Director
Plus2 Pty Ltd
(Privately Held; 1-10 employees; Internet industry)
June 2007 — Present (2 years 6 months)
Plus2 builds cool web applications...
we believe that from the first step to the last, using websites should be a self-evident process. The customer should be able to “get it” - what it is and how to use it - without expending any effort thinking about it. When websites adhere to this simple principle customers feel understood, cared for and respected. -
