One of the most important aspects of a good business or company is one that supports each other. Not just with moral support but when issues come up that need to be taken care of. A good business has people that aren’t afraid to step in when and where it’s needed. Which I’ve learned first hand starting my own business. It doesn’t matter if its part of your job or your problem; if you can fix it, take care of it. Don’t worry about someone getting upset you did their job. Think of it as a a bomb that needs to be taken care of now before it screws up the whole team. You’re more likely to upset people for doing nothing then by doing something. 

That’s something I’m aware of when looking for people to work with. The people who stand out are not the ones that just do their job and then call it done but someone who’s not afraid to jump in and help when it’s needed. 

You hear people say it all the time “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” That seems like such a copout, is that really the best way to run a business? Especially if you’re trying to innovate. Personally it seems backwards to me… how are you going to move your company and our collective culture forward if you’re always just going with what works. Shouldn’t you be pushing yourself and your business? Otherwise that mentality can stand in the way of progress. And at some point you’ll get left behind.

LooseKeys wants to work with the businesses that are pushing our culture forward. The ones that would rather break something to make it even better. A business that sees something that is commonplace and widely used like… socks and then tries to figure out how to make it even better. Nothing is ever perfect, there is always a way it can be improved on. Everything can be made better, if its an animation, socks or getting deals on goods and services. So stop worrying about if it’s broke and not why not just think about how you can fix it and make it even better.
