The Quizzle team celebrated its 100,000th Quizzler at a team party last night. It was a wild 2008! Quizzle grew from 1,000 Quizzlers at the end of February ‘08 (back when Quizzle launched) to hit 100,000 earlier this week! Quizzle Nestle 100-Grand candy bars were flowing freely this week.
Today, I’d like to take a moment to thank the amazing Quizzle Team, our partners, and YOU for turning this Dan Gilbert vision into a reality. Quizzle accomplished its goal of building a truly-free educational tool to help average people get a better understanding of their home, credit, money and life!
So, I’d like to give a HUGE THANKS to a lot of great people. First, thank you to our IT team (who’s the ”#1 IT place to work” in the nation – 3 years running), our client relations team (who create new ‘raving fans’ every day), our marketing team (who dream-up cool new Quizzle tools and generate nation-wide word-of-mouth buzz – on $zero advertising).
Next, I’d like to thank our elite partners - Quicken Loans (for helping so many people improve their mortgage situation), Experian (for providing credit reports and scores), Cyberhomes (for calculating Quizzlers home values), Onboard Informatics (for providing amazing neighborhood information) and In-House Realty (for matching clients with the best agents in the country).
And finally, a big thanks you to YOU, the people who chose to live in Quizzland and reap the benefits of the free tool! You’ve played a huge role in the direction of Quizzle by sending us well-over 2000 pieces of feedback (all of which we’ve responded personally to). Keep the feedback coming – your ideas will continue to drive the vision and direction of Quizzle in the exciting months to come.
In an upcoming blog post, I’ll let you in on the secrets of some cool new stuff coming to Quizzle in ’09 (but that’s for another day). Today I just wanted to say THANK YOU to the team. Thanks for your DEDICATION to the project, COMMITMENT to the vision, EXECUTION of the details and constant FOCUS on the client experience!
That was one heckuva Quizzlating year! Thank you and Happy Quizzling.
