A peek into the thoughts of the man behind Milk Carton Designs

Recently, I was invited by a good friend (Hi, Michael ;D ) to join a new “startup,” so to speak, with an interesting concept. It’s like any web dev/design startup, where people hire us to build and design a site for them, we get paid, and we do what we love. However, this start-up had a twist: its primary focus was building sites around Wordpress. I, obviously, took the job.

Freshly Pressed, as stated above, focuses its design efforts around Wordpress. We will offer professional-quality Wordpress themes for a fee, as well as hiring out for more customized sites. This is seemingly, though not a completely original idea, the only business of its kind surrounding Wordpress. We hope this will bring about amazing results. The people we have brought in are yanked straight out of the Wordpress community (mostly from the Wordpress IRC channel) and know what they’re doing. I am proud to be involved with this project, and with the help of my colleagues, hope to bring this startup from an idea to an amazing success.
