoke with Legal Zoom.com recently about the nature and creation of their unique business model that is grounded on servicing customers business needs and being available to serve their spritual needs also.
Legal Zoom.com Entrprenuer Profile:Tell us a little about your product or service.
How did you start your company?
ZoomDepot.com started originally as a side project. Many of the ZoomDepot
team held down other full time positions in either IT fields or ran their own
companies. We have all used each other from time to time to do work for friends
and family that needed specific web or business solutions. I decided to pool all
of our resources together so that our talents can be accessible in a centralized
location. Like contractors. But we are much more than that now.
"ZoomDepot was born out of the necessities of small businesses
everywhere..."
What or who inspired you to go into business for yourself?
I have always wanted to run a firm that helped others to realize
their dreams. My satisfaction comes from helping others. I was motivated into
service by the growing demand and referrals and a guest speaker in my
Sunday school class that posed the question to our class...
"What are you doing in your professional life that is creating a connection
between God and his people"
Well, The answer was simple. Nothing. Now I am. That's why ZoomDepot.com gives away fully
functional web sites , domain names and hosting to faith based organizations and non profits.
What were some of the startup hurdles you overcame?
Time was a big hurdle. Even though all of us were experts in our own areas; We each lacked in some other area. A room filled with smart people and no plan is just a crowed room. Creating an
effective business model for how we were going to make a profit and give as much of that profit away in the form of sites and services was next. Since most of us hold full time jobs; we looked for as much automation as possible.
Is there anything else you'd like to say about your company and/or product or service?
Absolutely.
"We eat our own dogfood"
We used LegalZoom.com to form our LLC, ZoomDepot.com and to trademark our brand.
All of the Legal Zoom services that emerging businesses need in order to get off the ground, we used to get off the ground; LegalZoom.com works; we recommend it and we are a better organinzation because of it.
ZoomDepot was born out of the necessities of small businesses everywhere. Through Prayer, Faith and Action; our team is able to offer you our gifts of web design, IT networking and business services; Empowering emerging businesses in need of Fortune 500 solutions on emerging business budgets. It’s your business. At ZoomDepot.com, We can make it better.
