SCALING KICKSTART HEALTH: FROM MVP TO A ROBUST, CUSTOMIZABLE PLATFORM

We began our journey with Kickstart by working on their MVP built on WordPress. While the MVP was a roaring success—thanks in part to the star power of Martin Johnsrud Sundby—it soon became evident that we needed a more robust, scalable solution. And so, we got to work on developing just that.

THE BUSINESS CHALLENGE

The success of the MVP brought a new set of challenges — daily maintenance became cumbersome and the introduction of custom features was resource-intensive. Another problem was keeping content updated for every client. In essence, one of the goals was to make the MVP platform more scalable and quick, so it was necessary to add new custom features and a lot of work to do.

Solution

We teamed up with Kickstart to make their already good WordPress platform even better: both user-friendly and scalable. MVP worked and even exceeded our expectations. Thanks to Martin Johnsrud Sundby, a skiing champ, the platform became super popular. But as more people joined, we realized WordPress couldn't handle the user mass. So now we're building a new, stronger and secure app that can grow with the business.
