A Week After Launch, What’s Up?
It’s been roughly one week since we launched our web and mobile applications, Cardtonic. It has not been a piece of cake, but we are still here, driving a hard bargain and burning the midnight oil because success does not grow on trees.
We previously published a journal concerning how we were able to garner 1000 active users in 3 days, but as mentioned, it wasn’t going to end there.
We have taken it upon ourselves to tell our stories as we progress, as opposed to the traditional thinking that taught us to master an “elevator pitch,” that is, quickly describing what it is your business does. We have come to understand that even though direct marketing has its place and time, after a while, it sounds like repetition and starts to lose its luster, and while they usually do a good job of describing what we do, they almost always fail to explain why.
Enough Story, It’s One Week, What’s Up?
Nursing customers to use the app and trust the process dictate the challenges, but being a business we know the onions, dictates the positive side of the equation.
The major challenge we encountered was the “crashing issue”, as our Android mobile app kept crashing on Android versions less than 6.0, a yawa we weren’t looking forward to. This took a lot of efforts from our developers to figure out what exactly the issue was, but it’s fixed now, we released an update, we are good.

The reviews have been encouraging as well, we got over 60 reviews on our app pages in the first week and the only two negatives were relating to the “crashing issue”, seems like a lot of people welcomed the development, good to know they are all over the moon.
The Call To Adventure
Like the moment in Star Wars when Luke Skywalker meets Ben Kenobi in the desert, every journey starts with a framing moment when the protagonist is called to begin a new adventure, we have begun, but we wish you could join us, we can’t do it alone.
