SparkBase: A Successful SaaS Gateway

Sparkbase is one of the technology leaders for the processing of gift and loyalty card transactions. This company has had consistent growth of more than 150% annually according to their website, and their CEO Doug Hardman, had some inspiring thoughts to share in an interview I read recently. Click here to check out Hardman’s thoughts on how he leveraged his company’s competitive positioning and best practices process to take SparkBase to the next level. They have raised a small Series A round of venture funding, and have obviously put that money in the right places.

This software as a service platform removes the middleman and allows its customers to add and mange their merchants, as well as process gift card and loyalty/rewards transactions. In an article I also read, Hardman says, “Figure out what it is you’re good at, do it better than anyone else and resist temptation to divert from that.” A simple statement that is full of wisdom. I’m sure this company will continue to do well.
