Pierre Frisch has clear vision and is always one to find the simplest and most unexpected solutions. As President and Director of Operations, software to him is a tool that must “work”. Code has to be clean, bugs are to be fought and deadlines have to be kept. Satisfied customers are sPearWay’s keys to success.

With his technical expertise and marketing know-how, Pierre founded sPearWay in 1992 to offer comprehensive software to serve businesses. For 4 years, sPearWay concentrated on custom software for individual businesses and port of scientific applications for the Macintosh Platform.

sPearWay’s range of operations broadened with the creation of the Canadian branch in Vancouver in 1996. Since then, Web applications with built-in electronic commerce, and Websites relying on large database systems are two of sPearWay’s major activities.

In 1999, François Frisch, an engineering graduate from Southampton, Great Britain, enriched the engineering team with his knowledge of QuickTime and WebObjects. He has since broadened his graphic skills and has become a leader in graphic design and 3D modeling. François has become sPearCat’s lead developer, giving as much emphasis to ease of use, as to underlying features.

François is a realist. He manages the technical writing team with rigorous attention to detail. Fueled by his priority to provide merchants the tools to custom design their Web catalog(s), he brings to sPearWay graphic excellence, and gives sPearCat a dynamic, youthful energy.

Carine Frisch also joined the management team in 1999 to coordinate the rest of the business’s activities, ensuring sPearWay’s smooth operation. She comes from a professional background of medical team coordination and supervision, and brings an appreciation and comprehension of (patient) customer loyalty.

As V.P of Information, her role is that of coordinating, accounting, and general personnel and office management.

Carine chairs sPearWay meetings, ensuring every opinion is voiced and fully debated. As such, she is the backbone of every company move.

As sPearCat’s first versions were being brought into the market, Terri Steffensen joined the growing sPearWay management team in April 2004 as V.P of Customer Relations. Business owner, Web designer and technical writer herself, she comes with vast experience of Web design troubleshooting. After authoring the detailed sPearCat Training Manual, she has excellent knowledge of sPearCat and heads the Training Program here in Vancouver.

Terri is key to sPearWay’s customer satisfaction.

With an eye for the “big picture” and over 20 years of experience in the sales industry, Cathy Kuzel came aboard in July 2004 as V.P of Sales and Marketing. She complements sPearWay’s management team with her dynamic personality and know how. Her success as business owner and entrepreneur, and her skill of managing Sales Professionals makes Cathy a valuable addition to sPearWay’s team. She brings a strong combination of creative thought and sales expertise to become the key manager and team motivator.

sPearCat’s sales team grows by the day. Speak with Cathy!

During 2004-2005, sPearWay will be expanding its Development and Web Design Teams. Partners in the US, Canada, Britain and France have joined sPearWay to increase programming potential.
