Thanks for your answer.

Out of interest, were you working in a manufacturing position when you wrote the software for your business or did you spot the opportunity from the outside?

I noticed the opportunity from within, and I jumped ship and went for it. But that was a different time because I was young, no kids or typical bloated American overhead.

That's cool. Unfortunately, I do have overheads, not kids, but enough to prevent me jumping straight out of work into a startup business.
