		<description>Heard Eric speak at one of the Heavy Chef sessions a while back, was such an inspiration for those starting out with their own ventures. Great interview, great website! I ordered a shirt a few weeks back so looking forward to getting that in the post!

Just as an aside - I emailed Eric a few months back with a question about technical and functional spec writing for start-ups, and he responded with an incredibly helpful and LONG email with all the insight he has gained over the years and with his many projects. The fact that someone so busy seems to always have the time to assist others and share his knowledge speaks volumes...and probably goes a long way to explain his successes. Super hero indeed - good luck with Springleap, i&#039;m sure it will be a huge success!</description>

		<description>Hi Jamie,

Been awhile - I remember dropping you a mail with a question about toys a year or 2 ago (and think i even gave you a call and we spoke) - what a small world the net makes things!

springleap is coming along great - both the registrations, the designs submitted (quality and quantity) and the sales.

But just like any other business (e or not) it will take awhile to get market penetration.
But we did expect that before we began springleap.

		<description>I was bringing in Threadless T&#039;s for a while and selling them in South Africa, I found it very difficult to sell them(Part of the problem was at least I think was that where I was selling them was probably not the right place).

I would be really interested to find out how successful spring leap has been.

Not to steal any ideas or anything it would just be interesting to know how an ecommerce site of this nature has succeeded or not in the South African market.

I think springleap is a great site and very well done and I think knowing this could indicate the maturity of our E culture in South Africa.

Because from what I can see the site is great , so if it didn’t work it must be the people :-)</description>
