As the
founder and president of Wade Instruments and Service,
Inc., I've been developing software applications since 1995 and was convinced
that every one of my programs
was BRILLIANT! Problem was, my potential clients didn't
quite seem to agree. Don't get me wrong... some
customers did see "the magic" and bought a
license or two - here and there. As a matter of fact,
one of the biggest florists in northeast Ohio saw the genius
as well and to this day uses one of my programs
religiously. But I finally figured out -
through what I call slap-side mule discipline - that this madness had
to end. If I couldn't develop a program that solved a
genuine need on a larger scale, I was simply wasting my
time.
Through dwindling sales and out of financial need, I took a part time job as an
electrical instructor at a well established local trade
school teaching night classes. After all - and at that
time - I had 20 years of experience in Industrial
Maintenance - most of which - was in the electrical field.
The courses that I taught were AC/DC Theory, Motor
Troubleshooting and Motor Control. I began in Motor
Controls and relied on my AutoCAD experience to help
develop material for each coming lesson. I quickly
realized that I could not design a schematic quickly and
easily. I spent far too many hours preparing for each
day's lesson. I was sure that there had to be a better
way.
With my programming experience, I thought, "OK,
I can design something that will allow me to create
drawings quickly and easily." And thus, EZ
Schematics was born.
To date, I've gained the trust of several hundred
customers around the world who also agree that my idea
was better. They saw the same vision that I had - draw
it quickly and simply - and when it prints... make it
purdy!
And "purdy" it is. Beats the heck out of
napkins and toilet paper! Anyway, hope to welcome you on
board!
