PSP Stands for Pacific Software Publishing

6月

22日

Back in 1997 to 2003, PSPinc published series of software design to help people write Japanese on English Windows.

It is funny that we still get a support call for KanjiKit once or twice a year. One point, one of our user lost install disk #3. Well, we had to scramble to find the set of installation disks. We found one unopened KanjiKit package and found installations disks. When we try to make a copy, we realized we have no blank 3.5" disk nor computer with disk drive.

We send user the complete package ... That was the last product support for KanjiWORD since we have no more product. That was last year!!!

Customers are aging!

Alway look ahead because target is always ... well aging.

Well, it is a fact of life that everybody gets old. I am not saying it is bad. But you business needs to address this fact. Think about ages of your customer for a minute. How old were they when they became your customer? How old are they now? When they retire (they will soon or later), who is going to be your contact person?

You need to start working with the next generations of customers to survive. We are getting older too. So, we really need t address who is succeeding you as well. I hear many story that the father passed on their business to their child and you lost your account. That will happen if you are not careful and be ready.

1987 in July, I formed the company in Mercer Island called Pacific Software Publishing, Inc. The original office was located in the historic (just plain old) Shorewood Apartment. This year we are celebrating 30th anniversary of this company.

When you design a SaaS business model, you really have to think about the murphy's law.

Finally rain seems to have passed on and sunny and warm weather is here. But I am traveling to Japan and Taiwan starting tomorrow. It is going to be very warm. But I am really looking forward to visiting Taiwan for the first time.

>65 = 25%

5月

What is this equation?

>65 = 25%

No it is not a math. It is the population off Japan. 25% of people in Japan are over 65 years old. That is an alarming number. And to ease the generation gap, older people are learning how to use computers.

This is one of the non-profit organization PSPinc support in Japan to teach elderlies how to use computers.
