Today, I’m honored to announce that AccessAlly is joining the Caseproof team led by Blair Williams. That also means that AccessAlly will be a part of Syed Balkhi’s WPBeginner Growth Fund.
This year AccessAlly celebrates 10 years of helping entrepreneurs and educators sell and deliver their offerings, their way.
Back in 2012, Robin and I created the first version of AccessAlly during one frantic weekend to solve a problem causing our website hosting to shut down because of another plugin.
This quick-fix code has expanded into a full-fledged business that powers the learning of over 2,578,387 end users, with a team of amazing individuals making it better every day.
At over 249,643 lines of core code and plenty more features to be developed, this is just the beginning for AccessAlly.
Over the past 10 years, AccessAlly has been at the center of my life as the founder and manager of the business.
The time has come to pass the torch to someone else.
Under this new leadership, you can expect the same level of care and focus on helping you reach your goals.
That’s because the entire team, including my co-founder and lead developer Robin Li, is staying on board.
With added expertise and resources from the team at Caseproof, AccessAlly will be better positioned for the next 10 years of growth and expansion.
What’s changing? Not a whole lot, but AccessAlly is returning to a 5-day workweek, so if you need support on a Friday, we’re there for you.
There were a lot of factors that led to my decision to hand over the reins of AccessAlly to someone else, including wanting to spend more time with my aging parents and young children, while keeping our small farm running.
I believe this is the best move for AccessAlly’s future, and the mission is only going to be invigorated by this transition.
I’m often reminded that the only constant in life is change.
I’m incredibly grateful to have had the pleasure of helping build AccessAlly into what it is today.
I also recognize that I played a small part and that every team member, customer, and partner has co-created and shaped us as a company and product.
May the future be bright, and with Caseproof at the helm, I know it will be.
