Ok. Deep breath. I have some news to share in an admittedly unusual way. 📢
After an incredible 8-year journey building the MeasureMatch Marketplace and the AtlasGM platform, the time has come for something very different. 🚀
Here’s the formal scoop: We’re exploring a range of strategic options to maximize value for our shareholders and accelerate our growth trajectory.
And informally? It’s time to find a new home for MeasureMatch, or perhaps just AtlasGM. 🏠
- Reflecting on the Journey
Building MeasureMatch has been among the most rewarding — and challenging — experiences of my life. 💪🌍
It's been a full-on, hairy, pedal-to-the-metal, no-days-off, 10,000 hour global road trip (hat tip to Malcolm Gladwell).
During that ride, I’ve had the privilege of building a business on a deep and broad software platform with a superbly talented team, alongside brilliant angel investors, advisors, and partners who believed in our mission. 🌟
Together, we’ve enabled customers in over 60 countries to connect with top-tier consultants, consultancies, and boutique systems integrators for business-critical software implementations, advanced configurations, migrations, and a ton of data work — fast!
I truly am bursting with pride over what we’ve accomplished. 😊
- The Opportunity
Our platform, powering both the MeasureMatch Marketplace and AtlasGM, is primed for an enterprise ISV - possibly a professional services firm - looking to operate it as a white-label professional services marketplace. This setup allows customers and partners to connect, communicate, and transact seamlessly. 🤝
Rebuilt for scale over the last 24 months and API-ready, the platform has handled thousands of payments, representing millions in professional services spending. It also supports a vibrant ecosystem of nearly 10,000 service providers and client accounts, consistently attracting a large number of new applicants each month. 🔥
- Next Steps
We are actively exploring strategic options and are keen to engage with more business leaders who see the potential in our platform.
This is an excellent opportunity for organizations looking to enhance their partner ecosystem and customer success capabilities, and to unlock substantial new revenue growth. 🌐
- Thank You
To my incredible team, our investors, advisors, customers, and partners—thank you for your support and belief in what we’ve built over the years.
I’m deeply grateful for every contribution to this journey. 🙏

P.S. The headshot dates to when I was toying with the idea of starting MeasureMatch - back in March 2016. I registered the company in May and started building in September that year.
