When do you realize that you maybe on to something? At the idea level? The first iteration of the site? Friend and family comments (always positive :)? Or when you get your first paying customer? I guess all of the above. We've been pleasantly surprised at the amount of traffic and the generous feedback on this site. The surprise however? Not much activity for car certificates (yet!). Though the site has really been up for a few days I am astonished to see how much interest there is for our Vacation Certs vs Car Certs. Don't get me wrong as a small company we are grateful for all the business and interest just surprised that Vacation is so much more popular than cars!

We have launched! This has been debated in our offices for quite a while. The question was, do we get a professional blog writer to write for this section or should one of us do it? Well that got settled quickly. We would write it. It is our baby and we’d like to speak directly to our customers.

Would have been great if we could claim to have re-written the rules and or re-invented the wheel. We didn’t. Out of a need for us and our family and after weeks of frustrating searches and dead ends we decided to start our own company. They say the best / most useful companies are born out of an immediate need /necessity for the founders themselves.

Getting a discount on a vacation shouldn’t be hard!

We will write often and share our thoughts, comments and most important experiences. We hope you are going to enjoy this as much as we are.
