MSMP 45: Matt Mower on Software Navigation Business

Whether you run a small business or heading multiple businesses, there would always be several activities going on every time, and there would always be numerous changes happening simultaneously. These realities pose a challenge to handle at once and not let work become chaotic. 

This is why to stay on top of things, Matt Mower, a software builder, and developer advocates the use of an effective software tool designed for every business need. 

Joining me on this episode of Mads Singers Management Podcast is no less than Matt himself to talk about how meaningful and useful software can be used in businesses regardless of the organizational size.

Matt’s background involved building software as he worked in software companies for years, including software building mostly in the world start-ups and SMEs. 

Over the years, Matt gained a profound understanding of HOW software usage makes a significant business impact once tools are identified to focus on clarifying how an investment could then turn to a relevant output. 

This approach involves enabling people to become agents of change complemented with the targeted tool or software to solve the problem instead of just presenting the software as it is.
