Our story.<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Building a business\u2014it ain\u2019t for the faint of heart.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

There\u2019s a lot of romance in the idea of building a business. And then you actually start to do it and it\u2019s oh-my-god-what-have-I-gotten-myself-into? <\/em>But entrepreneurship\u2014founding and scaling a company? It gets into your blood. You can\u2019t go back.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

For the team at 321\u2014we\u2019ve worked in big established places, but along the way we found we were truly passionate about building something, often from nothing. And helping companies like yours do the same.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Success has a thousand mothers and failure is an orphan.<\/h5>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

We\u2019ve all heard a version of this line. But it\u2019s not entirely accurate. The truth is that success is the result <\/em>of a thousand failures. Over decades of combined marketing and sales experience, we\u2019ve made all the mistakes that people don\u2019t like to talk about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But we also learned every step along the way. Our many successes (and we\u2019re happy to share them) came from being able to turn those learnings into durable systems, reliable processes, and the best practices you can count on to deliver results that will show up on your balance sheet.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

But the point we really want to make here is this: we say we\u2019re like you because we are<\/em>. We\u2019ve sat in the office wondering how to make payroll, but we\u2019ve also sat back and toasted the closing of a huge deal. We\u2019ve won in marketing. And we\u2019ve won in sales. Let\u2019s talk about how we can help you do the same.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
