1. Hey Heath, it’s great to have you here on Xemion and I’m sure that you have lots of fantastic stuff to tell us about Glide Interactive. But, first things first — I heard that you’re quite the entrepreneur, what types of businesses did you create/manage before you launched Glide Interactive in 2002?

Heath: Beside Glide Interactive, I currently own a computer store and IT company. Previously, I’ve owned an eBay store and several other online stores.

As Glide Interactive the company, how do you face these challenges and make sure that you’re always producing the best work possible?
