Turning 5

A short note I shared when Rocketium turned 5.

Originally published on LinkedIn in April 2020.

"Wow, has it really been that long?!"

Knowing your company's age should be straightforward. So why do I struggle with this question?

Was Rocketium born on April 1st, 2015 when Anurag and I left TaxiForSure to create a self-improvement app? Or November 2015 when we pivoted to help anyone share their ideas through interactive cards? Or June '16 when we became a video SaaS product? Or October '18 when we evolved to a B2B video platform? Or October '19 when we launched image and video automation for enterprises?

Like with people, a company is as old as it thinks it is. Rocketium has the curious mind of an infant that sees a universe of opportunities. Everyone at Rocketium is excited to create something unique that delights our customers. Where others see a winding path or a 5-year slog, we see continuous learning, improvement, and deep expertise.

Despite these troubling times, we believe Rocketium will not only survive but grow.

• we continue our double-digit monthly growth. Customers are staying and finding more ways to use our platform. 📈

• we are almost profitable and will soon master our own destiny 💰

• we have a fabulous team and a growing band of well-wishers 👫
