Foxbox Founder's Update - Summer 2024

Aim for indispensable

My espresso machine has become a more significant pillar of my life than I’d care to admit. It’s the cornerstone of my morning routine, my reliable rescue for sleepy afternoons, and my favorite ritual to perform for guests around our kitchen table.

Would I survive without my espresso machine? Arguably yes. Am I interested in such experiments? Absolutely not. To me, it’s become indispensable.

Which is the exact rare distinction any digital product should aim for. With that in mind, Foxbox is rallying around a new north star that guides both how we approach our work, and what we encourage anyone spearheading a digital product to do: Aim for indispensable.

In short: When a product becomes indispensable to customers, it becomes indispensable to the business that built it. For us, it’s more than a tagline, but a built-in way to ensure we approach our work with intention, enthusiasm and an eye on creating long term impact.
