From our CEO
Helping people be successful & enjoy work
I’m happy that Foster Commerce has a core set of skills and standards that allow us to be people who help merchants achieve their dreams.
I’m passionate about helping clients run successful businesses and enjoy their work. I want the same for my employees — that’s the core of Foster Commerce’s mission.
So, I’m not here to win accolades or make a ton of money. At the end of my life, I want people to say things like, “He cared.” That would be the main thing.
And that’s what Foster Commerce means to me.
Here are thoughts from the rest of the team. . . .
