Sam Schutte, a software developer, was out of work and studying for his MBA; he and his wife were expecting a baby; and they had their house up for sale. Oh, and it was also 2008.
What's the logical thing to add to that mix?
Launching a new company.
But Schutte saw an opportunity. He had started to question the standard approach to software development that resulted in scope creep, projects being over budget, missed deadlines and "solutions" to business problems that didn't solve anything. He was tired of hearing clients being told, "no, it's not possible." He wanted to be in the business of saying "yes" to developing innovative solutions for business challenges.
Schutte started Unstoppable Software to provide clients with ready-to-go software development "factory" that brought the people, processes, tools and resources to the partnership.
Listen in as Schutte joins Talking Business Now host Kelly Scanlon to share:

His journey to becoming an entrepreneur.

His approach and philosophy to serving clients and solving problems—and how it evolved.

Technology innovations many business owners don't have on their radar but should—because they are having an impact anyway.

Why technology makes it possible for a company in a different industry to become your competitor.
