Our Three Partners

SmevDev was founded on the belief that the company has three partners that we work for and with to ensure our success.

• Our Customers
Our customers are more important to us than we can possibly express. We depend solely upon our customers for our direction and focus.
• Our Employees
We recognize that we cannot go anywhere without employees who also believe in our vision. We also know that employees who are appreciated will work more efficiently, creatively, and with more purpose.
• Our Community
We know that our vision, our pride, and our stability are all grounded in our community. Because of this, we vow to strengthen and stabilize our community in whatever ways we can.

How This Impacts Us

Because of our belief in our three partners, our company has done a number of things which would be considered unusual by today's standards. Because we refuse to allow outside parties have more influence over our direction than our customers, our company will not borrow money. This is not an easy decision, but one which will have a lasting impact on both our employees and our customers.

It is also a decision that our friends seem to agree with. In order to have enough funds for web-hosting this site, we sold 33 SmevDev shirts. You are, literally, looking at the supportive response of our partners. They bought shirts in suppport of our conscious decision to not put SmevDev in a position to be leveraged by outsiders. With the support of our friends and allies, we can be sure that SmevDev always moves in a way which will benefit our customers and employees; without being distracted by the requirements of a lender or shareholders.
