And So It Begins…

Hello, and welcome to the official v2Commerce Blog! My name is Michael Sanford, and I’m the founder, innovator, creator (and whatever else you’d like to call me) of v2Commerce.

On this blog, you’re going to see a lot of activity. You’ll see posts about ecommerce in general, well done ecommerce sites that inspire us, excellent graphic design, and of course, TONS of information about v2Commerce, it’s features, and how to use it to maximize your online business ventures.

v2Commerce has been my passion since my last company, ActiveInstall, was acquired in 2003. Life isn’t always a walk in the park, and I’ve certainly had my share of bumps and bruises along the way, but my passion for this product, and my vision of what I want to provide for online merchants had been steadfast and has always kept me coming back to this project.

My promise to you, my readers, is an honest and candid discussion. Nothing is taboo — we can even talk about competitive products.  I won’t feed you lip service, and I’ll tell it like it is. In the end, I am pretty confident that you’ll see that I (and v2Commerce as a company) am absolutely committed to top-notch customer care, and providing the worlds best platform for operating successful online stores.

As of the time of this writing, v2 is not yet publicly available, but for the last 18 months, we have been working with, and helping a small handful of customers who run their sites on v2. This hands on, real-world experience has been a valuable part of the development process, and I believe our “skin in the game” approach to launching new customer sites will ensure that when we do go totally public, it will be with a product that has a history of proving it’s worth and value in the marketplace.

Thanks for at least taking the time to stick with me through this one post. If you’re even a little interested in v2 and what we are planning, then please subscribe to this blog.  Tell your friends, link to us, Digg us, heck – just go open your front door and just shout our name up at the sky.

v2 is here.  Game On.
