LeadBoxer provides sales teams of any size with valuable insights on what their potential customers are interested in before they even reach out.
The software automatically creates visitor profiles for website visitors, captures data on their online behaviour and interactions, and then assigns them a leadscore according to parameters set by the assigned account manager.
With LeadBoxer, sales teams are able to track website visitors, page and video views, and document downloads, as well as measure traffic sources.
The designated sales person can set the importance of various lead properties (industry, no. of page views, etc.) in order to influence the leadscore assigned by LeadBoxer.
When a lead is ready to be qualified, LeadBoxer reports and notifies the salesperson (or people) responsible. The relevant salesperson can engage with their lead directly via the LeadBoxer app, where leads can be reviewed, assigned, or removed at any time.
LeadBoxer integrates with CRMs and other sales tools via an advanced API.

#4 Quip
About the product:
Quip is a team collaboration solution which combines document and spreadsheet creation, and editing with chat and commenting capabilities, to allow teams to communicate about tasks and projects directly while working on them.
Quip enables users to create and edit documents, spreadsheets, and checklists collaboratively in real time, through the ‘Smart Inbox’ interface, with the ability to filter and star documents to speed up searching.
Document revisions are stored so users can track changes, and annotations can be added to spreadsheets and documents. Finished tasks can be checked off on the checklist, keeping all team members informed of which tasks have been completed.
Rather than communicating by email, users can chat directly within a document, with inbuilt 1:1 personal messaging and the ability to comment on any content.
The @mentions also allow users to direct teammates to individual spreadsheet cells, or insert items such as images and code into documents. User-controlled notifications keep team members updated on any messages or mentions.
Quip works across desktop and mobile, with native iOS and Android apps, and with offline functionality, users can work on documents on the go, with changes being updated whenever there is an internet connection.

These are just a few good examples of startups who took their idea and grew it into a full-fledged business. If you search for more examples you’ll find any number of other articles that offer any number of different suggestions. The common denominator for all of the examples however, is that the companies written about all took a business idea, one that people would find value in, and then found the best way to create a business out of it.
Ideas + Ambition + Hard work = Success.
