When you live every day in the midst of platform growth, it’s often difficult to judge the changes happening around you. It’s not unlike having children. They’re growing and you know it, but they’re with you all the time. The extent of the growth doesn’t really hit you until you see a photo or video from the recent past and realize just how much they’ve grown in such a short time. That’s a bit how I feel right now.
Take a look at this 60 second visual history of RealSatisfied buyer and seller survey returns in the United States. Every blip represents a returned client survey across the history of our presence in the United States… from our beta launch in December 2011 to August 21, 2015. (Double click on your area to get a closer look.) It’s a powerful illustration of the adoption of our platform across the country. Holy cow! I can’t believe how much this child has grown. I want to pinch it’s virtual cheeks and give it a hug. And I can’t wait to see what it looks like in a year.
Yep, you should stand back for just a moment to realize what you and the RS team has accomplished since those first days in 2011. This is BIG and there is much more to come. Congrats!
Thank you, Jim.
