Volusion Then and Now
Kevin Sproles started coding and designing websites because it was his passion, and that passion quickly grew into a service. Out of the hundred clients he soon acquired, most started to request the same feature- a shopping cart. Shopping cart software was in its beginning stages and always up for a challenge, Kevin took on the endeavor. With very little money and a great deal of perseverance, he started coding shopping cart software and has yet to stop! This motivation has led to several awards, including BusinessWeek’s “Best 25 Entrepreneurs under 25.â€
Soon after Volusion's creation in 1999, an important member joined the team. After choosing to leave a successful career at Dell, where he co-managed the Large Opportunity Group in the Business Sales Division, Clay Olivier and his wife journeyed around the world. The goal of his travels was to find something new to be passionate about, something he would enjoy doing for a living. Clay returned to his Texas roots with a vision to launch an environmentally sensitive online store. Impressed with its software and features, he chose Volusion to build his business. The owner and the new customer began to talk on a regular basis- Clay offering his marketing expertise, Kevin with tips on Volusion’s software. They met in person and the rest is history. Or better yet, it’s the present and the future.
Volusion started out working by request in order to build software to fit client’s needs and Volusion still builds its software this way. When Volusion first started, Kevin often stayed up all night implementing a new feature. He notes that his favorite thing to tell clients was, “Remember that feature you asked about yesterday? Here you go.†Volusion developers continually implement new features and functionality to benefit those who know it best- their clients.
