Fun facts about me:
I am an oxymoron – I love to get into details but thrive at working at a high level. My seniors, during my corporate life, used to find me very difficult to manage, but I was their deal maker. I believe in hyper communication but I have my secrets.
The company under 20 words:
MIFON is an award-winning anti-theft and alarm-enabled phone tracker app offering a complete protection system for mobile phones.
What my company name & logo means:
MIFON means my phone, that’s very intimate: up close & personal.
The MIFON logo signifies the personal attachment of phone to our personal life space and security.
Why I started the company & my journey so far:
A whopping 33{6f3b5ca5ace692369bf4704a1330bfd533e2599dde4b418ebc2aa913bbe9723c} of users lose their phones every year. There is a large segment of users who consider their smartphones the most valuable item they own. Many save for as much as 5 months to buy their smartphones. MIFON was created to reduce this pain.
My lightbulb advice:
Remember the mantra is hard work, persistence & perseverance and results will follow. Keep your eyes & ears locked on the customer.
I am looking for:
Investors, Partners
