We're a diverse, U.S. based team that's been creating remarkable solutions in telecom, healthcare, travel, small business and education for more than 45 years, but have never been satisfied with how we could talk with our customers. So now we're singly focused on providing a communication platform that works the way you do, lets your customers reach you how they want, and all at disruptive rates.
Just prior to January, 2000, after building an airline ticketing call center to over $80M in sales per year, Ed and Mary Purkiss were definitely on a roll—that was until she was diagnosed with breast cancer.
After they sold the business, and despite Mary's many treatments and challenges, they went on to create one of the first commercially successful breast cancer awareness websites, as well as Iron Medical Systems, the world's largest infrastructure as a service (IaaS) company—specifically serving radiation oncology practices and delivering treatment to as many as 30,000 patients across the United States every day. Combining their unique experiences and expertise, the couple called upon trusted members of previous teams to form Foxie and tackle the challenge of making it easy to communicate with your customers.
All of us at Foxie live and work by a set of Core Values, which will tell you a lot about the character of our team and how we choose to behave in business. Every decision we make is guided by these well-established principles, which have served us faithfully for over 30 years.
Have passion for life and passion for work. Be awake and available when life, teammates and clients call.
Both time and opportunity are fleeting. Don't allow inaction to create regret.
Be willing to take chances. Willing to risk. Willing to fail. Innovation is in our DNA. Listen to your heart.
Live in integrity. Trust others and be trustworthy. Our word is our bond, regardless of how others behave. Communicate intentions honestly and live up to them.
Make sure that we can be proud and comfortable with what we've said and done - whether anyone is watching or not.
Be willing to look at challenges openly and with your teammates. Don't allow feelings to live in the shadows. Remember to be tough on the challenges and easy on the people.
Once a challenge has been resolved, let it go. If you can't yet, then it's not resolved.
Remember why we are together. Remember to whom we serve. Remember that every action can either benefit or harm our mission.
Keep and share a sense of humor. Don't miss an opportunity to create a smile. There will always be time for more business, but never enough time to enjoy each other.
