What can I say about Tony? Oh yeah, that’s my Boy. I’m so proud of him. He says he gave birth to Onwired, I gave birth to him. Keep up the good work
Love ya,
Mom

Thanks to both the interviewer and interviewee for this great piece of information. As an ExpressionEngine focused web studio, I have been looking towards OnWired for inspiration. If I lived in NC, I probably would have never started my own studio and just kept bugging these guys until I joined their team. It is helpful to see how things got started for them, and what tools they use to keep things running. It was an especially great piece of advice to pick some tools to excel in, instead of running around following every latest trend or client request. I have had to say no to a few clients this month, and I’m so glad I did. It freed me up to say yes to a few last-minute clients that needed something quick. Something that I was good at and could get paid well for. Keep up the interviews, I’m eager to hear what others have to share!

Thanks a heap for this interview! A buddy of mine and I are just about to start moonlighting as freelance designers. Both still in school, and sort of nervous. But, this interview was very encouraging!

Thank you again!

Really good interview. I loved how @tonychester was real and didn’t fill the interview with a ton of stock answers. Nice job Jacob and Tony.

Very interesting “dialog”. Where was this company when I was looking for a great job?

Big fan on the OnWired team, they make super websites and it’s amazing to have an insight like this. Something I think SixRevisions could do a lot more of.

Thanks for Sharing this with us Tony & Jacob!
